+
+Infisical Privileged Access Management (PAM) provides a centralized way to manage and secure access to your critical infrastructure. It allows you to enforce fine-grained, policy-based controls over resources like databases, servers, and more, ensuring that only authorized users can access sensitive systems, and only when they need to.
+
+### How it Works
+
+Infisical PAM employs a resource-based model to organize and manage access. This model is designed to be intuitive and scalable.
+
+#### 1. Create a Resource
+
+The first step is to define a resource you want to manage. A resource represents a target system, such as a PostgreSQL database. When creating a resource, you'll provide the necessary connection details, like the host and port.
+

+
+#### 2. Add Accounts to the Resource
+
+Once a resource is created, you can add accounts to it. An account represents a specific set of credentials (e.g., a username and password) that can be used to access the resource. This allows you to manage multiple sets of credentials for a single database or server from one place.

+
+### Infisical PAM Features
+
+#### Session Logging and Auditing
+
+-   **Session Logging**: All user sessions are extensively logged, providing a detailed and searchable record of activities performed during a session.
+-   **Audit Logging**: Every significant event, such as a user starting a session or accessing an account's credentials, is recorded in audit logs. This gives you complete visibility over your project.

+
+#### Automated Credential Rotation
+
+Infisical PAM can automatically rotate account credentials to enhance your security posture.
+
+Here’s how it works:
+1.  **Add a Rotation Account**: On the resource level, you configure a "rotation account." This is a master or privileged account that has the necessary permissions to change the passwords of other accounts on that same resource.

+
+2.  **Configure Rotation on Accounts**: For each individual account you want to rotate, you can simply enable rotation and set a desired interval (e.g., every 30 days).
+![Rotate Credentials Account](/images/pam/overview/rotate-credentials-account.png)
+
+Infisical will then use the rotation account on the resource to automatically update the credentials of the target account at the specified interval, eliminating credential staleness.
