Privileged Access Management (PAM) is crucial for protecting sensitive information by minimizing unauthorized access through principles such as least privilege and multi-factor authentication. Key features include secure credential management, automated password rotation, and continuous monitoring of privileged user activities. Implementing PAM strategies helps reduce risks, strengthen security postures, and ensure compliance with regulations.
