Isolating Sensitive Assets from Advanced Persistent Threats

The Challenge
Advanced persistent threats are on the rise and are characterized by being better planned, more sophisticated and directly targeted at your most valuable assets. They often go after your most privileged accounts due to their power to gain system wide access and as such damage the core of you business.

The Solution
By managing and controlling privileged accounts and sessions with policies and workflows you are better protecting your target systems. However by isolating privileged session with Privileged Session Management's unique proxy architecture you are significantly reducing the risk of targeted malware that is destined to spread to your databases, servers or virtual environments.

How does this work?
When connecting to a sensitive target system using Privileged Session Management Suite, the session is run over a secure proxy and not directly on the administrator's desktop. As such, if an administrator, DBA or hypervisor manager is targeted with an email for example containing malware aimed to hijack the privileged account and steal sensitive information, with Privileged Session Management Suite the attack is blocked since there is no longer a direct connection to the target system.

Benefits

  • Prevent cyber attacks by isolating desktops from sensitive target machines and reduce the risk of advanced and targeted threats
  • Create accountability and control over privileged session access with policies, workflows and privileged single sign on
  • Deliver continuous monitoring and compliance with session recording with zero footprint on target machines
