Maximum Protection for Privileged Access
Privileged Access Management (PAM)
Privileged access and administrator accounts pose a particularly high security risk due to their extensive permissions. Professional Privileged Access Management (PAM) provides comprehensive control over these critical access points, reduces security risks, and meets compliance requirements. Our experts support you in designing and implementing a tailored PAM solution that combines the highest security standards with operational efficiency.
- ✓Comprehensive control of privileged access
- ✓Protection against internal and external threats
- ✓Fulfillment of regulatory compliance requirements
- ✓Complete logging and traceability

Expert Tip
Start your PAM project with a comprehensive inventory of all privileged accounts – including hidden and forgotten ones. Most organizations significantly underestimate the actual number of their privileged access points. For implementation, we recommend a phased approach: start with the most critical systems and access points and gradually expand the scope. Just-in-Time privileges, where administrator rights are granted only temporarily and purpose-bound, have proven to be a particularly effective measure to reduce the attack surface. Ensure that your PAM solution is not only technically robust but also user-friendly – only then will you achieve high acceptance among your administrators.

Projects
Our approach to PAM projects follows a proven methodology that we adapt to your specific requirements and circumstances. We combine technical expertise with process understanding to develop a holistic solution that meets security requirements while supporting operational workflows.
Our Approach:
Phase 1: Analysis and Assessment - Identification and classification of privileged accounts and access, evaluation of current security measures, analysis of organizational and technical framework conditions, identification of risks and vulnerabilities, definition of security requirements and objectives, creation of a requirements catalog
Phase 2: Strategy Development and Design - Development of a PAM strategy and roadmap, design of a targeted PAM architecture, definition of processes for managing privileged access, design of roles and responsibilities, selection of suitable technologies and solutions, creation of an implementation plan
Phase 3: Implementation - Building the PAM infrastructure, setup of password vaults and credential management, implementation of session management and recording, configuration of access policies and workflows, integration into existing systems and processes, building reporting and alerting
Phase 4: Rollout and Adoption - Conducting pilot projects with selected user groups, adjustment and optimization based on feedback, phased expansion to all relevant systems and users, training of administrators and users, establishment of support and escalation processes, accompanying change management measures
Phase 5: Operations and Continuous Improvement - Transition to regular operations, establishment of a continuous improvement process, regular review and optimization of configurations and policies, adaptation to changing threats and requirements, integration of new systems and technologies, support for audits and compliance evidence
"In our PAM projects, we consistently see that the key to success lies in the balanced combination of security and user-friendliness. A PAM solution can be as secure as possible – if it disproportionately complicates the daily work of administrators, they will look for workarounds. We therefore recommend involving administrators early in the project and taking their requirements and concerns seriously. A tiered security approach has also proven particularly effective: maximum security with strict four-eyes principle and session recording for highly critical systems, more pragmatic solutions for less critical systems that keep administrative effort within reasonable limits."

Our Services
We offer you tailored solutions for your digital transformation
PAM Strategy & Architecture
We support you in developing a holistic PAM strategy and designing an appropriate PAM architecture. This forms the foundation for all further measures and ensures that your PAM initiative is aligned with your specific security requirements, IT landscape, and organizational framework.
- Analysis of the current privileged access landscape
- Development of a comprehensive PAM strategy and roadmap
- Design of a scalable PAM architecture
- Definition of PAM policies and standards
Credential Management & Password Vault
Secure management of privileged credentials is a central component of any PAM solution. We support you in implementing a password vault and comprehensive credential management that ensures the highest security for privileged credentials while providing user-friendly processes for their use.
- Setup of a secure password vault
- Implementation of automatic password rotation
- Establishment of credential check-out processes
- Integration with existing identity management systems
Session Management & Monitoring
Monitoring and controlling privileged sessions is crucial for preventing and detecting abusive activities. We help you implement comprehensive session management that enables granular control over privileged activities and creates complete traceability for audit and compliance purposes.
- Building session management and session gateway
- Implementation of session recording and monitoring
- Establishment of session approval workflows
- Integration into security monitoring and SIEM systems
Just-in-Time & Least Privilege Access
Minimizing permanently assigned privileged rights is one of the most effective measures to reduce the attack surface. We support you in implementing Just-in-Time and Least-Privilege concepts that provide privileged rights only temporarily, purpose-bound, and to the minimum extent required.
- Design and implementation of Just-in-Time privileges
- Implementation of granular permission concepts
- Establishment of approval workflows for privileged activities
- Automatic deactivation of temporary permissions
PAM for Cloud & DevOps
Modern IT environments with cloud services, DevOps pipelines, and containerized applications place special demands on PAM. We help you implement PAM concepts and solutions specifically designed to secure privileged access in these dynamic environments.
- Securing cloud administrator access
- PAM integration into CI/CD pipelines and DevOps workflows
- Management of API keys and service accounts
- Automated secrets management in containerized environments
PAM Governance & Compliance
Comprehensive PAM requires not only technical solutions but also effective governance and clear processes. We support you in establishing PAM governance that meets compliance requirements, defines clear responsibilities, and ensures continuous improvement of your PAM measures.
- Development of a PAM governance framework
- Implementation of compliance reporting and evidence
- Building PAM audit and control mechanisms
- Integration of PAM into overall risk management
