Use cases · DevOps privileged access

PAM that speaks kubectl.
And psql. And SSH.

Platform and DevOps teams carry the most dangerous credentials in the company — cluster-admin kubeconfigs in dotfiles, shared database passwords in team vault docs, root SSH keys in CI variables — and classic PAM tools do not speak their protocols. Monopam brokers it all, through the tools engineers already use.

  • Native kubectl, psql, SSH
  • Zero standing privilege
  • Session recording built in
What you get

Broker the access. Keep the workflow.

Engineers do not adopt PAM that breaks their tools. Monopam sits in the path — kubectl, psql, DBeaver, SSH — and adds policy, recording, and expiry without changing a single habit.

Kubernetes and OpenShift, brokered

Cluster access becomes brokered and temporary — engineers keep kubectl and oc, the cluster stops keeping standing admins.

  • Short-lived kubeconfigs instead of standing cluster-admin
  • Policy by verb, namespace, and resource
  • JIT tokens — zero standing privilege
  • kubectl exec recording and native oc login

Databases with their own tools

Engineers connect with the clients they already use; Monopam sits in between with credentials, policy, and audit.

  • psql, DBeaver, and SSMS through the proxy
  • Vault-injected credentials the user never sees
  • SQL-level policy and audit
  • Dynamic data masking for PII

Servers and network gear, agentless

The gateway brings recorded, policy-controlled sessions to anything with an address — no agents on the targets.

  • Browser-based RDP, SSH, VNC, and Telnet via the gateway
  • Command filtering on privileged sessions
  • Clipboard and file-transfer policy
  • Full session recording and playback

Secrets with a lifecycle

Everything privileged lives in the vault and expires on its own — and approvals move fast enough that nobody routes around them.

  • Vaulted credentials and SSH keys
  • Automatic rotation on schedule or check-in
  • Time-bound checkout with auto-revoke
  • Approval flows that reach Slack-speed
How it works

Vault it. Broker it. Let it expire.

01

Vault

Move the kubeconfigs, database passwords, and SSH keys out of dotfiles and CI variables and into the vault — with owners and rotation.

02

Broker

Route kubectl, psql, and SSH through Monopam: policy on every verb, query, and command, recording on every session.

03

Expire

Access is time-bound by default — checkouts auto-revoke, JIT tokens expire, and standing privilege trends toward zero.
