What is Privileged Session Monitoring?


Privileged Session Monitoring, including session recording and session monitoring capabilities, offers an additional layer of oversight and holds users accountable for their actions when accessing privileged accounts. The session recording and monitoring functionalities enable organizations to monitor privileged sessions and capture privileged user activity in real-time. This helps to prevent intentional or unintentional misuse of privileged accounts and establishes non-repudiation.
Non-repudiation ensures that recorded evidence of user actions cannot be denied, providing strong evidence of user activities and preventing users from falsely repudiating their actions.

Commonly implemented within Privileged Access Management (PAM) systems, session monitoring, and recording are particularly beneficial for organizations seeking to effectively monitor privileged sessions and maintain a comprehensive record of user activities. Secure remote access connections to valuable or privileged systems can also be closely monitored using these capabilities.
