Password Management
Password Management is the IAM discipline focused on storing, governing, resetting, and securing passwords consistently.
Definition
Password Management is the set of practices and capabilities used to centralize password-related controls across the organization. It includes password policy enforcement, secure storage, reset workflows, usability support, and the reduction of operational friction tied to password usage. In IAM, it exists both to improve security hygiene and to reduce user and support burden.
The Ariovis perspective
Secrets must be treated as governed assets with ownership, controlled storage, rotation and revocation. Moving a static secret into a vault is useful, but it does not solve excessive privilege or a missing lifecycle.
