Privileged Session Management

Privileged Session Manager (PSM) is an application cluster that allows you to access, record, and monitor privileged sessions. With PSM, users can be issued privileged access to computers while meeting audit requirements. It enables granting access to users for a specific amount of time, capability to monitor live and terminate session at any point and replaying sessions. It also includes time constrained access to credentials and automatic termination of sessions after time limit expiry.

To comply with European Union GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) that was implemented on May 25, 2018, you must do one of two things when using PSM:

  • Turn off live monitoring and session recording. (See Create Privileged Access Policies.)
  • Clearly alert the user that their session will be recorded, how it will be recorded, and that they can opt out of such monitoring by not continuing to the session.
