It is a fundamental concept in security that minimizes risk to the business or organization.\r\nThere are two types of access control: physical and logical. Physical access control limits access to campuses, buildings, rooms and physical IT assets. Logical access control limits connections to computer networks, system files and data.\r\nTo secure a facility, organizations use electronic access control systems that rely on user credentials, access card readers, auditing and reports to track employee access to restricted business locations and proprietary areas, such as data centers. Some of these systems incorporate access control panels to restrict entry to rooms and buildings as well as alarms and lockdown capabilities to prevent unauthorized access or operations.\r\nAccess control systems perform identification authentication and authorization of users and entities by evaluating required login credentials that can include passwords, personal identification numbers (PINs), biometric scans, security tokens or other authentication factors. Multifactor authentication, which requires two or more authentication factors, is often an important part of layered defense to protect access control systems.\r\nThese security controls work by identifying an individual or entity, verifying that the person or application is who or what it claims to be, and authorizing the access level and set of actions associated with the username or IP address. Directory services and protocols, including the Local Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) and the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), provide access controls for authenticating and authorizing users and entities and enabling them to connect to computer resources, such as distributed applications and web servers.\r\nOrganizations use different access control models depending on their compliance requirements and the security levels of information technology they are trying to protect.\r\nThe goal of access control is to minimize the risk of unauthorized access to physical and logical systems. Access control is a fundamental component of security compliance programs that ensures security technology and access control policies are in place to protect confidential information, such as customer data. Most organizations have infrastructure and procedures that limit access to networks, computer systems, applications, files and sensitive data, such as personally identifiable information and intellectual property.\r\nAccess control systems are complex and can be challenging to manage in dynamic IT environments that involve on-premises systems and cloud services. After some high-profile breaches, technology vendors have shifted away from single sign-on systems to unified access management, which offers access controls for on-premises and cloud environments.\r\nAccess control is a process that is integrated into an organization's IT environment. It can involve identity and access management systems. These systems provide access control software, a user database, and management tools for access control policies, auditing and enforcement.\r\nWhen a user is added to an access management system, system administrators use an automated provisioning system to set up permissions based on access control frameworks, job responsibilities and workflows.\r\nThe best practice of "least privilege" restricts access to only resources that an employee requires to perform their immediate job functions.\r\nA common security issue is failure to revoke credentials and access to systems and data when an individual moves into a different job internally or leaves the company.","materialsDescription":"<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">What is an ACS?</span>\r\nInterpretation of the abbreviation "ACS" - access control system. Includes hardware and software.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">How does ACS work?</span>\r\nThe system allows only people and cars that it “recognizes” into the territory to be able to identify.\r\nFor access we use contact and contactless keys, cards, fingerprints, secret code. Doorphones unlock the locks manually - when you click the "Open" button.\r\nThe intellectual access control system generates daily reports for each employee. Upon arrival at work, the staff opens the door with personal cards or puts the cards to the reader at the reception. We fix the time of breaks and the end of the working day.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">What are the types of access control?</span>\r\nAccess control systems are divided into autonomous and networked:\r\n<span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Autonomous access control systems</span> are not connected to the computer. Suitable for small offices, cafes, shops, hotels. Autonomous systems are used on sites with 1–2 inputs.\r\n<span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Network access control systems</span> are connected to a computer. Such systems serve complex objects: business centers, manufacturing, research institutes, hospitals, etc.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">What is the access control system?</span>\r\nMain components:\r\n1. Blocking devices. Electromagnetic and electromechanical locks, barriers, gates, etc.\r\n2.

Readers. Card readers, scanners, etc.\r\n4. Controllers. Unlock the blocking device automatically or manually. Manual input is used in intercoms.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Is it possible to combine an access control system with a security alarm?</span>\r\nThe unified access control system + security alarm system responds to an attempt to illegally pass through the access control point: open the door, unlock the turnstile. The alarm signal instantly arrives on the control panel of the security company, mobile phone manager or another responsible person.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Why combine access control with video surveillance?</span>\r\nWhen integrating with video surveillance, you get video recordings of all passes through access control points. Information from the cameras is transmitted to the monitors of the security in real time - the situation at the facility is easy to control.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Why do you need ACS maintenance?</span>\r\nMaintenance prolongs the life of the system. The equipment is inspected once a month, if necessary, fix minor problems and replace components.

