The expansion of hybrid infrastructures has surpassed the capabilities of traditional governance systems, requiring advanced solutions to ensure security. By implementing cloud-based Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions, corporations can fortify their critical infrastructure to mitigate ever-evolving risks, says Capgemini.
The transition toward centralized identity security models addresses the technical requirement for absolute visibility over digital assets. According to Capgemini, PAM enables “granular access controls, which prevent unauthorized access to account credentials, while ensuring authorized users have the necessary access for legitimate business purposes.” This approach mitigates the inherent vulnerability of high-level accounts that represent the most critical attack vector for network infrastructures.
Capgemini reports a success story in which an organization faced significant operational challenges, including limited documentation of its database architecture and a lack of monitoring over privileged access. Furthermore, the sale of public IP addresses exposed management servers to potential interceptions. The migration to an Identity as a Service (IDaaS) model became imperative to ensure business continuity and resilience, says the company.
With this client, Capgemini implemented PAM through three strategic phases designed to transform the security architecture. Initially, the cybersecurity identity and access management team at Capgemini conducted a six-week technical audit to diagnose deficiencies in the legacy system. This process resulted in a migration to a cloud architecture hosted within the Capgemini cloud. This transition eliminated dependencies on obsolete local hardware and ensured automatic security updates.
During the technical development, the team executed the evaluation and integration of 25 critical databases. These included Oracle, DB2, and MS SQL environments. A notable technical aspect involved the creation of…
