Product Overview

PingOne Privilege redefines privileged access management (PAM) by moving beyond vault-centric password control to just-in-time (JIT), passwordless privileged access. It eliminates static credentials for the majority of human privileged access use cases by issuing ephemeral, policy-driven access that automatically revokesd at session end, enforcing Zero Standing Privilege as an operating model.

Designed for administrators, developers, DevOps, security teams, contractors, and workloads, it unifies privileged access across multi-cloud, hybrid, and on-prem environments while cryptographically binding sessions to verified identities and trusted hardware using TPM-backed assurance. Instead of assuming trust at login, PingOne Privilege continuously verifies identity, device, and context during the session, reducing attack surface without compromising productivity.

Reduced Attack Surface Across Hybrid Environments

item-1-description

Eliminating static credentials and enforcing Zero Standing Privilege dramatically shrinks the number of exploitable paths across cloud, on-prem, and distributed infrastructure.

Lower Breach Impact & Blast Radius

item-2-description

Runtime, task-scoped access combined with automatic revocation ensures that even if an identity is compromised, privilege cannot persist or spread laterally.

Phishing-Resistant, Hardware-Bound Privileged Access

item-3-description

TPM-backed device assurance binds privileged sessions to trusted hardware, preventing credential replay and unauthorized access from unmanaged endpoints.

Improved Operational Efficiency Without Sacrificing Security

item-5-description

Self-service, policy-driven privileged access reduces manual ticketing and administrative overhead while maintaining continuous enforcement and auditability.

Key Features

Runtime Privileged Access Enforcement

• Issues ephemeral, task-scoped privileged access at runtime, not at login
• Automatically revokes access at session end with no residual elevation.
• Enforces session-level controls, monitoring, and real-time policy validation.

Icon

Heading

BENEFIT

Description

Shifts security from “Admin Time” to runtime control, ensuring privilege is continuously enforced rather than assumed.

95/5 Credential Elimination Model

• Eliminates static credentials for approximately 95% of human privileged access use cases.
• Removes password checkout and long-lived SSH keys from the human access path.
• Integrates with existing vaults for narrow bootstrap or break-glass scenarios.

Icon

Heading

BENEFIT

Description

Dramatically reduces credential sprawl and eliminates reusable secrets attackers target.

Zero Standing Privilege as an Operating Model

• Removes persistent administrator accounts and always-on elevated roles.
• Grants time-bound, granular access aligned to specific tasks or intent.
• Enforces automatic privilege expiration without manual cleanup cycles.

Icon

Heading

BENEFIT

Description

Minimizes blast radius and lateral movement by ensuring privilege exists only when required.

TPM-Backed, Hardware-Bound Assurance

• Cryptographically binds privileged sessions to a verified identity and a specific physical device.
• Protects private keys within tamper-resistant TPM hardware (ISO/IEC 11889 standard, widely FIPS-validated).
• Prevents credential replay, session hijacking, and unauthorized device access even if OS or file systems are compromised.

Icon

Heading

BENEFIT

Description

Stops attackers from reusing stolen credentials by requiring both verified identity and trusted hardware for access.

Unified Identity-Native Privilege Control

• Integrates with identity verification, governance, orchestration, and risk engines across the Ping Identity platform.
• Ingests contextual signals (device posture, anomaly detection, behavioral risk) into runtime authorization decisions.
• Enables adaptive policies and step-up authentication for sensitive actions.

Icon

BENEFIT

Description

Extends privileged access beyond a siloed vault into a unified, risk-aware identity control plane.
