You are probably reading this because you know you have a problem. Either your company allows users to maintain local administrator rights or you have to do countless remote installs. We can solve this for you with little effort and, at the same time, free up your IT resources. We have customers with tens of thousands of users, who have tried to implement whitelisting solutions, but failed and came to us, because this way you can only see the world in retrospect. Your users will hate you for blocking their workday. Even with unlimited resources, no one can predict what your users need today. Instead of speculating on this by creating whitelists ahead of time, Admin By Request works proactively the other way around. If your users start to install software, the Admin By Request client intercepts this and installs the software with a full audit trail - without the users being administrators. It's like the self-checkout at the supermarket. It is also safer than traditional whitelisting solutions - just because an administrator whitelists a file doesn't mean it is safe. We real-time scan files with more than 35 anti-virus engines before allowing those files to run with administrative privileges. Nothing needs to be installed or changed on-premise. Users do not need to be re-educated and no one in IT needs to spend endless hours on whitelists or remote installs. All you have to do is to deploy the Admin By Request endpoint software. This ease of use is why we are the fastest growing PAM solution in the world. Let us show you - request a demo today.
In this blog, PowerON’s Steve Beaumont continues his delve into Admin By Request's Privileged Access Management (PAM) solution, this time focusing on sub-settings, application elevation tools, and auditing capabilities.
There's no denying that hackers are good. We see this reflected in the frequent cyberattack stories that populate the news channels almost daily - most recently, the Lapsus$ attack on Okta. What we don't hear so much about? That Privileged Access Management software is better.
Adopting a less ‘pig-headed’ approach to removing Local Admin rights from staff will always return happier project outcomes.
