Securely Manage the Elevation of Common System Tasks in Windows
The release of PowerBroker for Windows Desktops Free Edition reduces the costs associated with helpdesk enquiries for mundane IT tasks, while strengthening desktop security, without the need to purchase any software.
The free edition will enable network administrators to secure their Microsoft Windows desktops by running employees as standard users, while allowing elevated administrative privileges over a limited set of the most common system tasks without error messages or User Account Control (UAC) prompts.
BeyondTrust’s award-winning PowerBroker for Windows Desktops (formerly Privilege Manager) software is implemented as a Group Policy extension. Organisations simply specify the privileges necessary for an application. These privileges will be added to the application process when it is launched enabling end-users without administrative privileges to run all authorized applications.
