Privileged Roles that Are Eligible, Time-Boxed and Approved Into
Azure defaults for an activation policy require MFA and a justification and no approval, so an eligible Owner activates alone at 3am with the reason fix; and eligibility itself is permanent unless somebody sets an end date. Manages the role policy per scope with approval required for Owner-class roles, gives every eligible assignment an expiry, and time-boxes the active ones kept for break-glass.

Documentation
azure-pim
Privileged roles that are eligible, time-boxed, and approved into. Works
with Terraform and OpenTofu (>= 1.6), azurerm provider
>= 4.0, < 5.0.
An eligible assignment with no expiry is eligible forever. PIM's point is
that nobody holds Owner all day; the eligibility itself can be permanent,
and usually is. Every eligible assignment here has an end date (365 days by
default); permanent needs accept_permanent_eligibility.
Activation requires approval only if the role's policy says so. Azure's
defaults require MFA and a justification and no approval, so an eligible
Owner activates alone at 3am with the justification "fix". Each role's
management policy is managed here; Owner, User Access Administrator and RBAC
Administrator must require an approver unless
accept_unapproved_privileged_activation.
A permanent active assignment is what PIM exists to replace. Active assignments here are time-boxed, for the break-glass identity that must not depend on PIM working.
Verification
Static validation runs tofu fmt, init, validate, tflint and checkov.
This module has not yet had a live test, so it is published as statically
validated with its live test pending and does not carry the live-tested mark.

- Usage
Related modules
azure-b2c
An Azure AD B2C tenant created where its customer directory should live, on PremiumP1 or P2, linked to the subscription that pays per monthly active user. Data residency and the onmicrosoft.com name are chosen once and cannot change; user flows, policies and app registrations are configured inside the tenant with an azuread provider pointed at the exported tenant ID.
azure-ddos-protection-plan
The plan is a fixed monthly charge of roughly three thousand dollars from the moment it exists, attached VNets or not; it protects only the VNets that reference it; and DDoS IP Protection on the addresses themselves is an order of magnitude cheaper for a handful. The charge accepted by name before the plan is created, the plan ID exported for azure-vnet, an output that says it bills unattached.
azure-firewall
Every security feature on this service defaults to telling you, not to stopping it: threat_intelligence_mode defaults to Alert, which logs traffic to known-malicious destinations and forwards it, and intrusion detection does the same. Deny for both here, with the DNS proxy on so FQDN rules and the client agree on an answer.
azure-entra-domain-services
Microsoft Entra Domain Services with NTLM v1, TLS 1.0 and RC4 off and Kerberos armoring on, the WinRM network security group the service insists on, the AAD DC Administrators group with the members you name, and the Domain Controller Services principal registered, all of which fail late when missing. Notifications go to the admins; filtered sync and LDAPS are inputs.
azure-purview
A Microsoft Purview account for the data map with public network access off, the managed Event Hub that bills monthly whether used or not turned off, a system identity, and Storage Blob Data Reader granted to that identity on every storage account it will scan, since a scan fails otherwise. The account bills for data map capacity from creation; public access is accepted by name.
azure-waf-policy
Detection mode evaluates every rule, logs every match and forwards every request - the dashboard fills with blocked-looking entries while the backend receives them all. Prevention by default, Detection only by name. A policy attached to no listener protects nothing, so the attached listeners are an output; every exclusion is a hole and has to carry a reason.
