BeyondTrust Acquires Entitle, Strengthening Privileged Identity Security Platform with Paradigm Shifting Just-in-Time Access and Identity Governance
April 16 2024 - 10:33AM
BeyondTrust, the worldwide leader in intelligent identity and
access security, today announced a definitive agreement to acquire
Entitle, a pioneering privilege management solution that discovers,
manages, and automates just-in-time (JIT) access and modern
identity governance and administration (IGA) across the entire
cloud estate. These capabilities enhance a customer’s ability to
provision user access to sensitive data and cloud resources on a
time-bounded and “as-needed” basis. While regulations and industry
best practices are moving towards zero-standing privileges (vs.
permanent privileged access as provided by traditional PAM
offerings), companies have struggled to implement JIT with existing
tools, particularly in cloud and hybrid environments; Entitle
solves this issue with its automated provisioning workflows,
self-serve access requests, and 150+ integrations across IaaS/PaaS
platforms and SaaS apps.
This acquisition includes all Entitle products, employees,
customers, partners, assets, and intellectual property.
BeyondTrust further solidifies its industry-leading Privilege
Identity Security platform with the acquisition of Entitle,
expanding beyond traditional privileged access management (PAM) to
encompass dynamic, just-in-time access management across cloud,
SaaS, and on-premises environments. Adding Entitle to its product
portfolio enhances the capability to address the sophisticated
challenges of PAM and cloud infrastructure entitlement management
(CIEM) in today's cloud-centric landscape, with a unified
orchestration approach that enriches the platform with advanced
identity governance functionalities.
“The BeyondTrust acquisition of Entitle signifies a crucial
evolution in our fight to ensure customers can protect all paths to
privileges, focusing on identity-first security across all IT
environments,” says Janine Seebeck, CEO of BeyondTrust. “Adopting a
unified, orchestrated approach that incorporates dynamic,
just-in-time access is critical for safeguarding our customers'
ever-changing paths to privilege. This strategy not only reduces
operational friction but also enhances the security of the entire
identity infrastructure more effectively.”
"Entitle’s JIT Access and Cloud Permissions Management solution
is an emerging leader in the Identity Security market,” says Ron
Nissim, CEO of Entitle. “This acquisition allows Entitle to
continue to grow through BeyondTrust’s years of expertise and
dominance in the PAM market - offering significant
opportunities for Entitle’s team.”
“BeyondTrust’s acquisition of Entitle adds comprehensive
permissions and entitlements management across cloud and SaaS
platforms to the BeyondTrust Privileged Identity Security
platform,” states Paul Fisher, Senior Analyst at KuppingerCole
Analysts.
The Entitle solution is immediately available to all BeyondTrust
customers. For more information, visit
