BeyondTrust entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Entitle, a privilege management solution that discovers, manages and automates just-in-time access and modern identity governance and administration across an entire cloud estate.
These capabilities improve a customer’s ability to provision user access to sensitive data and cloud resources on a time-bounded and “as-needed” basis, the company said. Entitle provides automated provisioning workflows, self-serve access requests and over 150 integrations across IaaS/PaaS platforms and SaaS apps.
This acquisition includes all Entitle products, employees, customers, partners, assets and intellectual property.
“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,” said 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.”
BeyondTrust also strengthens its Privilege Identity Security platform with the acquisition of Entitle, expanding beyond traditional privileged access management to encompass dynamic, just-in-time access management across cloud, SaaS and on-premises environments. The addition of Entitle to its product portfolio helps to better address the challenges of PAM and cloud infrastructure entitlement management.
“Entitle’s JIT Access and Cloud Permissions Management solution is an emerging leader in the Identity Security market,” said 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.”
