Privileged Identity Management

Just‑in‑time, least‑privilege administrative access with Privileged Identity Management. Our service is designed to help replace standing admin rights so powerful access can be granted when required, with appropriate approvals, and for limited durations.

Help reduce risk with access that’s controlled by design

Privileged Identity Management (PIM) is an important component of many Identity & Zero Trust strategies. By reducing reliance on always‑on admin privileges and enabling just‑in‑time access, PIM helps reduce the risk of unauthorized or excessive use of powerful accounts and can support efforts to meet security standards and regulatory obligations. For teams running on Microsoft® Azure®, it offers a direct, practical way to help strengthen your environment while supporting day‑to‑day operations.

Who it’s for

PIM is ideal for organizations that:

Operate in Microsoft Azure and want to strengthen their cloud security posture
Need to reduce risk from standing administrative rights
Are working toward meeting security standards and regulatory requirements
Serve regulated sectors such as government, healthcare, financial services, education, and more

The problems PIM solves

Standing admin rights can expose your environment to unnecessary risk
Excessive or unmonitored privileges make audits and compliance difficult
Traditional access models may not align with Zero Trust principles
Manual approval processes slow down delivery and create inconsistency

What’s included

Hexonova’s PIM service is designed to help implement controlled, auditable access for your sensitive administrative accounts.

Availability and behavior of capabilities depend on your Azure licensing, tenant configuration, and policy choices.

How it supports Identity & Zero Trust

Zero Trust assumes no user or device is trusted by default. PIM applies that principle to privileged accounts by enforcing explicit elevation with approvals, strict time limits on privileged sessions, and auditable activity. These controls help align privileged access with Zero Trust and can support your organization’s efforts to meet security standards and regulatory requirements—while supporting administrator workflows.

Move to just‑in‑time, least‑privilege access
