What is Xsuite?
Xceedium Xsuite™ is a privileged identity management tool that enables you to control and audit privileged access to physical, cloud-based, or hybrid cloud-based IT infrastructure.
Why Use Xsuite?
You have to protect your organization from its most serious security risk: the risk of rogue systems administrators or hackers with stolen credentials easily stealing your data or crashing your critical systems.
Xsuite prevents privileged users — employees and third parties — from harming your critical systems and data. It’s a proactive tool that stops privileged users from taking unauthorized actions, preventing damage and loss while providing alerts and detailed forensic data to help investigate incidents.
Traditional perimeter defenses can’t protect systems from privileged user risks — Xsuite does.
Perimeter defenses also are useless against privileged user risks encountered in cloud-only and hybrid-cloud architectures. Xsuite solves the problem:
- It controls access to hybrid-cloud infrastructure, regardless of where it resides (in traditional data centers, in virtualized environments, or on public or private clouds);
- Assures auditor approval of cloud deployments via privileged user controls and visibility, supporting conformance to compliance mandates and audit requirements; and
- Speeds the deployment of trusted cloud applications, providing the protection traditional perimeter defenses can’t deliver in hybrid-cloud environments.
Who Should Use Xsuite?
- Administrators – Xsuite simplifies policy management for access controls and password management for privileged users including IT staff, authorized business users, and third parties (e.g., contractors, outsourcers, hardware and software vendors, service providers, etc.).
- Security Teams – Xsuite protects sensitive infrastructure and helps manage risks, including data and privacy breaches, intellectual property theft, malicious destruction of data and systems, and stolen credentials.
- Compliance and Audit Professionals – Xsuite ensures and proves compliance with a broad range of regulatory standards including PCI DSS, HIPAA, NERC CIP, FISMA, GLBA, and many others
- Finance Departments – Particularly within highly dynamic cloud computing and virtual infrastructures, Xsuite limits the ability of individuals to automatically obligate organizations to expenditures without the approval of contracting officials.
