About Heimdal Privileged Access Management

A unified privileged access management platform that provides privilege elevation, session monitoring, and application control. It enables organizations to enforce least-privilege policies and secure administrative access across their IT ecosystem.

Heimdal Privileged Access Management is a cloud-native security solution designed to eliminate the complexity often associated with traditional PAM systems. It focuses on three core pillars: Privilege Elevation and Delegation Management (PEDM), Application Control, and Privileged Account and Session Management (PASM). By automating credential rotation and providing just-in-time access, the platform helps organizations enforce the principle of least privilege without creating bottlenecks for IT teams. The solution is built for compliance, offering built-in reporting for standards like NIST, NIS2, and ISO 27001. It integrates seamlessly into the broader Heimdal unified security platform, allowing for cross-module threat hunting and centralized endpoint management. While it is highly effective for enterprises and MSPs, organizations should note that pricing is customized based on volume and specific module requirements, necessitating a consultation with their sales team.
