Symantec PAM vs. BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access

Symantec PAM is designed to prevent security breaches by protecting sensitive administrative credentials, controlling privileged user access, proactively enforcing security policies, and monitoring and recording privileged user activity across virtual, cloud, and physical environments. The solution provides a privileged credential vault, session recording, threat analytics, host-based access control for mission-critical servers, and application-to-application password management to address non-human actors, such as applications, configuration files, and scripts.

Privileged Remote Access (PRA) eliminates the risks inherent in remote access solutions dependent on VPNs and RDP. PRA delivers seamless, just-in-time access through encrypted tunnels to IT and OT systems. Each connection is brokered by the BeyondTrust platform, ensuring a zero-trust approach that grants the least amount of privilege necessary. By providing least-privileged access on demand, you can streamline operations, while reducing your attack surface and administrative overhead.
