Early threat detection and diverse OS support with enhanced security

Ekran System offers a lightweight solution that does not impact the systems where it is implemented. It provides rich metadata for monitored activities and includes threat analysis capabilities for early alerting and investigation of unauthorized actions. Additionally, it supports diverse operating systems and allows for monitoring and enforcement policies, like blocking actions for policy violations, and provides a retention of historical data in a lightweight format.

Password management secures sessions but auditing features need enhancement

The most valuable feature of WALLIX Bastion is its password management capability, which is central to safeguarding sensitive information. The password rotation feature changes passwords after eight sessions, thus protecting both our sessions and assets. Additionally, the workflow feature is unique to WALLIX solutions, enhancing our access security. It is the only solution we found with this feature, making it a distinct choice for our needs.

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It supports diverse operating systems and allows for monitoring and enforcement policies, like blocking actions for policy violations, and provides a retention of historical data in a lightweight format."

"I like that it's Linux-based, and you don't need to have separate implementations, extra database licenses, or enterprise licenses. I think because it's Linux-based, it's more seamless than Windows. I also like the access manager, which I think is a super tool. Everything is browser-based, and you don't need a VPN. So, that's a great thing."

"The setup process was simple, and the solution can be implemented within less than one day."

"WALLIX Bastion's most valuable feature is the Access Manager because you can use it and access the data center without any client VPN."

"Bastion provides a kind of isolation between the administration laptop and the server you want to administer."

"The interface is very simple. It doesn't need any plug-ins, just browsers that are installed at the beginning."

"Bastion provides a kind of isolation between the administration laptop and the server you want to administer."

"The support is great. They offer 24/7 support, but the specific level of support depends on your subscription. There's a weekday-only option, and a 24/7 option that covers all days of the week. They also have offices in different regions, including West Africa, so people there can easily get support. There's no need to worry about getting assistance."

"WALLIX Bastion is a security tool that protects us, and I think we are protected with this tool."

Cons

"Ekran System could improve in terms of communication to the market, particularly after their rebranding as Shiteka."

"There should be more effort to increase the level of security."

"Reporting requires improvement; it is basic, allowing only CSV file extraction with no analytics features."

"The main problem of Bastion, CyberArk, and WALLIX is that they have the same interface for both administration and users, which is not a good idea from a security perspective."

"The product doesn't have behavior analytics. They promised to develop this, but only for the cloud, not for on-premise versions."

"The performance of WALLIX Bastion's password manager is very low."

"The scalability of WALLIX Bastion is rated seven out of ten. While it meets our current needs, scaling up the solution is not as easy, and improvements could be made in this area."

"WALLIX Bastion is GUI-driven, but it sometimes needs some management."

"I do not find WALLIX Bastion easy to use and ergonomic."
