Privileged User Monitoring
Take a data-centric approach to employee productivity tracking
Privileged User Monitoring, Privileged Access Management and DLP Technology to Protect Your Data & IT Systems
Privileged users have access to your core IT systems, network, applications, and data. The threats associated with privileged user accounts can be incredibly difficult to detect before they cause damage.
Teramind’s real-time privileged user monitoring and data loss prevention solutions help you monitor privileged users to automatically detect anomalous behavior and suspicious activity.
System Wide Monitoring and Control
Teramind’s privileged user monitoring visually records every action that a privileged user makes on your IT systems, including endpoints, servers/terminal servers, network, and the Cloud
Monitor virtually all activities including actions taken in custom apps, web use, app use, file transfer and more
Uncover what your users are up to, both online and offline using privileged user monitoring
Configure rules and policies with consideration to what needs to be monitored and who has access to monitored data
Get instant administrative oversight that helps to satisfy privacy compliance requirements
Intelligent Policy & Rule Engine
The core of Teramind’s privileged access monitoring platform is its automation. Teramind comes with hundreds of pre-defined policies and rules
Block email containing sensitive keywords, stop uploads of sensitive files, detect screen captures and prohibit external drives
Templates cover almost every use-case for data loss prevention, insider threat detection and privileged-user security
Use pre-built compliance templates to enforce compliance, user privacy and privileged user monitoring
Easily load templates then customize them to fit your specific monitoring needs
Real-Time Alerts and Notifications
Real-time alerts from the privileged user access monitoring system show what rules were broken, when they were broken and what user was in violation
Get alerted to privileged user rule violations as soon as they happen with instant alerts
Receive alert and notification reports on what actions were taken and in what context
Send privileged users instant warnings when their risky and suspicious activities are detected
Set up a monitoring widget on the dashboard for real-time privileged user monitoring updates active users
Behavioral Anomaly Detection
Define what constitutes dangerous or harmful user behavior within privileged access monitoring then automatically detect it with Teramind anomaly detection
Define baselines then automatically detect when a user, department, or group deviates from their normal parameters
Leverage behavior anomaly detection to get alerts when acceptable risk levels are exceeded
Detect behavior anomalies in apps, emails, network use, file activities or printing
Stop malicious attempts by locking users out or taking remote control of the compromised system after an anomaly alert is received
Remote Desktop Control
Teramind’s remote control feature gives you the ability to remove users, contain activity, and eliminate threats associated with privileged user accounts
Instantly take away a user’s ability to access a desktop with Teramind’s privileged access monitoring
Manually override an account and remove users or disable mouse and keyboard control so no further action can be taken
Access the remote control feature from any live session with a single click
Authentication and Access Control
Role Based Access Control (RBAC), authentication and segregated privileges prevent unauthorized access or sharing of confidential data
Set up account access for each privileged user that requires authorized clearance and easily track what each user is doing at any given time
Use group profiles to create different access levels based on departments, job function, or source of access (i.e. remoteor third-party)
See what information and system resources each group or department can access
Session Recording and Audit
Teramind visually records every action that a user makes while on a machine, allowing for both live viewing and past recordings. Extensive metadata and fast indexing from privileged user monitoring allow past incidents to be searched and retrieved in seconds.
Investigate user actions, rule violations and other incidents using session recordings
Export logs detailing privileged user sessions as PDF or CSV or import logs into monitoring and analytics systems like LogRhythm
Options to access audio through privileged user monitoring supports audio input/output monitoring
Activate audio support then download and export privileged user monitoring sessions with audio as MP4s
Risk Analysis and Mitigation
Use Teramind’s dedicate Risk Assessment dashboard to conduct organization-wide risk assessments and risk assessments of privileged users
Profile risk by user, team, department or across the entire organization or by content
Derive reports by severity of risks or by how many times security violations occurred
Unique Risk Scores within the privileged user monitoring system help you identify high-risk users or policies
Risk scores can be used to develop plans for treating risks
IAM/PAM/SIEM Integration
Teramind privileged user monitoring allows you to share reports and threat intelligence with your security team or other departments and easily integrate with SIEM and other analytics tools
Integrate Teramind into your project management system or SIEM directly from the dashboard
RESTful APIs can be easily utilized by access/identity management (IAM/PAM) applications to create a single-sign-on (SSO) policy or share logs
Support plug-and-play integrations include HP ArcSight, Splunk, IBM QRadar, McAfee, LogRhythm and more
The Features That Power Teramind
Monitor Privileged Users & Contractors with Teramind
Enable Solid Access Control and Privilege Management
Apply individual and group level profiles, MFA, and segregated access levels to minimize identity compromise and account hijacking
Real-time Monitoring for Visibility & Control
Teramind’s remote employee monitoring keeps track of all user activity over endpoints, servers/terminal servers, network and the Cloud. Monitor all user activity covering 12+ system objects like: web pages, apps, email, file transfers, instant messaging, social media, and more
Detect Anomalies with Intelligent Behavioral Engine
Intelligent behavior analysis can detect malicious user activity and anomalies that indicate deviation from normal behavioral baseline
Protect Data and Privacy with Endpoint DLP
Prevent mishandling of confidential data like sharing over the Cloud or removable media. Dynamic blackout and access on a need-to-know basis means privileged users can’t see private employee data, customer information, and other sensitive data not relevant to their role
Conduct Forensic Investigation and IT Audit
Video/audio recording of all user activity, session recording, immutable logs, alerts, and optional OCR search are just a few examples of Teramind’s powerful audit and forensic capabilities. Together they provide a vast collection of investigation data to locate the cause and source of any privileged user-related threats with pinpoint accuracy
Enforce Least Privilege, Zero Trust Policy and Rules
Use the powerful Policy & Rules Editor to define what constitutes privilege abuse. Teramind then takes immediate actions like warn, block, lockout user, or take remote control of a system when a rule violation attempt is detected
Monitor External and Remote Users for Extra Protection
Monitor external and remote users like employees connected over VPN or terminal server, third-party vendors, contractors, and freelancers who have access to your critical systems to prevent sabotage or data theft
Conform with Compliance Laws and Standards
Privileged user monitoring and access management is required for most of the major compliance regimens, including HIPAA, PCI-DSS, GDPR, ISO 27001 etc. With Teramind’s built-in compliance management features, companies can ensure the integrity and transparency for administrative access to PII, PHI, and other regulated data by privileged users
Risk Analysis to Identify Security Gaps & Vulnerabilities
Dynamic risk scoring and vulnerabilities scanning identifies top risky users, policy, and rules and system components. Trend graphs and severity mapping warn you about any change in threat level before it becomes critical
