Netwrix empowers information security and governance professionals to identify and protect sensitive data to reduce the risk of a breach. Our solutions also limit the impact of attacks by helping IT teams detect, respond and recover from them faster and with less effort. Over 13,000 organizations worldwide rely on Netwrix solutions to strengthen their security and compliance posture across all three primary attack vectors: data, identity and infrastructure.

Is your legacy tool for endpoint privilege management EOL'ing soon? Are you looking for a cost-effective replacement that provides feature parity and maintains the security and compliance you've already implemented? Perhaps you're new to endpoint privilege management and seeking out a solution to your "local admin problem" once and for all. If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, you won't want to miss this webinar and product demonstration!
 
Privileged accounts with local or domain admin rights pose substantial security and compliance risk to your organisation's underlying information systems. These accounts in the hands of malicious actors can cause significant operational damage, including data theft, espionage, sabotage, ransom, or bypassing critical safety controls. Implementing the principle of least privilege across endpoints can mitigate these risks while optimizing operational efficiency.
 
Attend this webinar to see how Netwrix SbPAM and Netwrix PolicyPak Least Privilege Manager enable admins and standard users to complete privileged tasks securely. You'll also see how easy, fast, and cost-effective it is to transition away from legacy tools for endpoint privilege management that may soon reach its end of life!
 
During the webinar, you will learn how Netwrix SbPAM and Netwrix PolicyPak can help you:
·   Enforce least privilege functionality across Windows and Mac endpoints.
·   Prevent malware, ransomware, lateral movement, and unauthorised system changes.
·   Simplify how domain admins complete privileged tasks, which improves response times and mean time to resolution (MTTR).
·   Optimize performance and productivity without sacrificing security or compliance.
·   Replace legacy PAM tools without the headache

PAM Parity: Replacing Your Legacy Endpoint Privilege Management Solution Quickly

Business and technical end-users often require local admin rights to perform tasks or access applications. Adding standard users to the local administrator group may provide workers the permissions they need but creates significant security risk and may violate regulatory compliance. Microsoft’s Local Administrator Password Solution (LAPS) also creates risk, as bad actors can easily exploit temporary privileged access. Without the right balance of privilege and productivity, organizations are forced to sacrifice security for operational efficiency.

Fortunately, advanced endpoint privilege management technology provides organizations with the tools they need to securely elevate local admin rights on an as-needed basis. With advanced endpoint privilege management, domain administrators can elevate local admin rights for only the applications and processes end-users need. By elevating admin rights for specific applications and tasks, organizations can sustain organizational productivity without the risk of over-privileged users. Join Jeremy Moskowitz, 17X Microsoft MVP, for a demonstration of how this technology works and can be used to address common endpoint security and productivity challenges.

During this webinar you will learn how advanced endpoint privilege management technologies:
- Elevate admin rights for specific applications and processes across domain-joined, non-domain joined, MDM enrolled, and virtual environments
- Overcome the security risks associated with LAPS and local administrator groups
- Enable end-users to request elevated permissions on an as-needed basis
- Manage read, write and execute permissions for USB sticks and external storage drives.

Privilege vs Productivity: How to Elevate Local Admin Rights Securely

The crux of every cyberattack’s success or failure today is privileges – without them, the threat actor has no ability to execute anything, move laterally, infect endpoints, access data, or basically do anything remotely malicious.  While most of the time we all focus on administrative privileges to an endpoint, a server, or Active Directory, it’s critical to implement a state of least privilege – all the way down to you operating system and its applications.
 
Woe is the admin who hands out “local administrator rights” for any period of time, only to find out that the end user has done unmentionable things to the machine, reduced security or let the bad guys in.
At the same time, we all also know that the organisation expects users to be productive and able to complete their job. So, there needs to be a happy medium – one where the cybersecurity objectives of the organisation are definitely met, while users can still get work done.
 
So, what should a least privilege management framework look like that meets both goals?
 
In this Real Training for Free webinar, 4-time Microsoft MVP, Nick Cavalancia, again takes my seat and first covers:
 
· Defining Least Privilege – going deeper than just “Admin”
· How cyberattacks have taken advantage of privileges – from admin to application
· How MITRE spells out some of the privilege types you should be including
 
Next up, Nick will be joined by 18-time Microsoft Windows Management MVP, Jeremy Moskowitz who will discuss:
 
· Ways attackers take advantage of application and operating system privileges
· How implementing a least privilege framework can help prevent ransomware/malware, zero day attacks, phishing-based attacks
· Pros and cons of native management tools like LAPS, Applocker, LUAbuglight and Procmon
· Practical OS and applications examples where least privilege can make endpoints more secure using the context of Group Policy and Microsoft Endpoint Manager

Having a layered defense is of paramount importance because if one level of mitigation fails, another one takes over. The more layers of security present, the more resilience you have against multiple failures in strategy. Mitigations you can try and cut down on lateral movement include aggressive auditing, network segmentation, firewall rules, GPOs/Intune, PAM, user access control, and more.

It’s no secret that cyberattacks need a foothold within your organization. And given Microsoft holds that an attacker sits undetected on your network for a median of 146 days, there has to be a reason beyond “they just such an amazing hacker.” In reality, there are plenty of ways your Windows desktops actually **help** the bad guy continue their malicious activities that result in stolen data, encrypted systems, and compromised environments. 

So, how are threat actors taking advantage of your Windows desktops, and what should you do to stop them?
