Managed PIM. Powerful access, only when it is needed.
Standing admin rights are a gift to an attacker: a privileged account sitting idle until someone steals it. Privileged Identity Management grants elevated access just in time, for just long enough, then takes it away. We run it for you.
Every account with standing admin rights is a target sitting in the open. Most of the time that power is not even being used, it is just waiting to be stolen. Access that exists all the time is access that can be abused at any time.
Privileged Identity Management flips the model. Nobody holds standing privilege. When someone needs elevated access, they request it, it is approved, and it is granted for a fixed window, then automatically removed. The powerful account exists only for the minutes it is actually in use, which is exactly when an attacker cannot plan around it. We design, deploy, and run PIM as a managed service.
From request to automatic revoke
Privilege is borrowed, never owned. Every elevation follows the same controlled path.
Request
A user asks for a specific role, with a reason, when a task needs it.
Approve
An approver signs off, or policy auto-approves low-risk roles, with MFA.
Activate
Access is granted for a fixed time window, scoped to exactly what is needed.
Revoke
When the window ends, privilege is removed automatically. Nothing lingers.
One day of privilege, two models
The same four roles, the same Tuesday. The only difference is how long the power exists.
Standing privilege is attackable 24 hours a day whether or not anyone is using it. Just-in-time shrinks the same authority to the minutes it is exercised, with every window requested, approved, and on record.
Standing privilege, gone
Just-in-time access
Elevated roles granted for a fixed window and removed automatically when it ends.
Approval workflows
The right sign-off for the risk, with MFA, from auto-approve to multi-person for the crown jewels.
Full audit trail
Every elevation logged with who, what, when, and why, ready for any review.
Where PIM sits in VIGILE
Guard the privilege, Implement the control
Managed PIM is the Guard and Implement motions for privileged access. We remove standing rights and run just-in-time elevation, shrinking the blast radius of any stolen credential. It is part of Unified Access Management.

PIM is about when and how privilege is granted: just-in-time elevation, approval, and automatic expiry, so nobody holds standing admin rights. PAM is about controlling and watching the use of privileged accounts: vaulting credentials, brokering sessions, and recording what happens. They are complementary, and most organizations need both.
Barely, and the trade is worth it. Low-risk elevations can be policy-approved in seconds, and only the most sensitive roles need a human sign-off. Admins get the access they need for the task, and the organization loses the standing privilege that attackers depend on.
Yes. We implement PIM across cloud platforms, directories, and on-premise systems, so just-in-time access applies wherever privileged roles exist. The aim is no standing privilege anywhere it can be avoided, across every environment at once.
It shrinks the blast radius. If a credential is stolen, it is far less useful when it carries no standing privilege and any elevation needs approval and expires. Combined with strong audit, it turns privileged access from a permanent liability into a controlled, observable event.
An admin requests elevation with a reason, policy approves it instantly or routes it to an approver, the access lives for a bounded window, and it expires on its own. No tickets to close, no standing admin left behind.
Low-risk, routine elevations are policy-approved in seconds. Sensitive scopes, production systems, and unusual requests route to a named approver. The boundary is set with you and tuned over time.
Yes. Cloud role elevation is where standing privilege accumulates fastest, and just-in-time assignment of cloud roles is usually the highest-value early win.
Every elevation with requester, reason, approver, window, and expiry on record. Auditors see that standing admin is gone and that every privileged window is accounted for.
By admin population and connected systems. A privileged access assessment scopes the rollout, then the service runs as a managed retainer.
Guard is where standing privilege is removed, Implement is the daily elevation workflow, and the evidence feeds the quarterly Enhance readout.
