Privileged Access Management (PAM) tools have been around for decades, designed in an era where network environments were vastly different from what we see today. These tools, originally created to protect trusted networks and endpoints, are struggling to adapt to the modern, cloud-centric landscape. Even though vendors claim to offer

Many discussions about the security implications of Large Language Models (LLMs) tend to focus on the potential negatives—such as enhanced phishing and spam attacks. Let's shed light on the positive aspects LLMs bring to the table, especially in enhancing security practices. Understanding Language and Context LLMs offer a deep,

The architecture solves a few key problems with the existing technologies to address the privileged network access problem. Existing Solutions and Their Problems Let's start by discussing existing solutions and their associated problems. The most basic architecture to this problem is using a jump host. A jump host is a

Traditional Privilege Access Management (PAM) solutions are rooted in an outdated technological landscape. They were designed for a handful of on-premise servers and databases, not today's cloud-first, data-intensive environment. Key Components and Design Flaws 1. Safety and Security: Traditional PAMs still use passwords, which are considered insecure. 2. Endpoint Trust:

Your internal platform team has a big problem it has no designer or PM. But you think nothing is wrong because "you aren't building a product, you're building a developer platform". I spent ten years building internal developer platforms. A year into founding a dev tool company, I learned the
