Azure AD Privileged Identity Management

The main pre-requisites required to set up PIM in Azure AD are:


 Azure AD Premium P2
 Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS) E5
Setting up Azure AD PIM involves the following steps:
1. Enable PIM: Login to Azure AD as as Global administrator or Privileged role
administrator. Activate PIM for your Azure AD tenant. To enable PIM, go to the Azure
AD portal, navigate to “Privileged Identity Management” from the left-hand menu, and
follow the prompts to enable PIM.
2. Define roles: Next, define the roles that you want to manage through PIM. This involves
creating custom roles, defining permissions, and assigning users to the roles.
3. Configure access: Configure access for the roles you created in the previous step. This
includes establishing activation and deactivation policies, specifying approval workflows,
and defining just-in-time (JIT) access policies.
4. Test: Test your PIM configuration to confirm your workflows are implemented well. You
can do this by activating a role, completing the necessary approvals, and verifying that
the user has the required access.
5. Monitor and manage: Finally, monitor and manage your PIM configuration on an
ongoing basis to ensure that it remains effective and up to date. This includes reviewing
role assignments, monitoring access requests and approvals, and performing regular
audits of privileged access.
How PIM fortifies your Azure environment
With Azure AD PIM, administrators can send alerts when there is suspicious or unsafe activity in
their organization. These alerts are shown on the PIM dashboard, and when selected, they create
a report that lists the users or roles that caused the alert. This helps administrators to identify and
respond to any potential security threats or issues concerning their organization’s privileged
access. The alerts are divided into three categories:
 High: Requires urgent action due to a policy infringement.
 Medium: Doesn’t require urgent action but flags a potential policy violation.
 Low: Doesn’t require immediate action but puts forth a policy change.
To customize security alerts, follow these steps:
 Open Azure AD Privileged Identity Management.
 From the left menu, click Azure AD Roles.
 From the LHS menu, select Alerts, and then select Setting.
 Now you can create custom alerts to work with your environment and security needs.
With Azure AD’s PIM, administrators can also audit event logs of employees. To perform audit,
 Open Azure AD PIM.
 Select Azure AD roles.
 Open Resource Audit. The audit record will open.
 Filter the required data using custom values (such as predefined date or custom range).
