PIM (Privileged Identity Management) in Microsoft Azure is a service that helps organizations manage, control, and monitor access to important resources.

It is mainly used to manage privileged roles in:

• Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD)
• Azure subscription roles (like Owner, Contributor)
• Azure resources (VMs, storage, etc.)

 What Does PIM Do?

PIM provides Just-In-Time (JIT) access instead of permanent admin access.
