Description: Privileged Identity Management (PIM) is a security feature that helps organizations manage, control, and monitor access to sensitive resources by privileged accounts. This approach is fundamental in a Zero Trust security environment, where it is assumed that no entity, whether internal or external, is trustworthy by default. PIM enables organizations to establish strict policies on who can access what resources and under what conditions. This includes implementing multi-factor authentication, password rotation, and access auditing. By effectively managing privileged identities, organizations can reduce the risk of unauthorized access and minimize the impact of potential security breaches. PIM not only focuses on protecting credentials but also provides visibility into the use of privileged accounts, allowing administrators to detect anomalous behavior and respond quickly to security incidents. In a world where cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated, Privileged Identity Management becomes an essential component of any organization’s security strategy, ensuring that only the right individuals have access to critical resources at the right time.
