This article explains how to use CyberArk Privileged Access Manager (PAM) to securely manage AWS account root user access with multi-factor authentication (MFA).
- CyberArk PAM enables secure root account management with MFA enforcement and personal-level access control
- Provides visibility, audit trails, and compliance support for shared root account access
- Requires downloading and importing CyberArk plugins for AWS root management and TOTP MFA
- Involves configuring security policies, PSM connectors, and safe member access permissions
- Users request MFA tokens through CyberArk portal for AWS console sign-in
- No additional cost for CyberArk customers to implement this integration
The integration strengthens AWS root account security by combining CyberArk's privileged access management with AWS MFA capabilities, enabling organizations to enforce enterprise security policies and maintain detailed audit logs.
