Securden Unified PAM is a glove-fit for Managed IT service providers (MSPs) who wish to remove local admin rights, control endpoint privileges, and define application control policies to safeguard their clients.
Threatlocker Protect is a fully cloud based endpoint privilege management solution that needs a steep learning curve from the IT team.
A lot of MSP clients have remote workers in various time zones across the world. Each client with a different job function and application access requirements. Because of this, the IT administrator has to be at the beck and call of Threatlocker requests nearly 24/7.
Threatlocker tries to solve this problem by delegating elevation decisions to their Cyber Hero team. The ‘cyber heroes’ operate on their customers sites – creating endpoint policies, approving/rejecting internal elevation requests and so on. They need to be purchased as a separate service.
While some companies do not mind offboarding their user IT tickets and other application requests – organizations that work with the strict regulatory requirements cannot fully rely on a third-party user having control of what users can and cannot access in internal IT.
Securden offers an endpoint application and privileged access management tool that can be fully configured by the IT personnel with ease. The approval process for applications is straightforward, can be integrated into existing ticketing system workflows and can be fully automated to reduce manual effort and time.
