This also holds for PAM vendors shoehorning a decade-old PAM product into virtual machines in the cloud. In a DevOps context, programmatic access to vault services will be more demanding. Especially in Linux estates, they create multiple local privileged accounts for convenience. Audits for compliance will be more streamlined.
