Based on a Zero Trust model, Remediant ensures privileged access is precisely allocated and continuously inventoried by granting privileged access on a Just-Enough, Just-in-Time basis using two-factor authentication. Our first product, Remediant SecureONE, was purpose-built to address this problem and be a force multiplier to cybersecurity programs worldwide. The founding team especially had in mind those looking to secure and enable access to global, distributed and always scaling infrastructure.
While the threat landscape continues to evolve significantly, the provider landscape has not. Remediant was created by Tim Keeler and Paul Lanzi in response to changing cybersecurity needs. SecureONE was developed because available security solutions offered insufficient protection against the increasing threat of state-sponsored attacks and ransomware. Because most data breaches involve a compromised privilege account at some point in the attack chain, Remediant understands the crucial role privilege access plays in cybersecurity.
Since 1996, every privileged access management solution on the market has been built on top of the concept of a password vault. SecureONE is the first Precision PAM solution to bring the ease of an agentless and vaultless approach, while also delivering continuous detection of new privileged access across the enterprise.
Co-founders Paul Lanzi and Tim Keeler discuss the history behind Remediant's beginnings with David Spark, producer and co-host of the CISO/Security Vendor Relationship Series and owner of Spark Media Solutions.
