These capabilities enhance a customer ’ s ability to provision user access to sensitive data and cloud resources on a time-bounded and ‘ as-needed ’ basis .
While regulations and industry best practices are moving towards zero-standing privileges ( verses permanent privileged access as provided by traditional PAM offerings ), companies have struggled to implement JIT with existing tools , particularly in cloud and hybrid environments ; Entitle solves this issue with its automated provisioning workflows , self-serve access requests , and 150 plus integrations across IaaS / PaaS platforms and SaaS apps .
This acquisition includes all Entitle products , employees , customers , partners , assets and intellectual property .
BeyondTrust further solidifies its industryleading Privilege Identity Security platform with the acquisition of Entitle , expanding beyond traditional privileged access management ( PAM ) to encompass dynamic , just-in-time access management across cloud , SaaS and on-premises environments .
Adding Entitle to its product portfolio enhances the capability to address the sophisticated challenges of PAM and cloud infrastructure entitlement management ( CIEM ) in today ’ s cloud-centric landscape , with a unified orchestration approach that enriches the platform with advanced identity governance functionalities .
