Privileged Access Management Maturity in the Cloud

A framework for PAM success

Cyber attackers have been wildly successful in their efforts to exploit and attack privileged access. It’s estimated that 80% of data breaches involve privilege misuse or compromise. The analyst firm Gartner lists Privileged Access Management (PAM) as a critical infrastructure service and a high-priority cyber defense capability. IT is undergoing rapid digital transformation, bringing more cloud infrastructure and apps online every day. Traditional, siloed identity tools are struggling to meet the pace of this cloud and SaaS adoption. 

Most organizations have implemented some form of PAM, but often these initiatives fail to live up to expectations or were never aligned with business needs in the first place.  

As a leading innovator in cloud-native PAM, Saviynt has developed a Cloud Privileged Access Management Maturity Model to help organizations better align PAM programs to their security goals and identify gaps in their identity tool suite. Using Saviynt’s cloud PAM maturity model as a roadmap, organizations can work toward implementing least privilege across their entire ecosystem, including multi-cloud, SaaS, and IaaS. This cloud PAM approach can help automate the underlying set of tasks for each area.

  • Reduce the blast radius by removing standing administrative rights from users
  • Integrate privileged and standard user identity management to elevate roles with the least possible privilege
  • Make Just-in-Time PAM a reality in infrastructure, clouds, and applications

Wherever you are on your cloud PAM maturity journey, Saviynt can help. Whether you need to understand current risks, consolidate and modernize your identity program, or enhance cloud adoption, now is the time to discover the difference of a cloud-powered PAM solution.
