Welcome to Endpoint Privilege Management for Unix and Linux
What is Endpoint Privilege Management for Unix and Linux (EPM for Unix and Linux)?
EPM for Unix and Linux is a cybersecurity solution designed to enforce least privilege access and control on Unix and Linux systems. This solution is critical for organizations managing sensitive workloads on Unix and Linux systems, ensuring both robust security and compliance, without compromising productivity.
How is it useful?
EPM for Unix and Linux helps organizations reduce the risks associated with excessive user privileges while maintaining operational efficiency and complying with security and regulatory requirements. Some of the key features include:
- Least Privilege Enforcement: Grants users only the privileges necessary to perform specific tasks without giving full root or admin access.
- Granular Access Controls: Defines who can execute which commands and under what conditions, using fine-grained policies.
- Privilege Elevation: Allows users to elevate privileges for approved tasks without sharing root credentials.
- Centralized Policy Management: Enables administrators to create, manage, and distribute policies from a single location.
- Session Logging and Auditing: Records all elevated activity, providing detailed logs for compliance and forensic analysis.
- Application Control: Restricts which applications can be run on Unix/Linux systems to reduce attack surface.
- Integration with Identity Providers: Supports integration with enterprise identity and access management systems (e.g., LDAP, Active Directory).
- Multifactor Authentication (MFA): Adds an extra layer of security for elevated access requests.
