Delinea Introduces Privilege Control for Servers, Marking a New Era in Preventing Stolen Credentials

Delinea’s introduction of Privilege Control for Servers on the Delinea Platform signifies a significant step in enforcing least privilege principles on critical systems. This move aims to enhance security by mitigating risks associated with stolen credentials and restricting lateral movement across identities.

Delinea is at the forefront of transforming how organizations enforce privilege, utilizing a unified cloud-native platform to reduce security risks, facilitate compliance adherence, and enhance overall productivity.

Delinea’s Privilege Control for Servers, integrated into the Delinea Platform, offers a comprehensive solution to enforce least privilege principles on critical systems across identities. By centralizing privilege elevation on Active Directory identities, it helps organizations limit standing privileges, manage privileged access to various servers in hybrid cloud environments, and mitigate the risk of compromised credentials through Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) at multiple stages. This approach enhances security, aids in compliance adherence, and promotes efficient management of privileged access.

Delinea’s VPN-less and agentless privileged remote access offers a secure solution for remote workers and vendors to access critical resources and data. Whether utilizing a vaulted credential or an Active Directory identity, this approach ensures secure access without directly exposing or entering credentials. Privileged activities are authorized according to policies, and remote sessions are recorded and audited, providing a robust security framework for managing privileged access remotely.

In Privilege Control for Servers, session recording and auditing take place on the host, ensuring the integrity of the data by preventing alterations. The shared capability allows session and audit data to be unified and stored in the Delinea Platform. This streamlines storage and access while leveraging Delinea’s AI-driven auditing, currently in public preview. The AI-driven auditing functionality helps expedite the identification of potentially risky activities, reducing the time required for manual review of extensive session recordings.

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity threats, particularly with the rise of sophisticated ransomware attacks, organizations are compelled to enhance their security measures. As the intricacy of identities and environments grows, the concept of privilege emerges as a pivotal element in fortifying defenses. Phil Calvin, Chief Product Officer at Delinea, emphasized, “The introduction of Privilege Control for Servers strengthens the authorization capabilities within the Delinea Platform, marking it as the foremost cloud-native unified PAM solution—delivering heightened security, resilience, and scalability compared to other alternatives.”

In the contemporary landscape of enterprise security, the paradigm has shifted, and privilege has become the new frontier. The introduction of Privilege Control for Servers, integrated into the Delinea Platform, signifies a substantial enhancement in privilege protection. This comprehensive solution, part of the Secret Server suite, empowers organizations to fortify their security posture by layering defenses on privileged activities. This strategic approach aims to mitigate the risks associated with credential theft, ensuring a robust shield against unauthorized access to critical data and infrastructure.

Privilege Control for Servers serves as a trailblazer in implementing just-in-time and just-enough privileges within the Delinea Platform. This naming convention, with solutions adopting the format Privilege Control for [Use Case], provides customers with a clear and identifiable structure. As additional solutions integrate into the platform, this standardized approach simplifies the process for customers to discern and select the solutions that align with their distinct Privileged Access Management and identity security needs.
