Netwrix Privileged Access Management (PAM) enables organizations to discover, control, and monitor privileged accounts across endpoints, servers, and hybrid environments. It continuously identifies unmanaged and excessive privileges to help reduce credential misuse and limit lateral movement.

At the core of the solution is a Zero Standing Privilege model that removes persistent administrative rights. Instead of relying on long-lived privileged accounts, access is granted on a time-bound, just-in-time basis only when required. Privileged accounts are dynamically created, elevated, and disabled per session, significantly reducing persistent attack surface exposure.
Netwrix PAM combines just-in-time elevation, credential vaulting, session monitoring, multi-tier approvals, and post-session cleanup to support least privilege across administrative workflows. Real-time session recording, centralized policy controls, and detailed audit trails provide centralized visibility into privileged activity and strengthen operational oversight.
While traditional vault-centric approaches focus primarily on password storage, Netwrix PAM removes standing privileges and reduces attack paths rather than simply managing them. As part of the broader Netwrix identity security portfolio, it integrates with identity governance, directory security, and threat detection capabilities to deliver coordinated protection across hybrid environments.
Comprehensive reporting and session-level evidence support regulatory and governance requirements, helping organizations demonstrate control over elevated access during audits aligned with frameworks such as SOX, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and ISO standards. By eliminating permanent administrative rights and applying strict, policy-driven access controls, Netwrix PAM helps materially reduce risk across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud-connected environments.
