NEW-YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

WALLIX Group, cybersecurity and privileged access management (PAM) software company, announces a partnership with Axiad IDS to respond to increasing cybersecurity challenges. The WALLIX Bastion PAM solution, combined with Axiad IDS’ Trusted Identity and Access Platform offers a holistic approach to IT access security.

WALLIX and Axiad IDS Address Urgent Cybersecurity Challenges

As global business becomes increasingly digitized, organizational cybersecurity becomes a greater and more critical challenge. It is crucial to control privileged access to critical data and systems in order to ensure compliance and security, and to prevent data breaches which can paralyze an organization.

WALLIX’s PAM solution ensures that only authorized users have access to sensitive accounts, applications, and devices while simultaneously monitoring and managing their permissions and actions. Axiad’s platform verifies the identity of these authorized users, and ensures they can be trusted through authentication with a mix of credentials and identity proofing.

Together, Axiad IDS’ Trusted Identity and Access Platform and WALLIX’s PAM solution complement each other to provide a holistic approach to security through an integrated solution:

WALLIX and Axiad IDS holistic solution for privileged users:

• Session recording and audit to optimize the risk management process with an all-in-one solution to identity management — addressing all points of vulnerability — from managing actions of an IT administrator to ensuring that the administrator and other privileged users are authenticated.
• Increased regulatory compliance by covering a wider range of controls set by some of the most rigorous and complex regulations (NIST SP 800-171, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOX, GDPR, etc.).

“This partnership with Axiad IDS represents a powerful opportunity for WALLIX to significantly expand our presence in North America. We’re excited to combine energies serving a broader range of customers with an all-in-one solution,” said Didier Lesteven, COO of WALLIX.

“Customers no longer have to choose between security, ease-of-use and ease of management. Our platform simply integrates the right mix of proven technologies to address any organization’s unique security requirements in a frictionless experience,” said Yves Audebert, Chairman, President, Co-CEO and Founder, Axiad IDS. “We are excited to be partnering with WALLIX to bring an integrated solution for privileged users to our customers.”
