BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management elevates privileges to known, trusted applications that require them, controls application usage, and logs and reports on privileged activities using security tools already in place.
With BeyondTrust, you can implement essential zero trust endpoint security controls. Provide users enough endpoint privileges to complete their tasks, but nothing more. Define policies and privilege distributions to fine-tune and determine the level of access available across the organization—preventing malware attacks due to overprivilege.
- “BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management really is a perfect solution. Not only does it implement least privilege, protect, and monitor our privileged accounts, it also allows us to maintain compliance with several regulations, which is hugely beneficial to us.”
Elevate privileges to applications for standard users on Windows or Mac through fine-grained policy-based controls, providing just enough access to complete a task.
Built-in connectors designed to integrate into trusted help desk applications, vulnerability management scanners, and SIEM tools.
Correlate user behavior against security intelligence and access a complete audit trail of all user activity that speeds forensics and simplifies compliance.
Misplaced administrative rights and privileges are frequently involved in cyberattacks, providing attackers the foothold they need to sneak laterally through the enterprise and into critical systems.
Endpoint Privilege Management (EPM) is a solution used to elevate a user's privileges to applications as defined by IT and security teams—and nothing more. Instead of giving administrative rights to employee, third-party, and vendor users whenever privilege is requested, privileges are distributed on an "as-needed" basis. This substantially shrinks the attack surface by implementing the principle of least privilege (POLP) without denying users the ability to complete their job-related tasks.
"We did an extensive review of the different offerings in the endpoint privilege management space and BeyondTrust was the clear winner. We didn't have to do any training with the software itself, and we were able to roll it out quickly with minimal impact on our users."
