Privileged Access Manager

The architecture of Privileged Access Manager is designed for secure and scalable privileged access management. The core components include the Password Vault, Access Control Server, and Audit Server. The Password Vault securely stores encrypted passwords using AES-256 encryption.

The Access Control Server enforces access policies based on role-based access control (RBAC). The Audit Server logs all privileged access activities, providing detailed audit trails. Communication between components occurs over HTTPS.

The system uses a relational database for storing configuration and audit data. The CLI provides administrative functions, including user management and policy configuration. REST APIs enable integration with other systems.

Network requirements include ports for HTTPS communication. The system's design emphasizes security, scalability, and ease of integration. Key differences from competitors include its z/OS platform support and granular access controls, providing a robust solution for enterprise environments.