Once inside the repository, system administrators need to go through the privilege management system to access their credentials, at which point they are authenticated and their access is logged. When a credential is checked back in, it is reset to ensure administrators have to go through the PAM system next time they want to use the credential.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Privileged Access Management software by Gartner has the following subcategories:</span>\r\n<ol><li>Shared access password manager (SAPM)</li><li>Superuser password manager (SUPM)</li><li>Privileged session manager (PSM)</li><li>Application access password manager (AAPM)</li></ol>\r\nPAM password vaults (SAPM) provides an extra layer of control over admins and password policies, as well as monitoring trails of privileged access to critical systems. Passwords can follow a veriety of password policies and can even be disposable. Session brokers, or PSMs, take privileged access to another level, ensuring that administrators never see the passwords, their hardened proxy servers such as jump servers also monitor active sessions and enable reviewers to stop admin sessions if they see something wrong. Similarly, AAPMs can release credentials just-in-time for application-to-application communication, and even modify startup scripts to replace hard-coded passwords with API calls to the password vault.","materialsDescription":"<h1 class=\"align-center\">What are privileged accounts?</h1>\r\n<p class=\"align-left\">In a least privileged environment, most users are operating with non-privileged accounts 90-100% of the time. Non-privileged accounts, also called least privileged accounts (LUA) general consist of the following two types:</p>\r\n<p class=\"align-left\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Standard user accounts</span> have a limited set of privileges, such as for Internet browsing, accessing certain types of applications (e.g., MS Office, etc.), and for accessing a limited array of resources, which is often defined by role-based access policies.</p>\r\n<p class=\"align-left\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Guest user accounts </span>possess fewer privileges than standard user accounts, as they are usually restricted to just basic application access and Internet browsing.</p>\r\n<p class=\"align-left\">A privileged account is considered to be any account that provides access and privileges beyond those of non-privileged accounts. A privileged user is any user currently leveraging privileged access, such as through a privileged account. Because of their elevated capabilities and access, privileged users/privileged accounts pose considerably larger risks than non-privileged accounts /non-privileged users. Here are <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">examples of privileged accounts commonly in use across an organization: </span></p>\r\n<ul><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Local administrative accounts.</span> Non-personal accounts providing administrative access to the local host or instance only.<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \"></span></li><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Domain administrative accounts.</span> Privileged administrative access across all workstations and servers within the domain.<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \"></span></li><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Break glass (also called emergency or firecall) accounts. </span> Unprivileged users with administrative access to secure systems in the case of an emergency.<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \"></span></li><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Service accounts.</span> Privileged local or domain accounts that are used by an application or service to interact with the operating system.</li><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Active Directory</span> or domain service accounts. Enable password changes to accounts, etc.</li><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Application accounts.</span> Used by applications to access databases, run batch jobs or scripts, or provide access to other applications.</li></ul>\r\n<h1 class=\"align-center\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">What are the Privileged Access Management features?</span></h1>\r\nPrivileged access management is important for companies that are growing or have a large, complex IT system. Many popular vendors have begun offering enterprise PAM tools such as BeyondTrust, Centrify, CyberArk, SecureLink and Thycotic.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Privileged access management tools and software typically provide the following features:</span>\r\n<ul><li>Multi-factor authentication (MFA) for administrators.</li><li>An access manager that stores permissions and privileged user information.</li><li>A password vault that stores secured, privileged passwords.</li><li>Session tracking once privileged access is granted.</li><li>Dynamic authorization abilities. For example, only granting access for specific periods of time.</li><li>Automated provisioning and deprovisioning to reduce insider threats.</li><li>Audit logging tools that help organizations meet compliance.</li></ul>\r\n<h1 class=\"align-center\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">How is PAM Different from Identity Access Management (IAM)?</span></h1>\r\nPrivileged access management system is sometimes confused with Identity Access Management (IAM). IAM focuses on authenticating and authorizing all types of users for an organization, often including employees, vendors, contractors, partners, and even customers. IAM manages general access to applications and resources, including on-prem and cloud and usually integrates with directory systems such as Microsoft Active Directory.\r\nPAM access management focuses on privileged users, administrators or those with elevated privileges in the organization. PAM systems are specifically designed to manage and guarantee secure privileged access of these users to critical resources.\r\nOrganizations need both tools if they are to protect against attacks. IAM systems cover the larger attack surface of access from the many users across the organization’s ecosystem. PAM focuses on privileged users—but privileged access management products are important because while they cover a smaller attack surface, it’s a high-value surface and requires an additional set of controls normally not relevant or even appropriate for regular users (such as session recording).

