Apply least privilege security controls. Protect privileged access across all identities, infrastructure and apps, from the endpoint to the cloud.
Privileged Access Management & Privileged Identity Management (PAM & PIM)
- Privileged account and session management (PASM): Privileged accounts are protected by vaulting their credentials. Access to those accounts is then brokered for human users, services and applications. Privileged session management (PSM) functions establish sessions with possible privileged credentials’ injection into sessions, and full session recording. Passwords and other credentials for privileged accounts are actively managed, such as being changed at definable intervals or after specific events. Optionally, PASM solutions can also provide application-to-application password management (AAPM) and/or zero-install remote privileged access features for IT staff and third parties that do not require a VPN.
- Privilege elevation and delegation management (PEDM): Specific privileges are granted on the managed system by host-based agents to logged-in users. PEDM tools provide host-based command control (filtering), application allow/deny/isolate controls, and/or privilege elevation which allows particular commands to be run with a higher level of privileges. PEDM tools must execute on the actual operating system (kernel or process level). Command control through protocol filtering is explicitly excluded from this definition, because the point of control is less reliable. Optionally, PEDM tools can also provide file integrity monitoring features.
- Remote privileged access management (RPAM): RPAM tools enable access for remote privileged users through session brokering, credential injection/vaulting and strong authentication capabilities, which mitigate many of the risks of unmanaged devices employed by those users. These tools also provide controls for establishing, monitoring and recording remote privileged sessions to specific targets and eliminate the need for VPN and provide more secure access to critical systems. The tools also enable alignment with zero-trust architectures, because there is no implicit trust in corporate networks or endpoint devices. Most stand-alone RPAM tools offer multifactor authentication (MFA) features to provide effective protection against account takeover (ATO) threats.
- Secrets management: Credentials (such as passwords, OAuth tokens and Secure Shell [SSH] keys) and secrets for software and machines are programmatically managed, stored and retrieved through APIs and software development kits (SDKs). Trust is established and brokered for the purpose of exchanging secrets and to manage authorizations and related functions between different nonhuman entities such as machines, containers, applications, services, scripts, processes and DevSecOps pipelines. Secrets management is often used in dynamic and agile environments such as IaaS, PaaS and container management platforms.
- Cloud infrastructure entitlement management (CIEM): An adjacent cloud security area, CIEM offerings provide administration time controls for the governance of entitlements in hybrid and multicloud IaaS. This helps mitigate identity risks associated with permissions to virtual infrastructure (IaaS). CIEM solutions typically use analytics, machine learning (ML) and other methods to detect anomalies in account entitlements, like accumulation of privileges, and dormant and unnecessary entitlements. CIEM provides remediation and enforcement of least privilege approaches in cloud infrastructures.
