Gartner defines the privileged access management (PAM) market as tools that “discover, manage and govern privileged accounts on multiple systems and applications; control access to privileged accounts, including shared and emergency access; and monitor, record, audit and analyze privileged access, sessions and actions.”

PAM is often equated with Identity and Access Management (IAM), a similar practice. In order to qualify for inclusion in this quadrant, vendors must deliver a service that features the following characteristics:

  • Tools to discover, map, and report any privileged accounts on multiple devices, applications, endpoints, and systems
  • A hardened, secured, and highly available vault for storing secrets and credentials
  • User interfaces to review privileged credentials
  • Tools to automatically rotate and manage credentials for service, administrative, device, system, and application accounts
  • Support for role-based administration including centralized policy management
  • Reporting and analytics tools of privileged accounts
