The Challenge
Privileged accounts like domain admin accounts, root accounts and superuser accounts, are the preferred targets for attackers these days. Why? Because it gives them the “keys to the kingdom,” allowing them to gain access to your most sensitive and critical information. When attackers gain these credentials, they can exploit your most sensitive information and critical systems. Privileged access gives them power to alter data, change configurations or even shut down your operations. Masquerading as privileged users, they can cover their tracks and go undetected for months or longer.
Privileged access represents a significant security risk for every organization, and privileged access management (PAM) is a discipline that must be considered a core part of every security program. While more organizations are recognizing the need to establish a practice to manage the risk of privileged access, the approach of many organizations is to simply buy a PAM tool. But, without investing the time on the underlying discipline of defining and understanding your specific risk for PAM access, implementing a PAM tool can’t solve the problem of privileged access.
