So, why is privileged access management so important? The answer is simple: you need to safeguard your organization’s intellectual property or confidential information that your business partners and consumers trust you to protect. Managing and monitoring privileged access to applications and systems that house such information, as well as conducting annual access review sessions, is extremely critical in protecting your reputation and continuing to earn the trust of your consumers and partners.
We work with you to define privileged access management policies and solutions to manage the lifecycle of privileged accounts and monitor privileged user activities.
PAM solutions are tools that mitigate privileged access risks and ensure your employees have access levels necessary for them to complete their work.
Organizations need to consider the following key aspects in order to run an effective PAM program:
Our PAM assessment and strategy service looks at the people, process and technology aspects of managing privileged accounts, and determines the maturity level of your PAM program. We then recommend enhancements and privileged access management solutions to automate your privileged account lifecycle management process to improve the maturity of your PAM program and reduce the risk associated with privileged user access.
Whereas organizations have traditionally maintained countless privileged accounts to complete critical IT ecosystem-related functions, we arm businesses like yours with PAM solutions that give admins the precise levels of access they need to complete their tasks, without unnecessary risks.
Our Assessment and Strategy deliverables include:
Our implementation services are delivered in Plan, Design, Build, Test, and Rollout phases. Our delivery methodology is aligned with a blend of waterfall and agile approaches to incrementally roll out key PAM capabilities.
This approach allows for faster, more effective implementation of foundational capabilities, such as:
Subsequent phases of the implementation process typically include migrating privileged accounts in other infrastructure and key applications to the PAM solution, as well as implementing user management such as privileged user monitoring across all integrated platforms and applications.
Let your admins see who is accessing what – Privileged access management shows your administrators the exact systems and sets of data a user is interacting with. This level of transparency allows your admins to identify vulnerabilities and mitigate potential breaches. Grant all of your users a sole, centralized solution that relies on just one HTTPS access point so they can interact with the data and systems they need.
Manage system access in real time – PAM enables a greater level of session management that grants admins the ability to manage system access in real time. PAM-enabled session management seamlessly integrates into your SAO solutions, SIEM systems, and IDSs — this integration allows for more efficient threat identification and prevention, and it offers an immutable audit trail that simplifies compliance for your administrators.
Reduce your costs – Data breaches are serious events that jeopardize your organization’s reputation and financial posture. PAM best practices go a long way toward preventing data breaches and subsequently mitigating the likelihood of your organization incurring reputational and financial consequences.
Limit your attack surface – Privileged access management protects your organization from both internal and external threats by shrinking its attack surface. Your admins can leverage continuous monitoring and logging to quickly track down potential security threats and address internal and external threats.
We assess your existing cybersecurity posture and architecture, identify gaps and vulnerabilities and eliminate solutions that don’t work well together.
We validate your policies and controls based on regulatory compliance standards and guidelines as well as with adherence to identity and access management best practices. Additionally, we help align your solutions to your in-house capability.
We review, analyze, compare and vet current and emerging technologies, provide recommendations on products and controls that minimize your risk, and integrate and optimize solutions to fit your needs and environment.
