Overview

Privileged Access Management (PAM) capability provides core features and functions that manage and protect system and enterprise-defined privileged account credentials or secrets (including SSH keys).

It includes generation, vaulting, rotation and retrieval for interactive access to these credentials by human or software users.

Also the rotation of service and software accounts (that is, embedded accounts) on target systems. These functions require the ability to access the PAM tool through a web console or API at minimum.
