Securden launches industry-first unified privileged access management platform truly purpose-built for MSPs

Securden

Securden, Inc., a leading provider of privileged access and identity security solutions, announced the launch of Unified PAM MSP, a first-in-class, unique offering for Managed Service Providers. Built on a scalable, multi-tenant architecture with complete data segregation, the Unified PAM MSP delivers all critical Privileged Access Management (PAM) functionalities in a single package. It enables MSPs to offer PAM-as-a-Service to their clients or manage client infrastructure across diverse environments—on-prem, multi-cloud, hybrid—with complete operational flexibility.

Businesses tend to outsource their IT operations due to a variety of reasons. Some organizations fully outsource their IT, while others prefer a co-managed set up. In both models, MSPs play a dominant role in infrastructure access and management. MSPs are always attractive targets for cybercriminals. Lax security measures at the MSP’s end could compromise the client’s data. Robust cybersecurity measures have become non-negotiable for service providers to fend off data breaches. In the backdrop of numerous identity and access-based attacks, Privileged Access Management has emerged as a top priority for MSPs.

MSPs and MSSPs operate in client environments that are incredibly diverse, complex, and dynamic. The nature, type, and number of target IT assets, applications, and users create a complex management challenge for service providers.

Additionally, MSPs work with many clients simultaneously, which calls for multiple workflows, policies, and a combination of technologies to be put in place to manage the plethora of incoming access requests. Furthermore, the client organizations that MSPs serve present a wide range of governance and compliance needs that require granular controls and complete flexibility over administrative operations.

IT service providers often end up deploying multiple disjointed solutions to tackle this wide array of requirements. This piecemeal approach creates critical gaps in visibility and fails to fit seamlessly into overall IT operations.

“When trying to implement a privileged access security solution, MSPs face a lot of roadblocks. The needs of MSPs vastly differ, and each MSP is unique in its operating model. Though there are many good general-purpose PAM solutions in the market, when it comes to catering to the specific access security needs of MSPs, there is a huge gap,” said Bala Venkatramani, CEO of Securden, Inc.
