Secure third-party remote access as a customer or a service provider. Enable consistent, secure, and productive remote access experiences across all connections.
External vendors, contractors, etc. play a vital role in today’s businesses, with 67% of organizations reportedly using over 100 third-party suppliers, and 35% having 1000 or more.
Yet third-party access is commonly the point of origin in significant breaches, with recent research showing that the percentages of breaches where a third party was involved in 2025 doubled from the previous year. Choosing the correct vendor privileged access management (VPAM) is paramount to enabling secure third-party access, while mitigating the risks.
Privileged Remote Access provides access for the third-party vendors who keep your IT systems, cloud applications, OT systems and more running smoothly, all while shrinking your attack surface.
Third-party vendors often require privileged access for business-critical IT or operational tasks. However, the task of tracking and monitoring vendor remote access and third-party remote access can be daunting. Legacy tools, such as VPNs, may grant “all or nothing” remote access to vendors, substantially increasing the third-party risk.
Privileged Remote Access works differently, extending privileged access security best practices to all remote access sessions—internal and external.
Elevated Control & Insight
Enable the exact remote vendor access needed, and monitor what third parties are doing on your network.
Reduce Cyber Risk
Control vendor access to reduce your attack surface and prevent misuse of “all or nothing” VPN access.
Increase Access Productivity
Granularly assign vendor profiles and permissions to give vendors the level of access they need to be productive, without relying on lengthy processes.
"The biggest thing that BeyondTrust enables for our team is the ability to connect any individual—whether it be a researcher or vendor—to any particular product at any time, through one system, and still enforce all of the security requirements that the university, state, and federal government have. "
—Michael E. Fox, Senior Associate Director, Texas A&M University
"Before working with BeyondTrust, we didn’t have a straightforward way to grant and restrict access to the appropriate people. Privileged Remote Access solves this issue by eliminating VPN, providing just-in-time access, and enforcing least privilege to only allow contractors to access the systems they are supposed to be accessing.The solution also simplifies the process for Keller’s trusted partners, who now access our resources through an identity-secure portal. Privileged Remote Access logs every action from login to logout, ensuring we have a complete audit trail of what happened when."
—Kamil Krezlewicz, Senior Security Administrator at Keller Group, and Evan Leake, Computer System Analyst at Keller Group
"By blocking RDP and SSH on our network and routing access through Privileged Remote Access, we've shut down unmanaged entry points."
—Jammin Jablanski, Director, Identity and Access Management, DXC Technology
Today’s outsourcers and managed service providers (MSPs) are expected to provide high-quality services, strong security, and real-time support across a complex landscape of infrastructure, devices, and applications.
BeyondTrust delivers vendor privileged access management (VPAM) built to equip vendors, outsourcers, and MSPs with all the access tools they need. This includes:
Vendors may use multiple remote access tools at once because legacy remote access tools like VPNs, RDP, and bastion hosts weren't built to support the full range of client needs. Some clients may require advanced tiers of service, while others have fewer requirements that impact the way vendors need to interact with their various customers and systems. To meet this wide range of needs, many vendors end up stitching together multiple tools. Your third-party access management should be able to cater to them all, delivering uncompromising security across all connections.
Increase Remote Access Productivity
Consolidate remote access methods for all of your clients within one platform so jobs get done quickly without relying on lengthy processes or multiple tools.
Strengthen Access Security
BeyondTrust uses outbound connections from both the privileged user and the endpoint. This allows you to set granular access controls, monitor activity, and log data for each client and session.
Improve Service Flexibility
Cater to your exact access needs without compromising security levels. Simplify access for users and customers alike.
“In our multi-client, multi-team environment, Privileged Remote Access has allowed us to partition roles, specifying who can access a specific customer account or equipment. It has been very widely implemented: 99% of our customers have adopted it.”
—Alain Astgen, Service Center Manager & CISO, Axians
“BeyondTrust enables us to rise to the occasion, meet regulatory standards of our customers and work towards true Zero Trust.”
—Mahmood Haq, CISO, MyVest
"BeyondTrust's solution has impacted our business by giving us peace of mind around the security of our customers' data and also giving us a very robust audit trail to ensure the integrity of that at all times, and allowing us to put in the appropriate safeguards to ensure we’re always in front of any potential security vulnerabilities."
—Shane Carden, CIO, Behavox
