Privileged Access Management

Control the accounts attackers want most

Overview

Control the accounts attackers want most

Privileged accounts are the target in almost every serious breach. We design and run PAM programmes on Idira Self-Hosted and Privilege Cloud that bring those accounts under management and keep them there.

Module deep-dive

The components, and what we do with them

Digital Vaultcore

Hardened, isolated credential store with its own OS baseline, firewall and proprietary protocol. Clustered or DR-paired for continuity.

Cluster Vault or DR Vault with PAReplicate
Vault hardening and network isolation
Safe design by ownership and sensitivity
Master and DR key handling procedures

Central Policy ManagerCPM

Rotates, verifies and reconciles credentials on schedule or on event across every platform type, with dependency-aware change for service accounts.

Platform policies and exception handling
Reconcile with reconciliation accounts
Dual-account and dependency rotation
Custom plugins for unsupported targets

Password Vault Web AccessPVWA

Portal and REST API for requests, approvals, connections and administration; SSO and MFA in front of every privileged action.

SAML / OIDC SSO with step-up MFA
Dual control and exclusive access
REST API automation and PACLI
Load-balanced, hardened IIS

Privileged Session ManagerPSM · PSMP · HTML5

Isolates and records RDP, SSH, database and web sessions so the credential never touches the endpoint; PSMP for native SSH, HTML5 Gateway for browser-only access.

Session recording, keystroke and SQL audit
Live monitoring and termination
Universal and custom connection components
HTML5 Gateway for clientless access

Privileged Threat AnalyticsPTA

Baselines privileged behaviour and raises risk on anomalies — unmanaged access, suspicious commands, Kerberos attacks — with automatic response into the vault.

Unmanaged privileged access detection
Golden ticket and pass-the-hash indicators
Auto-suspend and credential rotation on risk
SIEM forwarding and correlation

Remote Access / Vendor PAMJIT

VPN-less, agent-less privileged access for vendors and contractors through the platform, time-bound, approved and fully recorded.

Biometric mobile authentication
Zero-standing vendor accounts
Recorded, isolated sessions
Automatic revocation on expiry

Topology

Primary, DR and satellite vaults
Component HA behind load balancers

ITSM — ServiceNow ticket validation on request
MFA — Idira Identity, RADIUS, SAML providers

Operations

Discovery-led onboarding waves by account owner
Break-glass and emergency procedures
Backup, restore and DR failover testing
Version currency inside vendor support

What we deliver

Capabilities

Discovery and onboardingFind privileged accounts across Windows, Unix, databases, network devices and cloud, and onboard them in controlled waves.

Credential vaulting and rotationCentralised vaulting with policy-driven rotation, reconciliation and dual control where required.

Session isolation and recordingBrokered sessions through PSM and PSMP so credentials never reach the endpoint, with full audit trail.

Just-in-time elevationMove from standing privilege to time-bound access aligned to zero trust.

Threat analyticsBehavioural detection on privileged sessions to catch misuse early.

Migration and modernisationSelf-Hosted to Privilege Cloud, legacy PAM to Idira, and version currency programmes.

Vendor and third-party remote accessJust-in-time, VPN-less privileged access for vendors and contractors, every session recorded and revoked automatically when it ends.

Our approach

How we approach privileged access management

Most PAM estates we inherit are somewhere between forty and sixty percent onboarded, with the remainder living in spreadsheets and shared mailboxes. The gap is rarely a tooling problem. It is a discovery, ownership and change-management problem, and that is where a specialist practice earns its fee.

Where we start

A short assessment establishes what is actually under management, what is not, and why. The output is a prioritised onboarding plan and the platform changes needed to support it.

Ready to reduce identity risk?

If privileged access is hard to explain or credentials are hard to control, your organisation is exposed. That risk can be reduced with the right design and hands-on delivery.

How we work

These principles guide every engagement

They define how we design, deliver and operate identity security for our customers.

Certified, not just familiar

Guardian-led, with CDE credentials across PAM, Privilege Cloud, EPM and Secrets Manager, kept current on every release.

Architect-led delivery

Design is reviewed and signed off before anything is built, so what goes live is what was agreed.

Written scope, fixed price

Deliverables, timeline and price in writing before work starts. No open-ended retainers.

Enablement built in

Your team is trained during delivery, so what we build does not depend on us to keep running.

What we walk into

Sound familiar?

The situations that start most of our engagements — in the words we hear them.

Enterprise · secrets

“Human access is vaulted. Application credentials are still in config files.”

Financial services · migration

“We want Privilege Cloud but cannot lose session history in the migration.”

Manufacturing · plugins

“Three of our critical applications have no supported CPM platform, so they were skipped.”

Technology · cloud access

“Every AWS account has a permanent admin role. We know it is wrong and have not had time to fix it.”
