3.  Sometimes, unscrupulous people steal the log in credentials of the employees of
an organization in order to hack into the servers and steal the data.
Compromised identities of employees are new threats for corporate
organizations to counter.
 Advanced cyber attacks are automated, persistent, and in 99% cases successful.
Security of IT infrastructure cannot be guaranteed solely on the basis of
firewalls because they can only react to previously identified threats. Once the
attackers penetrate your computer system, they can easily explore the whole
network and exploit unsecured privileged credentials as they wish.
 Therefore, Identity Management is a solution to every threat that can arise due
to compromised identity. It is defined as an administrative area, dealing with
identification of individuals in a system (an enterprise) and controlling their
access to resources within that system. Access is controlled by associating user
rights and restrictions with the established identity.

4. Privileged Identity Management (PIM) is subcategory of Identity Management. Its
purpose is to focus on privileged accounts, important accounts used by the team of IT
administrators or sometime, people in the top brass of the organization. It also focuses
on select business users and applications that are crucial to the business operations of
the organization.
Privileged accounts are targeted by external attackers surpassing firewall and
malicious insiders (rogue employees) who have access to sensitive data.
PIM Solutions ensure security for user accounts in the applications that are a part of IT
Infrastructure.

5. PIM Solution manages the lifecycle of the privileged credentials on any cross-
platform enterprise through the following process:
1. Discovery stage
PIM identifies and documents all critical IT assets, along with their privileged
accounts and their interdependencies.
2. Remediation
PIM Solutions enforce rules for password complexity, diversity, change
frequency, and synchronization of changes across all dependencies.
3. Delegation
PIM Solutions delegate access to privileged credentials in order to ensure that
only authorized users or appropriate personnel, using the least privilege
required, can log into IT assets.
4. Tracking
PIM creates Audits and alerts all potential threats so that the requester, purpose,
and duration of each privileged access request can be documented and
monitored.
