Contractors who previously provided these services physically, now need remote access to relevant equipment to support their contract and keep production lines running smoothly.
In times like these, where every organization is reducing staff on site, the need for secure remote access is increased.
Do you have granular privileged access control? A maintenance person from a manufacturer of a control system for example, likely only needs to access a specific controller for a specific task for a limited time.
To mitigate risk, you need to be able to extend access for that specific user only to necessary assets for a set time window with a few simple clicks.
Can you proactively monitor, prevent, and audit access? You need visibility and control over third-party and employee access before, during, and after a remote session takes place.
