Privilege Management Infrastructure

Privilege Management Infrastructure ensures users have access and privileges required to execute their duties and responsibilities with Identity and Access Management (IAM) functions such as identity management, authentication services, authorization services, and privilege usage management. This security discipline enables the right individuals to access the right resources at the right times for the right reasons. It addresses the mission-critical need to ensure appropriate access to resources across increasingly heterogeneous technology environments, and to meet increasingly rigorous compliance requirements.

This security practice is a crucial undertaking for any enterprise.

The technical controls of Privilege Management Infrastructure focus on identity provisioning, password and multi-factor authentication, policy management and more.

It is also increasingly business-aligned, and it requires business skills, not just technical expertise.
