Enable your security officers to track employees’ actions in real time and record user sessions for post-analysis. Recordings contain screenshots of user activity and extensive metadata, including visited URLs, launched applications, and typed keystrokes.
Securely authenticate users to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data. Employ Syteca’s two-factor authentication (2FA) and secondary authentication capabilities to verify user identities and distinguish users of shared accounts.
Granularly control access to critical endpoints for your privileged and regular users. Configure an access and approval workflow, set time-based access restrictions, and provide one-time passwords for external users.
Manage risks from users outside your network. Provide your partners, vendors, and third-party service providers with securely limited access to sensitive assets and monitor the activity of remote users in your IT infrastructure.
Leverage Syteca’s predefined and custom security alerts to promptly notify your security officers of suspicious user activity. Respond to threats manually or configure real-time automatic responses to certain user actions.
Generate detailed reports on user activity to analyze your internal threat landscape and support your organization’s security audits. Provide forensic investigators with cybersecurity evidence by exporting user session recordings in a tamper-proof format.
Pseudonymize the recorded personally identifiable information of your employees and third parties to meet the requirements of data privacy regulations. You can later de-anonymize data for incident investigation.
