The Cybersecurity software developer Wallix has released PAM4ALLa solution that takes care of protect access to a company network, both by human and machine users, and to do so in accordance with the principle of least privilege. This solution brings together all Wallix technologies, and goes one step beyond the security of privileged accounts.
Today, security threats continue to grow, so it is essential that companies protect their networks by controlling access to them. And not only the most sensitive accounts that are part of them, that is, the privileged accounts. It is necessary to protect them all. For this, Wallix PAM4ALL protected by the principle of least privilegein order to prevent the network from being affected by malware or ransomware attacks.
While working, users of a system need privileges to be able to access specific online resources of the organization. But they need to have access to them at the right time to perform their tasks and with the right level of privileges for each user, and no matter where they are: inside the company facilities or outside them, accessing remotely. This is where systems based on the principles of least privilege come in, and therefore, Wallix PAM4ALL.
This system allows the control and visibility of the access of all users and of any rank in the organization. Not only from humans: also from devices. It takes care of your control for all sessions, in all the strategic assets of the company and in all its endpoints. To do this, it combines all the company’s technologies in a multi-factor authentication (MFA) solution. With it, you are able to neutralize all the risks that are associated with credential theft.
With this authentication solution, remote access control is also improved, both for employees and suppliers. And that of people outside the organization who need to access your network at a given time. In addition, it is responsible for managing sessions, controlling, tracking and auditing them. On the other hand, it is also responsible for managing passwords, as well as their protection and rotation, and the elimination of hard-coded passwords.
