New PIM justification policy and guidance:
PrivilegedIdentityManagementJustificationPolicy.md, outlining requirements for engineers to provide clear, traceable, and non-sensitive reasons when activating PIM roles, including the need for references to authorised work and special requirements for live production systems.PrivilegedIdentityManagementJustificationGuidance.md, providing practical advice and examples for composing appropriate PIM activation reasons, including a self-check and illustrative scenarios.Documentation and index updates:
