Admin By Request EPM lets users elevate only what a task needs, without keeping local admin rights switched on permanently. For longer work there's a time-limited Admin Session, and for a one-off there's Run As Admin, which elevates a single application and nothing else. Approvals go through the portal, mobile app, or API, and software you already trust can be waved through automatically with pre-approval and AI and Machine Learning auto-approval. Because privileges are set per user or group, a developer, an office worker, and an outside contractor each get an approach that suits them. It covers Windows, macOS, and Linux, comes with auditing and inventory as standard, and needs no extra infrastructure to run.
