Account discovery is the process of identifying accounts from external identity providers so they can be secured, monitored, and managed by a privileged access management solution such as Devolutions PAM. These identities can represent individuals or services and may take the form of user credentials, certificates, or registered applications, such as Microsoft Azure AD applications.
Each discovered account represents a unique identity tied to specific access rights and authorization levels. For example, an Active Directory account for an HR employee or a certificate linked to a web server can be surfaced during the discovery process. This visibility is essential for enforcing access controls and maintaining security compliance.
Devolutions PAM supports account discovery by integrating with supported identity providers and storing discovered identities in a centralized privileged access vault. This helps organizations secure and track usage of privileged accounts without manual entry, facilitating automation, reducing risk, and improving operational efficiency.
