Introduction Improving Privileged Accounts Using BeyondTrust
Any account that grants access and privileges above and beyond those of non-privileged accounts is considered privileged. Privileged accounts and credentials are highly valued by threat actors since they are necessary for executing most of the exploitation of vulnerabilities and other attack routes. Privileged accounts or access are involved in almost all security breaches that occur today, either as part of the original compromise or as part of indirect movement and escalation strategies used later in the attack chain.
Improving Privileged Accounts Using BeyondTrust:
Identity Security Insights is an analytics tool that detects potential dangers and unusual activities related to identity theft and improper use of privileged access. The solution offers a unified view of human and non-human identities, accounts, and privileged access.
Password Safe acts as a Vault that protects privileged accounts by managing the passwords and sessions. It helps in generating the passwords ensuring no credentials are left unmanaged. With live session management, the admin can control system and application access completely. Administrators can document, record, and lock down suspicious activity. Session logging data can be sent to an external database via the BeyondTrust Integration Client or the BeyondTrust API, however, it is only accessible on the appliance in an uneditable format for a maximum of ninety days.
Every resource in an enclave operates under a zero-trust framework. This implies that unless their access can be mediated through a gateway, neither end users nor machine identities are trusted for a direct privileged session. All session activities are fully monitored. This holds for any location in which a resource enclave may reside, irrespective of the perimeter.
Password vault, a feature of BeyondTrust Remote Support, enables users to directly inject credentials into final servers and systems. Another degree of password security is added by obfuscating credentials from end users by injecting them directly into sessions.
No VPN is needed to connect safely, easily, and from any location to important IT systems, cloud apps, and OT systems. Give users the precise amount of remote access they require, and only for the brief periods needed, to enforce the least privilege and just-in-time access. Brokering all connections through a single, secure access method greatly reduces the attack surface. Making a single list of approved endpoints available to every user also reduces oversight and auditing.
Grant privileged access that is controlled, self-serving, and automatically terminated after a predetermined amount of time, ticket resolution, or on-call rotation. Instead of relying on the unsafe practice of exploiting shared secrets, users who need access to databases and non-federated systems are given a temporary new account with only the rights they require. The user securely receives this account information, and the entire procedure is fully auditable. With automated approvals and JIT provisioning for users on an on-call schedule, you can take remove obstacles that prevent your team from having the necessary permissions during an emergency.
Managing a huge number of IT service desk requests related to basic user access problems, putting in days or weeks of labor to manually gather the data needed to answer an audit, or devoting time to maintaining inadequate, ineffective technologies like sudo are just a few examples of how your staff might become exhausted. Endpoint Privilege Management improves workflows and streamlines processes to increase administrative productivity. This gives IT and security professionals back time that they may use to strengthen your security posture or for other purposes.
Active Directory Bridge Simplify digital identity management across your Windows, Unix, and Linux platforms with a single, recognizable toolkit.
Conclusion:
With the combination of BeyondTrust and SailPoint, you can effectively manage, trace, and secure all identities within your organization while maintaining user productivity. By adding ad hoc evaluations of user access, the BeyondTrust PAM Platform's entitlements are sent straight to SailPoint through API, offering full support for the out-of-station procedures outlined in the Predictive Identity Platform.
