How does PAM support compliance with the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA)?

PAM (Privileged Access Management) supports compliance with the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) for secure federal operations by providing mechanisms to manage, monitor, and control privileged access within federal IT systems. PAM solutions help effectively manage and secure privileged accounts, implement least privilege principles, monitor and audit access to critical systems, enforce strong authentication and authorization protocols, and ensure accountability through detailed logging and reporting capabilities. This helps federal agencies meet the stringent security requirements outlined in FISMA to protect sensitive information and mitigate cybersecurity risks.
