IAM Tools FAQ
Common questions about IAM tools, selection guides, pricing, and comparisons.
IAM (Identity and Access Management) is the broad category covering all identity-related security. PAM (Privileged Access Management) specifically secures high-risk accounts like admin, root, and service accounts with session recording, just-in-time access, and credential vaulting. IGA (Identity Governance and Administration) focuses on access lifecycle management, certification reviews, and ensuring users only have the access they need.
If you have admin accounts, shared credentials, service accounts, or any users with elevated privileges, you need PAM. Standard IAM handles authentication and basic authorization, but PAM adds critical controls for privileged access: credential vaulting, session recording, just-in-time elevation, and break-glass procedures. Compromised privileged accounts are involved in the majority of serious breaches.
ITDR is an emerging category that detects attacks targeting identity infrastructure: credential theft, Kerberoasting, pass-the-hash, MFA bypass, and Active Directory attacks. While IAM and PAM focus on prevention (controlling who can access what), ITDR focuses on detection and response when identity-based attacks are in progress. It fills the gap between identity management and security operations.
Passwordless authentication (FIDO2, passkeys, biometrics) eliminates the password entirely, removing the most commonly attacked credential. Traditional MFA adds a second factor but still relies on passwords. Passwordless is more secure and provides better user experience, but requires compatible infrastructure. Start with FIDO2/passkey support for high-risk users and gradually expand across the organization.
