Why PAM Implementations Struggle
Privileged Access Management (PAM) is widely recognized as a foundational security control for Zero Trust, ransomware prevention, and compliance with frameworks such as NIST, ISO 27001, and SOC 2. Yet despite heavy investment, many organizations struggle to realize the promised value of PAM. Projects stall, adoption remains low, and security teams are left managing complex systems that deliver limited risk reduction. ……
