BeyondTrust Product Line: PWS, EPM, and PRA Overview

BeyondTrust offers an integrated, identity-centric portfolio designed to secure credentials, enforce least privilege, and control high-risk remote access across hybrid enterprise environments.

  1. Password Safe (PWS) BeyondTrust Password Safe is an enterprise-grade Privileged Credential Management and Session Management solution that discovers, manages, and audits privileged accounts across on-premises, cloud, and DevOps infrastructures.
    1. Automated Discovery & Rotation: Continuously discovers unmanaged administrative accounts, service accounts, and SSH keys, automating regular credential rotation and complex password policy enforcement.
    2. Just-in-Time (JIT) Credential Injection: Eliminates hardcoded or shared passwords by dynamically checking out credentials or injecting them directly into administrative sessions without exposing the plaintext secrets to end users.
    3. Live Session Monitoring & Control: Provides real-time privileged session tracking, keystroke logging, and video recording, with automated termination capabilities when suspicious commands are executed.
  2. Endpoint Privilege Management (EPM) BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management removes local administrator rights across Windows, macOS, Unix, and Linux systems without disrupting user productivity.
    1. Privilege Elevation & Delegation: Replaces broad administrative rights with policy-driven privilege elevation tailored to specific applications, scripts, or tasks rather than granting elevated rights to user accounts.
    2. Application Control & Whitelisting: Enforces granular application allowlists and denylists, blocking unauthorized executables, scripts, and untrusted DLLs to defend against ransomware and zero-day threats.
    3. Context-Aware Pragmatism: Uses contextual risk factors—such as network location, certificate validation, and threat intelligence—to dynamically decide whether an application or process should run with standard or elevated rights.
  3. Privileged Remote Access (PRA) BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access secures and audits internal IT administrators and third-party vendor connections to critical internal assets, all without requiring traditional VPN tunnels.
    1. VPN-Less Zero Trust Architecture: Enforces least privilege by granting technicians access solely to the specific server, desktop, or cloud resource required for their task, completely preventing broad network exposure.
    2. Session Recording & Audit Trails: Captures searchable, granular logs and full video replays of all remote sessions, establishing verifiable compliance records for forensic audits.
    3. Vendor & Supply Chain Security: Simplifies onboarding for contractors through browser-based access, credential injection, and multi-factor authentication (MFA), preventing supply-chain-borne lateral movement.

Together, PWS, EPM, and PRA unify credential control, endpoint protection, and secure remote access to neutralize identity-based attack vectors.
