Privileged Identity Management
Also known as: PIM / PAM
Governance
Privileged Identity Management (and the broader category of Privileged Access Management) replaces permanent admin role assignments with just-in-time activation: users request elevated access when needed, for a limited time, with approval and full logging.
Why it matters
Standing privilege is a standing risk. Just-in-time access shrinks the window an attacker can exploit and produces a clean audit trail of who elevated, when, and why.
