Explanation
Platform settings are applied to individual accounts. A platform is a set of parameters that defines how the Vault manages the passwords of accounts that belong to a certain operating system or application. Each account in the Vault is attached to a platform that determines how the account password is changed, verified, reconciled, and accessed. Platform settings can be customized to meet the specific requirements of each account type. For example, you can define the password complexity, rotation frequency, verification method, and access policy for each platform. References: [Defender PAM Sample Items Study Guide], page 15;
