Manage Third-Party Remote Access

External vendors, outsourcers, and contractors play a vital and growing role in modern architectures. Recent years have pointed to third-party access as the point of origin in many of the most significant breaches in modern history. Third-party access protocols are frequently targeted by attackers as a result of these past successes. Choosing the correct vendor privileged access management (VPAM) is paramount to combatting these threats.

Privileged Remote Access enables the third-party experts that keep your network running smoothly, all while shrinking your attack surface.

Third-party vendors may require privileged access to your network for many business-critical IT or operational tasks. The task of tracking and monitoring vendor remote access and third-party remote access can be daunting, and can create headaches for both your internal teams and your vendors themselves. Legacy tools like a VPNs may grant your vendors more access than they really need, exposing critical vulnerabilities and substantially increasing your organization's attack surface.

Privileged Remote Access works differently, extending privileged access security best practices to all remote access sessions – internal and external.

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. Concerns over data breaches as the result of a third-party’s lax security is increasing. If a service provider or vendor introduces a security vulnerability to even one client, it can spell disaster for their business.

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 tools can't meet all of their client needs. Client requirements may require advanced tiers of service, while others have simpler or less frequent needs that impact the way vendors need to interact with their various customers and systems. Your third-party access management should be able to cater to them all, delivering uncompromising security across all connections.
