When a user requires access to privileged session, database server, or to any application server but do not have rules defined, then they can request for an emergency access. The Emergency Access feature helps the users to get access to any privileged session or application for a specific duration by creating an emergency access request. An administrator of Privileged Account Manager can create rules for a user for permanent access but for emergency access the administrator need not create any rule.
A user requests for access and administrator approves or denies the request. Administrator monitors all the requests and can revoke the approved request if there is any malicious activity detected. Privileged Account Manager audits all the activities done by the user.
