PAW | The Privileged Path Framework

Understanding Privileged Access Workstations — the concept, the purpose, and the implementation options available today.

Using Windows 365 Cloud PCs as dedicated privileged access environments — a modern, cloud-native approach to PAW deployment.

Using Azure Virtual Desktop as a session-based privileged access environment — scalable, flexible, and cost-effective.

The most frequent mistakes organisations make when deploying Privileged Access Workstations — and how to avoid them.
