Systems mostly on CentOS, mostly Java applications, mostly Postgresql databases.

Compliance requires separating infrastructure operations, application operations, computer operations to be separated.

This means that an infrastructure operator is su to be root on a server, an app operator su to be root on a database and have some su rights do keep the apps running, and a computer operator is a lesser mix of the two.

Root password and some high priority passwords managed by Password Manager Pro, released after a four-eye check, and changed by PMP after use.

But this is not enough. Looks like the gold old four eyes rule is required.

Is there a solution to restrict OS/DB to require the consent of two people to execute something with raised privileges? Like launching a nuke-tipped missile with two keys.
