PowerBroker for Windows 7.1: RADIUS Support, Touch Screen, more

blog-pbw-7-1-radius-support I am pleased to announce the availability of PowerBroker for Windows version 7.1. This release is packed with enhancements meant to further simplify least privilege management and improve security. Get the New Features document for complete details.

RADIUS Support for User Messages

As companies look for additional mechanisms to improve security in their organizations, many utilize multi-factor authentication. With version 7.1 PowerBroker for Windows User Messages now support one-time-passwords (OTPs) for additional verification that the executing user is the intended recipient of the policy. This feature will support any multi-factor vendor that also supports the RADIUS protocol. For a representation of this new capability, please see the screenshot below. blog-pbw-7-1

BeyondInsight Asset Based Authentication

PowerBroker for Windows, in combination with PowerBroker Password Safe, can execute an application using Password Safe managed credentials. This native product integration enables an application to be launched as an alternate user without exposing the password for the account. With version 7.1 there is now an option to streamline this process by utilizing PowerBroker for Windows as the primary authoritative authentication source as to whether the rule should be allowed. This enhancement further simplifies privileged access management. Note: This enhancement requires BeyondInsight v6.0 or higher.

Touch Screen Keyboard Support

More and more, users are going mobile and utilizing their phones or tablets to conduct important business. In version 7.1, there is an enhancement on these devices/tablets to automatically display the virtual keyboard when a physical one cannot be detected. This enhancement enables greater flexibility to meet growing mobile usage demand.

Updated Connectors to SIEM Tools

With the release of Beyondnsight 6.0, PowerBroker for Windows data connectors to SIEM tools like LogRhythm and Splunk have been enhanced to better associate users and related events, (for example, where UserX attempted to run AppY on ComputerZ and this action was denied). You can find these connectors under the configuration option. If you would like to learn more about these new capabilities, review the latest Release Notes available in the customer portal, check out the New Features document, watch the 3 minute demo, or contact us today.
