Overview

Organizations are collecting and using more data than ever before, increasing breach and regulatory compliance risks. How do you ensure sensitive information is only available to authorized individuals across massive data libraries and distributed staff?

OpenText™ Privileged Access Manager (NetIQ) eliminates the need to distribute root-account credentials to your entire administrative staff. It delegates administrative access using centralized policies. These policies can be configured to allow or deny user activity based on a comprehensive “who, what, where, when” model that examines the user’s name, typed command, host name, and time. You control what commands users are authorized to run.
