Securden Unified PAM vs. ARCON | Endpoint Privilege Management

Access privileges and their corresponding credentials play a crucial role in safeguarding an organization's sensitive information. The nature of this sensitive data can differ widely depending on the sector; for instance, healthcare entities manage extensive patient records, while banks oversee financial and customer information. It is vital to secure access to these privileged accounts, as they are frequently unmanaged and scattered throughout the organization. A comprehensive Privileged Access Management solution, such as Securden Unified PAM, is essential for gathering all privileged identities and accounts into a centralized vault, simplifying management. By limiting access to these accounts and applying the Just-in-time access principle, organizations can enhance security. Users can initiate remote connections to authorized IT resources with a single click, while monitoring and managing these sessions for users, third-party vendors, and IT administrators through shadowing capabilities. Additionally, organizations should eliminate local admin rights on endpoints and implement application control policies to effectively uphold a Zero-Trust approach without hindering productivity. Furthermore, it is important to record and monitor all activities with thorough audit trails and actionable reports to maintain compliance with industry regulations, ultimately ensuring the protection of sensitive information.

The ARCON | Endpoint Privilege Management (EPM) solution offers a dynamic approach to endpoint privileges, delivering access in a 'just-in-time' or 'on-demand' fashion while keeping a vigilant eye on all users. This powerful tool excels at detecting insider threats, compromised accounts, and various malicious efforts aimed at breaching endpoints. With its sophisticated User Behavior Analytics feature, the solution tracks regular user activities to identify any atypical behavioral patterns and other potential threats within the network. Its comprehensive governance framework enables you to swiftly blacklist harmful applications, limit data transfers from devices to external storage, and enforce precise access controls, allowing for the elevation or demotion of privileges as required. Regardless of the increasing number of endpoints resulting from remote work and flexible access policies, this single management tool ensures their security effectively. This flexibility empowers you to modify privileges according to your discretion and preferred timing, thereby maintaining both security and operational efficiency seamlessly. Ultimately, the solution not only safeguards sensitive information but also enhances overall productivity across the organization.
