Explanation of Privileged Access Management Operations
In an effort to bolster the security of privileged accounts, a new whitepaper, the PAM Maturity Model, has been released. This comprehensive guide offers valuable recommendations for organizations that are currently securing their privileged accounts in a limited manner, manually setting up privileges, maintaining minimal complexity requirements for password creation, providing excess privileges, sharing privileges among multiple administrators, neglecting to remove privileges when users leave, and lacking visibility over the breadth of web applications in use. Additionally, the whitepaper addresses organizations with numerous, disconnected password management and access tools and practices, which fail to differentiate access based on roles, lack visibility over account usage, and struggle to produce reports or compliance documentation.
The PAM Maturity Model emphasizes the importance of expanding an organization's social security program to address a wider range of privileged accounts and associated risks. However, the whitepaper does not specify which organizations should implement these changes.
By following the recommendations outlined in the PAM Maturity Model, organizations can systematically lower risk, increase business agility, and improve operational efficiency. To get a copy of the whitepaper, interested parties are encouraged to visit Delinea to embark on their journey towards enhanced security.
