Overview of PAM {{ currentPage ? currentPage.title : "" }}

The cybersecurity techniques and technologies known as "privileged access management" (PAM) are used to exercise control over elevated ("privileged") access and permissions for users, accounts, processes, and systems throughout an IT environment. PAM assists companies in reducing their organization's attack surface and preventing, or at least mitigating, the damage caused by outside attacks as well as inner carelessness or wrongdoing by adjusting the amount of privileged access controls.

The enforcement of least privilege, which is defined as limiting access rights and permissions for users, accounts, applications, systems, devices (like IoT), and computing processes to the absolute minimum necessary to perform routine, authorized activities, is a key objective of privilege management despite the fact that it encompasses a variety of strategies.
