What is Privileged Remote Access?

What is Privileged Remote Access (PRA)?

Privileged Remote Access (PRA) securely manages and controls remote access to critical systems for privileged users, such as administrators, IT personnel, and third-party vendors.

PRA is part of our broader suite of Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions.

How is it useful to my organization?

Privileged Remote Access (PRA) securely manages remote access to sensitive systems, ensuring that only authorized users can access critical resources with the appropriate level of privilege. It provides real-time session monitoring, auditing, and recording, which helps you maintain compliance and detect any unauthorized or risky activities. By enforcing least-privilege access and supporting third-party vendor management, it reduces the attack surface and enhances overall security for remote operations.

Additional Security Layers

Visibility into identity-based risks

To further secure remote access, you can benefit from increased visibility into identities that hold potentially risky permissions. Learn how Insights detects and evaluates these identities continuously, providing clearer context on who has access to what, and why.

Zero-standing access

Another effective approach is adopting just-in-time access principles, automatically removing permissions from accounts when they're not actively used. Solutions like Entitle enable temporary provisioning of access, reducing exposure from inactive but privileged accounts.
