PAM for Access Management FAQs

Have questions? We’ve got answers.

How does Netwrix handle vault integration for PAM?

How does Netwrix Privilege Secure support Zero Trust PAM?

How does Netwrix Privilege Secure make our environment more secure than other solutions?

Unlike traditional vaults, Netwrix Privilege Secure is a privileged access management tool built on Zero Standing Privilege. It reduces the lateral movement attack surface by removing privilege when not in active use and creating it on-demand with just enough access to do the job before removing it again at the end of the session. Additionally, Netwrix Privilege Secure includes session management tools for monitoring and recording privileged activities, for audit and forensics.

What is the danger of a compromised domain admin account?

In today’s AD-connected infrastructure, a compromised domain admin account gives an adversary the keys to the kingdom. Many organizations have an overabundance of users in the Domain Admin group; any one of these user accounts can be compromised via a plethora of lateral movement attack tools freely available on the internet. Lateral movement is an opportunistic type of attack that leverages privilege to move from system to system. Netwrix Privilege Secure prevents these attacks by removing privilege when not in use.
