- Design, implement, and manage PAM solutions using CyberArk, BeyondTrust, Delinea, and HashiCorp Vault
- Configure privileged account onboarding and lifecycle management
- Configure password vaulting, rotation, and credential management
- Configure Privileged Session Management (PSM)
- Implement Just-In-Time (JIT) and Just-Enough-Access (JEA) models
- Develop and integrate AI/ML models to detect anomalous privileged access behavior
- Identify insider threats and suspicious activity
- Predict and prevent access misuse
- Use AI for behavioral analytics (UEBA User & Entity Behavior Analytics)
- Use AI for risk-based authentication and access decisions
- Implement intelligent automation for privileged account onboarding/offboarding
- Implement intelligent automation for access approvals and policy enforcement
- Leverage AI-enabled SIEM tools (e.g., Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel) for real-time monitoring of privileged sessions
- Leverage AI-enabled SIEM tools for automated alert prioritization
- Implement session recording and playback
- Implement AI-driven anomaly detection and alert tuning
- Support incident response and forensic investigations
- Integrate PAM with IAM systems (Entra ID, Okta, SailPoint)
- Integrate PAM with security tools (SIEM, SOAR, EDR/XDR)
- Integrate PAM with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP)
- Work with APIs, REST services, and JSON
- Work with data pipelines for feeding security analytics platforms
- Build AI-ready datasets from logs and access activity
- Enforce least privilege access
- Enforce Zero Trust principles
- Support compliance with SOX, GDPR, PCI-DSS, ISO 27001
- Generate AI-assisted compliance reports and audit insights
- Contribute to policy definition and governance frameworks
- Develop scripts and automation workflows using Python, PowerShell, and Bash
- Integrate PAM into CI/CD pipelines (DevSecOps)
- Implement AI-assisted remediation workflows using SOAR tools
- Partner with security operations (SOC) teams
