Detailed Explanation:Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions enhance security by enforcing strong authentication, rotation of credentials, and access control for shared accounts. This is especially critical in scenarios like SSO failures.

A bug bounty is a program that rewards security researchers for finding and reporting vulnerabilities in an application or system. Bug bounties are often used by companies to improve their security posture and incentivize ethical hacking. A bug bounty program typically defines the scope, rules, and compensation for the researchers.

Full Disk Encryption (FDE) ensures that all data on the drive is encrypted, preventing unauthorized access even if the device is lost.

Virtualization (D)allows multiple systems and services to be hosted onfewer physical machines, therebyreducing the total number of physical devicesand consequently thehardware attack surface. This also allows for better patching, monitoring, and control.
The fewer devices you manage physically, the fewer entry points there are for attackers to exploit hardware- level vulnerabilities.
