Endpoint Privilege Management for Linux

Implement Intelligent Linux Privilege Controls

Linux today makes up roughly 85% of the server market in public-facing sites and it’s the standard for all cloud environments hosting mission critical data and systems. Many organizations adopt risky day-to-day practices with their Linux endpoints that expose them to cyberthreats from external attackers and insiders.

Credential sharing, root abuse or misuse, inconsistent manual processes, overreliance on open-source tools to manage systems, excessive rights, and limited visibility into privileged account use are all common practices that increase an organization’s exposure to risk from both cyberthreats and non-compliance.

Endpoint Privilege Management enables you to intelligently manage and control privileges across your Linux estate, putting an end to credential sharing, root abuse/misuse, and excessive rights. With fine-grained visibility into all your user activity and centralized management, you can monitor privilege elevation and streamline oversight of your estate.

Protect Against External & Internal Threats

Attackers are better armed than ever to target the critical applications and sensitive data housed on your Linux endpoints. Malware, ransomware, and phishing attacks are just a few of the types of threats that can be leveraged to compromise your high-value Linux servers and desktops.

External attackers aren’t the only ones you need to worry about. Malicious insiders with excessive privileges and a lack of oversight can wreak havoc. Even well-intentioned users who make a mistake can pose a significant threat, inadvertently exposing cloud buckets or wiping out critical data or systems with an errant command.

Endpoint Privilege Management protects against both external and internal threats by controlling root access, enforcing least privilege, limiting the risk of unwanted lateral movement, and preventing unauthorized execution of malicious code. It puts intelligent privilege guardrails around your users to keep them productive — not destructive.

Satisfy Auditors & Regulators

Passing audits, and maintaining compliance with regulations, is essential. Without the right solution in place, responding to audits can be a drain on productivity.  

Endpoint Privilege Management equips you to easily respond to audits and ensure compliance with many different regulatory requirements. Granular access controls, centralized capture and management of privileged event logging, and the ability to fully record all sessions do the heavy lifting for you, turning what used to be an intensive, manual effort into a streamlined process.

Rely on Endpoint Privilege Management to help ensure provable adherence to regulatory requirements from NIST CSF to ISO 27000 to industry-specific regulations and beyond.

Achieve Streamlined Linux Workflows

Comprehensive out-of-the-box integrations and a flexible API enable Endpoint Privilege Management to dramatically improve your overall security posture and streamline your operational workflows.

Endpoint Privilege Management also supports a REST API architecture to enable task automation and smooth integration with a variety of systems and tools, including:

• SIEM Solutions: Leverage built-in syslog capabilities to send different types of logs to Splunk, Elastic, or any other SIEM solution.
• ServiceNow: Manage and track privileged access requests through a unified platform, streamline the approval process, and enhance visibility of workflows.
• Credential Management: Combine privilege management with your privileged password vault, including BeyondTrust Password Safe, to harden security and streamline workflows.
