WallixAdminBastion is a privileged user management solution. It’s designed to give you comprehensive control, monitoring and reporting for access to servers and other devices across your network.

Audit and compliance

Audit and compliance

The challenge:

Servers in your network house huge amounts of potentially sensitive data. Compliance and auditing may need you to be able to provide a full trail of how this data has been accessed.

Let’s get personal• Data stored on your network may not only

relate specifically to your business• Information that about people or finance is

strictly governed• It’s vital for an auditor to be able to know how

this kind of data has been accessed and by who

Audit and compliance

How Wallix helps:

• Risk prevention is based on traceability of users access to servers and their actions

• All of these actions are collected centrally as logs and videos which can be made available to auditors

• You can see a list of active sessions and monitor them in real-time• See activity by particular users or on particular servers to identify

unusual behaviour• Full visibility of all of this data in the event of a breach or other

security incident

Privileged user management

Privileged user management

The challenge:Many organisations today need to give varying levels of access to large numbers of individuals. This is adding complexity to keeping data secure.

The Snowden Effect• US whistleblower Edward Snowden • Contracted systems administrator at the NSA • Copied more than 50,000 documents

Privileged user management

How Wallix helps:

• WAB becomes a single point of entry for users to all your network devices

• Users have a single account for access to multiple resources • Greater control over users who need access changes or leave your

organisation• Control access by parameters such as IP address, day and time or

session type• Ideal for managing contractors or external service providers

Monitoring and traceability

Monitoring and traceability

The challenge:

It’s difficult to get visibility of how users are accessing the servers on your network and also what they’re doing whilst logged on.

Too much information• Understanding system event logs requires

time and effort• Specific user activities are often hard to

determine• SIEM solutions often focus on external threats

not internal users

Monitoring and traceability

How Wallix helps:• User activity can be constantly monitored alerting a manager or denying

access if particular actions are attempted• Goes beyond event logging by tracing every single mouse click and keyboard

stroke using system log information and optical character recognition• Command line sessions like SSH as well as UI sessions on Windows servers

are can all be recorded• Recorded sessions can be viewed as text or recorded as videos which can be

viewed and downloaded instantly

Password management

Password management

The challenge:

Networks are full of servers with old accounts and passwords that are still active and could be accessed by those who don’t have permission. Accounts and password for access to servers are often created ad hoc and independently of any directory services.

The keys to your kingdom• In 2011 an IT employee at Fannie Mae was

dismissed• In his final hours he used his laptop to access

a Unix server and plant malicious code• He was targeting the destruction of 4000

internal servers

Password management

How Wallix helps:• Users never need to have local access to servers• It’s easy to manage users who should no longer have access to

particular resources without having to worry about accounts on the devices themselves

• This helps to protect your infrastructure from any unauthorised access particularly for contractors or employees who have left your organisation

Just the facts

• Appliance, virtualised or in the cloud• Simple configuration• No agent to install• Active directory integration
