REINFORCE SECURE ACCESS TO CRITICAL SYSTEMS
Add an extra layer of security only when needed — and based on risk rating — to reduce the threat associated with compromised privileged credentials. Configure behavior-based access control for IT admins who access Windows and Linux servers, elevate privilege or leverage privileged credentials.
Guard Against Attacks with Behavior-Based Access Control
-
Extra layer of security for users logging into Windows, Linux and UNIX systems or who require privilege elevation.
-
Keep accounts secure even if your privileged credentials are compromised.
-
Easily implement one cohesive solution to enforce PCI DSS’ multi-factor authentication (MFA) requirements across your enterprise for all your privileged local, remote and third-party users who require access to your sensitive data environment.
-
Reinforce privileged access policies with additional multi-factor authentication (MFA).
-
Guard against cyber threats to prevent access to valuable data.
-
Flexible choices for MFA challenges, including those you already own — RSA environments, OATH-based tokens, USB PKI keys and smart cards, including derived credentials for regulatory compliance.
WHY MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION (MFA) FOR PRIVILEGED USERS?
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds a layer of security that allows organizations to protect against today’s leading cause of data breaches — privileged access abuse. Privileged users simply provide extra information or factors when they access critical enterprise resources.
Multi-factor authentication uses a combination of the following factors:
Something You Know
Something You Have
Something You've Done
Risk-Based Policies for Password Checkouts and Privileged Sessions
Identify anomalous behavior while it is happening, by enforcing risk-aware policies for users who are initiating a privileged session or checking out a password. Combining risk-aware policies with role-based access controls, user context and multi-factor authentication (MFA) enable intelligent, automated, real-time decisions on whether to grant privileged access. These dynamically enforced access policies grant the user access, prompt for a second factor of authentication, or block access completely.
Interoperability with Third-Party Authentication Methods
Centrify’s adaptive multi-factor authentication (MFA) capabilities are designed to work well with existing investments in RSA, OATH-based tokens and smartcards such as PIV/CAC. These can all be brought under Centrify’s centralized management and enforced across your enterprise.
