BeyondTrust Acquires Entitle to Enhance JIT Privilege Management

BeyondTrust has strategically acquired Entitle, a key player in privilege management renowned for its Just-in-Time (JIT) access and identity governance expertise. This move significantly bolsters BeyondTrust’s capabilities in securing cloud environments. Entitle’s prowess in effectively orchestrating JIT access and governance across diverse platforms, including on-premises, cloud, and SaaS, will broaden the horizons of privileged access management (PAM).

By integrating Entitle’s functionalities, BeyondTrust customers will now benefit from enhanced features such as timely access provision to critical resources, automated self-service requests, and seamless integrations with various cloud services. This consolidation marks an evolution in PAM, addressing the intricate demands of JIT strategies in hybrid and cloud-centric IT landscapes, thus ensuring comprehensive security for modern enterprise assets and data.

Strategic Expansion of BeyondTrust PAM

With the strategic purchase of Entitle, BeyondTrust expands its PAM portfolio and taps into Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM). Integrating Entitle’s technologies strengthens BeyondTrust’s identity governance capabilities. Both CEOs, BeyondTrust’s Janine Seebeck and Entitle’s Ron Nissim, anticipate that this transaction will significantly bolster IT security layers.

Industry experts, like KuppingerCole’s Paul Fisher, commend the acquisition for upgrading BeyondTrust’s Privileged Identity Security offerings. The integration caters to the increasing necessity for rigorous management of cloud permissions, seamlessly extending Entitle’s advanced features to BeyondTrust’s customers. This progress mirrors the industry trend of amalgamating security functions to adeptly address the complexities of a cloud-centric IT realm.
