Streamlined vendor access management that enables the outside support you need while securing third-party access across every network, user, and application environment.
Vendor Access Management
The Challenge
Companies depend on vendors for essential services, including work that requires access to the company’s internal systems. That might mean creating accounts for third-party personnel to connect directly to your assets to provide support and maintenance. It can also mean providing privileged access to your network directly to vendor software, hardware, or systems. But with third parties being an increasing means of attack, how can you securely manage and monitor vendors while enabling necessary access?
Protect Every App, Workload, and Site
Wherever a third party needs access, keep it secure with MFA, SSO, and zero trust access policies across all cloud, datacenter, and cyber-physical infrastructure.
Manage Vendor Access and Prevent Attacks
Provide secure remote access while controlling every interaction and session to prevent credential abuse and insider threats.
Increase Productivity and Reduce Complexity
Manage identities, credentials, and privileges for vendors in a single solution. Accelerate business without compromising security.
