The One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords
Safeguard for Privileged Passwords virtual appliances and cloud applications are also available. When setting up a virtual environment, carefully consider the configuration aspects such as CPU, memory availability, I/O subsystem, and network infrastructure to ensure the virtual layer has the necessary resources available. See One Identity's Product Support Policies for more information on environment virtualization.
Safeguard privileged management software is used to control, monitor, and govern privileged user accounts and activities to identify possible malicious activities, detect entitlement risks, and provide tamper proof evidence. The Safeguard products also aid incident investigation, forensics work, and compliance efforts.
The Safeguard products' unique strengths are:
The suite includes the following modules:
One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) is part of One Identity's Privileged Access Management portfolio. Addressing large enterprise needs, SPS is a privileged session management solution, which provides industry-leading access control, as well as session monitoring and recording to prevent privileged account misuse, facilitate compliance, and accelerate forensics investigations.
SPS is a quickly deployable enterprise appliance, completely independent from clients and servers to integrate seamlessly into existing networks. It captures the activity data necessary for user profiling and enables full user session drill-down for forensics investigations.
NOTE: Configuration options and details related to SPS will only be visible to customers that have purchased and joined the product to One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords.
One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Analytics (SPA) integrates data from SPS to use as the basis of privileged user behavior analysis. Safeguard for SPA uses machine learning algorithms to scrutinize behavioral characteristics, and generates user behavior profiles for each individual privileged user. Safeguard for SPA compares actual user activity to user profiles in real time, and profiles are continually adjusted using machine learning. Safeguard for SPA detects anomalies and ranks them based on risk so you can prioritize and take appropriate action and ultimately prevent data breaches.
