Answer 1

Hello

Implementing Privileged Access Workstations (PAW) for Tier 0 environments is crucial for securing highly sensitive administrative tasks. Here are some recommendations based on the information available:

Utilize hardened workstations for privileged users to perform sensitive administrative tasks.

Consider using dedicated administrative workstations for application administrative accounts to protect them from internet risks.

Evaluate the use of a privileged management solution to provide privileges to administrators on demand, reducing the risk by minimizing the lifetime of privileges.

Implement Azure Security measures such as Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and Conditional Access for all users, and establish a secure hybrid identity solution.

For Tier 0 assets, increase the adoption of SaaS and PaaS Asset Management for cloud environments and protect privileged identities.

Ensure the confidentiality of admin credentials and the safekeeping of PAW devices.

Remember to continuously review and update security measures to adapt to evolving threats and maintain a robust security posture.

Can I ask, as Tier 0 is no longer MS recommended architecture, where does PAW fit in the new Enterprise access model please?
