Integrate Endpoint Privilege Management for Mac and BeyondInsight

Overview

Endpoint Privilege Management combines privilege management and application control technology in a single lightweight agent. This scalable solution allows global organizations to reduce the attack surface of their endpoint estate by eliminating local admin rights, enforcing application controls and protecting against the techniques used by modern malware.

With the integration between U-Series Appliance, BeyondInsight, and Endpoint Privilege Management, you have a proven privilege management solution that transmits data about your endpoints and policies to a centralized management console with the reporting and analytic capabilities needed to reduce risk, maximize security, and empower users to work effectively.
