Privileged Access Without Shared Passwords
A Secure, Control and Prove framework for privileged access, and how Securita360 implements it. Shared admin passwords, standing access and unrecorded sessions turn small mistakes into breaches. This paper describes a three-part framework for privileged access and shows how each part is implemented.
What you will learn
Inside the paper
- Why shared credentials and standing access are hard to defend
- A Secure, Control and Prove framework you can apply to any PAM programme
- How credentials can be used in a session without the user ever seeing them
- How approvals, time-boxed access and command control work together
- An adoption roadmap and a vendor-neutral checklist
Key takeaways
Three ideas to take away
Keep the credential out of the user's hands: inject it server-side.
Make access time-boxed and approval-based, and make approvals hard to game.
Keep evidence you can verify: recordings with integrity values and a tamper-evident audit trail.
