First, terminology - there really is no such thing as privileged identity management. PAM systems broker access to existing accounts and other entitlements - they do not normally create or manage the lifecycles of identities (login accounts, etc.) which is what identity management means. That's just a misnomer introduced and later abandoned by some vendors.
As for the link between ML/AI and PAM - it is basically to identify unusual but authorized access and trigger either extra authorization or at least alerts.
It's normal that John connects to root on the Linux server M-F in the morning, but it's really strange at 3AM on Saturday, so invite John's manager to approve the odd-looking request.
@Idan Shoham PIM could mean the Identity Management itself is controlled by privileged access controls. We have a secure configuration storage solution that would provide just such an implementation. Control of access to the Identity Management process could be controlled by our platform.

Typically any new latest PAM comes with a great number of options for automation. Integration with JSON scripts is also possible. It depends on what is the use case you want to achieve. If an ML can trigger AI to send some request to PAM then based upon the input received and configured automation rules in PAM the action will be taken. BeyondTrust PAM can do this.
AI & ML helps in proactive threat intelligence modules, risk rating. Also, to automate operations. For eg CyberArk has a module names PTA ( privilege threat analytics )

Hello peers,
I work for a large computer software company and I am currently researching PAM solutions.
Which solution do you prefer: ARCON Privileged Access Management or Microsoft PAM? What are the pros and cons of each solution?
Thank you for your help.
Hello Siby, I suggest looking for PAM-leading solutions, both solutions you have mentioned are not recommended, Microsoft doesn't have a PAM solution and Arcon won't fulfill the local compliance requirements like NESA, etc.... check solutions that are leading in the PAM area.

Hi,
If you share the devices/asset category may get the best suitable answer from this community. Here I can help you with the system privilege maintenance. If your organization has a Windows and Linux base, then you can choose the Delinea Server Suite solution to manage all privileged users. Why is Delinea Server Suite best for your organization? I hope your Windows asset is managed by a domain controller that manages your users and also manages the group policy. To use Server Suite, you can join your Linux systems in your domain controller by creating the zoning policy. To use this solution you can also manage the MFA/2FA in your all system (Windows/Linux). When a privileged user uses any administrative command in that time, approval is required by an admin from Server Suite. The admin can also create the workflow to execute any command needed to give the security question before executing that. So you can minimize your effort when you connect your Linux environment and workgroups assets in Domain Controller and based on your policy, you create the group policy for users and assign it from a single pane of glass.
Hello, I think you would find a lot of value in taking a look at Remediant's solution called SecureONE. As you may know, lateral movement is the step that makes domain-wide attacks possible. We specialize in stopping lateral movement by discovering standing privileges and removing them. These days, a compromise of one machine is almost guaranteed, so it's important to see where else on the network do the compromised credentials have access. We give you visibility of where standard users' credentials as well as administrators' credentials have access to within your organization. Many customers do not realize the spread and severity of standing privileges, even when they may already have a vault and application control in place. If this sounds any bit interesting, please visit our website and schedule a demo. Thank you!

Cyber Security has become one of the top priorities in today’s hyper-connected fast-growing technologies like cloud, mobile, and virtualization, making the lives of security professionals more challenging. Building multiple layers of security on the perimeter such as VPNs, access controls, firewalls, IDS, IPS, SIEMs and email gateways are no longer considered fully effective. It needs to be c...

Privileged account management can be defined as managing and auditing account and data access by privileged users.
