An effective IT security solution requires controlling vulnerability throughout the entire network. As organizations become more dependent on IT networks, their servers, workstations, remote systems, devices, and even firewalls and databases become susceptible to attack. Securing each of these IT assets has become a security best practice.
According to industry research, 34% of companies suffered a security breach in the previous 12 months1. The same research estimates that the average financial damage of a security breach is $369,388 - clearly substantiating the risks of not securing every system and account in the enterprise.
Regulatory mandates, from PCI to Sarbanes-Oxley to HIPAA, have also become a daily imperative for most organizations, further compelling IT groups to establish a comprehensive security policy. Failure to comply with regulatory initiatives can result in stiff fines, the loss of access to crediting agencies, and similar penalties.
The Lieberman Software Solution
Lieberman Software provides local and domain security management solutions that proactively protect systems against internal and external attacks, identify and remediate threats, and generate thorough, audit-ready security reports. With our privileged account management and configuration management products, organizations can benefit from:
Privileged Password Management
Deploying systems with identical privileged account passwords introduces the risk that one compromised password can lead to unrestricted peer-level access. Frequently providing each account with its own unique password mitigates this threat.
Automatic Password Propagation
Automatically discovering and propagating privileged password changes every place they are referenced in the network. This reduces account lockouts and cascading systems failures caused when applications persist in accessing obsolete credentials.
Temporary Administrative Privileges
Delegate users with the audited, temporary credentials needed to safely complete common systems administration activities.
Regulatory Compliance
Provide security auditors with comprehensive reports about users, groups, right, settings, passwords, and more.
Oversight Control
Enhance oversight control through comprehensive reports and logs, which alert management to potential problems throughout the network.
Increase Productivity
Centrally manage systems in the constantly evolving IT infrastructure, without resorting to manual processes.
