Cloud infrastructure entitlement management (CIEM) is a security and governance practice that helps organizations manage user permissions and access rights across complex cloud environments. CIEM solutions offer visibility and control over who has access to what resources, reducing the risk of excessive privileges and accidental or malicious misuse.
CIEM typically includes capabilities such as entitlement discovery, permission analysis, and policy enforcement across multiple cloud platforms. It helps ensure least privilege by identifying and revoking unused or risky permissions, and by enforcing policies that align with organizational security standards.
While Devolutions PAM does not serve as a dedicated CIEM platform, it complements CIEM practices by managing privileged access to sensitive systems and assets. For example, when integrated with cloud services or used in hybrid environments, Devolutions PAM can centralize and control access to critical infrastructure, supporting broader cloud entitlement governance.
