WALLIX already secures the AD of 1,300 organisations worldwide, including many hospitals, essential service operators, and administrations.
WALLIX Bastion also enables secure remote access to any organisations IT infrastructure, and the tool allows organisations to manage and monitor all activity on IT systems. If unusual activity is detected on a system, the IT team can use Bastion 9 to analyse each action performed on the system and create a remediation plan to fix security gaps. Analysis reports are created automatically in real time, and can be consulted from a dashboard, which optimizes response time.
WALLIX Bastion is also able to secure access to any cloud service that has been identified by IT teams, and the solution now automatically detects connections to any cloud service and secured access. In addition, with AAPM (Application-to-Application Password Management) technology, WALLIX Bastion 9 manages connections by storing service account passwords in a digital vault. Service account passwords are also changed regularly, to increase cybersecurity strength.

In fact, it is this version of our flagship WALLIX Bastion solution that has enabled us to move up from "Niche" player to "Challenger" in Gartner's 2021 Magic Quadrant, as well as being recognized as the European leader in PAM by KuppingerCole Analysts. We have leveraged all our expertise in access and identity security to develop features perfectly adapted to the market's current needs, which have enabled us to provide an effective response to the cybersecurity challenges resulting from the pandemic".
