Cloud Privileged Access Manager (PAM) Module

This module makes it easy to set up Privileged Access Manager. Privileged Access Manager (PAM) is a Google Cloud native, managed solution to secure, manage and audit privileged access while ensuring operational velocity and developer productivity. PAM enables just-in-time, time-bound, approval-based access elevations, and auditing of privileged access elevations and activity. PAM lets you define the rules of who can access, what they can access, and if they should be granted access with or without approvals based on the sensitivity of the access and emergency of the situation.

Functional examples are included in the examples directory

Usage

  entitlement_requesters = [
    "serviceAccount:${var.entitlement_requester}",
  ]
  entitlement_approvers = [
    "domain:google.com",
  ]
  role_bindings = [
    {
      role                 = "roles/storage.admin"
