Privilege Abuse

Learn how Privileged Access Management can protect your organization from credential privilege abuse.

How does Privilege Abuse take place?

In many IT environments, the principle of least privilege often isn’t upheld. Several reasons lead to users receiving more privileges than necessary.

For instance, the development team might lack clarity on the precise permissions to assign. Or they might be aware, but face time constraints in implementing them.

Granting excessive permissions poses two major issues:

1. About 80% of attacks on corporate data stem from current or past employees.

2. Excessive or unrevoked permissions make it easier for malicious actions to occur.

How does Segura® solve this problem?

The Segura® solution can help your organization prevent privilege abuse by:

Implementating the principle of least privilege.

Reviewing and removing unnecessary access.

Segregating resources in the environment.

Conducting audit trails to detect non-compliances.

Adopting real-time alerts through pattern analysis to detect suspicious activity.

PAM Core – Managing the complete lifecycle of high-level privileged credentials

Centralized access management ensures maximum protection and control over generic and high-privilege credentials. It offers secure storage, segregates access, and provides full traceability of usage.

When configuring access groups, you can define administrator users who are allowed physical access passwords, plus user groups who can use the solution's remote access for accessing target devices or systems.

Every case can incorporate multi-level approval workflows and include reasons provided by the requesting user for added transparency.
