Granular, just-in-time access to critical IT assets

For mission critical accounts in your network, administrators need to enforce additional layers of security to eliminate the risk of standing privileges. Assume that a user in your organization is requesting elevated privileges to access a critical asset, network device, or a virtual machine. Before providing access, administrators need to verify if elevated privileges are really required, and if yes, what levels of privileges are required for the job role, and the reason for access. If the request is valid, time limited access needs to be provided to that particular account, and access needs to be revoked after the stipulated time ends.

Enforce just-in-time controls for sensitive accounts with well-defined approval workflows

Securden helps IT administrators stay on top of mission critical accounts with advanced approval workflows. When a critical account needs to be accessed,

  • Users need to raise a request to administrators or account managers designated as Approvers

  • Approvers can demand a reason/justification for access, upon providing which can approve the access request for the user for a designated time window

  • Administrators can configure auto approval for certain users and exclude certain users from accessing a particular account to avoid time delay

  • The passwords of the accounts can be randomized after use by choosing Reset password after use