NAC solutions have become an extremely valuable tool in recent years, as mobile devices and the Internet of Things (IoT) have surged to prominence in various industries across the world. These new pieces of emerging technology come with their own set of vulnerabilities, which poses a challenge to IT security experts. \r\nNAC systems are put into place to make sure that anyone who enters the system, both in terms of users and devices, is authorized. After being routed the efforts at connection, the network access control system confirms privileges using an identity and access management (IAM, a program that checks users for appropriate permissions to access data materials, as indicated by internal policies). With the information from the IAM, along with a pre-established list of rules, the NAC software is able to smartly accept or deny access requests.\r\nFortunately, NAC products are designed to handle large enterprise networks that have a range of device types trying to connect at all times. Without a NAC in place, companies take on a huge amount of risk by adopting a bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policy, which allows employees and vendors to use their own smartphones and tablets on the local network. Network access control software and hardware require an upfront investment but prove their worth in the long run.","materialsDescription":"<h1 class=\"align-center\"> How a NAC solution works?</h1>\r\nWhen you adopt a network access control solution, the first thing it will do is find all devices currently accessing the system; identify what kind of device they are; and determine whether to validate them and how to treat them using preestablished protocols designed by the company’s security personnel. A network access control system has rules related to a wide spectrum of devices, along with finely grained settings to help you determine permissions. A unified administrative system houses these rules and applies them as needed.\r\nMany companies will utilize NAC as their staff grows and they have an increasing number of devices to manage. These solutions are also helpful for achieving data protection across a variety of different branch locations. The difficulty of securing an organization and managing access has become especially overwhelming in an era when widespread incorporation of IOT devices is becoming more common throughout business; NAC is the fix. The general issue with bring your own device (BYOD), though, is what drew many businesses to this service.\r\n<h1 class=\"align-center\">How to Choose a Network Access Control Solution</h1>\r\nTo help narrow down your search for NAC products, you should first focus on tools that offer native integration with your enterprise’s existing software. You don’t want to have to change your infrastructure or network design in order to bring the NAC solution online. If you are heavily dependent on a cloud architecture, then look for solutions that are fully supported by your hosting provider.\r\nNext, think about what kind of proactive tools come included with the NAC suite. Some vendors offer all-in-one packages that feature a full virus scanning utility and firewall mechanism alongside everything else in the NAC. If your IT security strategy is not very mature, this kind of suite may be very helpful.\r\nOf course, one key factor when looking at NAC options is the price point. Some vendors will sell their products at a flat rate, while others are quickly going the route of Software as a Service (SaaS) subscription, an increasingly-popular business model that requires a monthly payment and ongoing contract. Think about the state of your IT budget while remembering that the upfront investment could save you lots of money down the road.","iconURL":"https://old.roi4cio.com/fileadmin/user_upload/NAC_-_Network_Access_Control__1_.png","alias":"nac-network-access-control"},"437":{"id":437,"title":"PSM - Privileged Session Management","description":" Session management is a comprehensive IT Security process to control, monitor and record administrative access to servers, databases, and network devices. Properly implemented RBAC controls should include lock down based on day, date, time and location. Monitoring and recording should be fine-grained enough to capture keystrokes, text/graphical screen output, and mouse movements.\r\nOrganizations use session management to improve oversight and accountability over privileged accounts and credentials. Privileged session management refers to the monitoring, recording, and control over privileged sessions. IT needs to be able to audit privileged activity for both securities and to meet regulations from SOX, HIPAA, ICS CERT, GLBA, PCI DSS, FDCC, FISMA and more. Auditing activities may also include capturing keystrokes and screens (allowing for live view and playback).\r\nWhile you can manually implement some processes – such as screen recording – integrated solutions allow you to accomplish it seamlessly and at the scale of hundreds or thousands of concurrent sessions. Moreover, some third-party solutions can provide automated workflows giving IT granular control over privileged sessions, such as allowing them to pinpoint an anomalous session, and terminate it, or alternatively pause/lock it until a determination is made that the activity is appropriate.","materialsDescription":" <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">What is Privileged Session Management?</span>\r\nPrivileged session management allows security administrators to monitor, control, and audit work sessions of privileged users.

