The Benefits of VPAM – Unleash the Power

So now we know how  VPAM enables vendor identities to securely access an organization’s assets. We also learned that goal of VPAM is to enable vendor access in a reliable and safe manner without jeopardizing the perimeter of one’s own environment.

What are the key benefits or deliverables that managers can aim at when implementing VPAM in their organization? After all, there should be at least some level of cause-effect relationship. Hereunder are some key benefits that one can expect from successful execution of VPAM:

1. Enable Digital Business

Multi factor authentication ensures enhanced security while making the need to enter passwords each time redundant.  Biometric MFA also speeds up the process without compromising on security needs of the network.

2. Defend Against Attacks

Not all vendors need access to all enterprise assets and resources each time they get access. VPAM enables selective “need based” access to organistion’s resources. In case the security of a system does get compromised, the network admins can isolate the vendor sessions thereby minimizing the effects of breach.

3. Enhance Operational Efficiencies

VPAM solutions also enhance operational efficiencies.  streamlines the process of granting and managing access. The identities of vendors need not be added into the system directory. Vendors can indeed get just in time access to without having to add their identities.

4. Reduced cost:

Vendor privilege access management reduces the cost of providing and managing access to systems and data. It eliminates the need for manual processes, which can be costly and time-consuming.
