In this article published in Global Security Mag, Fabien Tézé, Ignimission PROTEC’s Product Owner, reviews 4 essential steps to start a PAM project in the best conditions. Privileged access management is one of the key points in the implementation of a corporate security strategy.

In a PAM implementation, some of the aspects of the project, such as data collection, analytics, and provisioning, can be facilitated with a software solution of some sort.

There is a third option: building it yourself. Whatever the choice you will make (Excel, market solution, or internally developed), always keep in mind that the chosen solution must meet the ..read more

For many of us, cybersecurity, and in particular Privileged Access Management (PAM), seems like a technical topic. From an executive’s perspective, it’s about ensuring the security of data and accounts by granting “privileges” to users (human or machine) only on the systems they are authorized to access.

There are many benefits to implementing a PAM solution, such as identity theft prevention, late ..read more