It is an established solution that is being used in many applications including law enforcement, defense, and border control.\r\nBiometric identification system usually applies to a situation where an organization needs to identify a person. The organization captures a biometric from that individual and then searches a biometric id system repository in an attempt to correctly identify the person. The biometric repository could be managed by a law enforcement agency, such as the Integrated Automated Fingerprint System (IAFIS) run by the FBI in the USA, or be part of a national identity system like India’s UIDAI system.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Biometric authentication </span>asks the question “can you prove who you are” and is predominantly related to proof of identity in digital scenarios.

For effective collaboration, they often need access to devices and services but, do you have full control and visibility of what they’re doing? Like preventing them from sharing privileged credentials with others? Ensuring they have access just to the accounts they need – and no more? Deleting credentials when they leave? And if outsourcing IT, controlling what happens when your outsourcers outsource? All of these mean a mounting potential for major security breaches.\r\n\r\n<b>Admin accounts are impossible to manage effectively </b>\r\n\r\nYou may have hundreds or thousands of devices and administrator accounts with tens or hundreds of people that need access. Maintaining visibility and control rapidly becomes a real challenge. And it leads to bad security practices. Passwords written on post-it notes. Unapproved password sharing. Predictable passwords that are easy to hack. No audit trails of account access and activity. A security breach waiting to happen.\r\n\r\n<b>Too many people with too much access to too many admin accounts </b>\r\n\r\nYou wouldn’t think it safe to give a trainee pilot the controls of a jetliner. So why do so many organisations have inexperienced admins or junior help desk staff accessing complex, business-critical privileged accounts? Maybe there aren’t enough specialist skills in place. But giving access to staff who may be under-skilled, over-privileged and under-resourced leaves you wide open to both malicious attacks and inadvertent errors\r\n\r\n<p class=\"align-center\"><b>The Osirium PAM Solution </b></p>\r\n<b>Separate people from passwords </b>\r\n\r\nIf credential theft is at the centre of so many security breaches, then don’t expose credentials.

Once inside the repository, system administrators need to go through the privilege management system to access their credentials, at which point they are authenticated and their access is logged. When a credential is checked back in, it is reset to ensure administrators have to go through the PAM system next time they want to use the credential.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Privileged Access Management software by Gartner has the following subcategories:</span>\r\n<ol><li>Shared access password manager (SAPM)</li><li>Superuser password manager (SUPM)</li><li>Privileged session manager (PSM)</li><li>Application access password manager (AAPM)</li></ol>\r\nPAM password vaults (SAPM) provides an extra layer of control over admins and password policies, as well as monitoring trails of privileged access to critical systems. Passwords can follow a veriety of password policies and can even be disposable. Session brokers, or PSMs, take privileged access to another level, ensuring that administrators never see the passwords, their hardened proxy servers such as jump servers also monitor active sessions and enable reviewers to stop admin sessions if they see something wrong. Similarly, AAPMs can release credentials just-in-time for application-to-application communication, and even modify startup scripts to replace hard-coded passwords with API calls to the password vault.","materialsDescription":"<h1 class=\"align-center\">What are privileged accounts?</h1>\r\n<p class=\"align-left\">In a least privileged environment, most users are operating with non-privileged accounts 90-100% of the time. Non-privileged accounts, also called least privileged accounts (LUA) general consist of the following two types:</p>\r\n<p class=\"align-left\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Standard user accounts</span> have a limited set of privileges, such as for Internet browsing, accessing certain types of applications (e.g., MS Office, etc.), and for accessing a limited array of resources, which is often defined by role-based access policies.</p>\r\n<p class=\"align-left\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Guest user accounts </span>possess fewer privileges than standard user accounts, as they are usually restricted to just basic application access and Internet browsing.</p>\r\n<p class=\"align-left\">A privileged account is considered to be any account that provides access and privileges beyond those of non-privileged accounts. A privileged user is any user currently leveraging privileged access, such as through a privileged account.

IAM focuses on authenticating and authorizing all types of users for an organization, often including employees, vendors, contractors, partners, and even customers. IAM manages general access to applications and resources, including on-prem and cloud and usually integrates with directory systems such as Microsoft Active Directory.\r\nPAM access management focuses on privileged users, administrators or those with elevated privileges in the organization. PAM systems are specifically designed to manage and guarantee secure privileged access of these users to critical resources.\r\nOrganizations need both tools if they are to protect against attacks. IAM systems cover the larger attack surface of access from the many users across the organization’s ecosystem. PAM focuses on privileged users—but privileged access management products are important because while they cover a smaller attack surface, it’s a high-value surface and requires an additional set of controls normally not relevant or even appropriate for regular users (such as session recording).
