Privileged Access Management System for Securing Administrative Accounts

The objective of this project is to develop a Privileged Access Management system that protects high-privilege accounts. The system reduces security risks by controlling, monitoring, and auditing access to critical administrative resources.

Study privileged accounts and associated security threats.

Analyze real-world breaches caused by compromised admin accounts.

Design a system to manage and control privileged credentials.

Implement secure authentication for privileged users.

Enforce time-bound and approval-based access mechanisms.

Monitor privileged sessions and activities.

Log all administrative actions for auditing purposes.

Implement alerts for suspicious privileged behavior.

Test system effectiveness using simulated misuse scenarios.

Evaluate security improvements over unmanaged admin access.

Document operational benefits and limitations.
