The vendor is launching its new product - WAB On Demand (WOD) - to help service providers dealing with sensitive data to deliver improved access control and auditing to their customers. Based on a multi-tenancy, pay per user model, WOD requires no prior investment and no fixed costs, says WALLIX.

The new product "meets the higher levels of security and compliance demanded by businesses who are migrating their IT to the cloud," adds the vendor. "Despite widespread adoption of cloud services, the perception that it carries risk remains high among security professionals, with one of the most significant barriers to cloud implementation being the increased compliance and regulatory challenges that organisations face when choosing to move to cloud services or hosted solutions."

Built on existing Wallix AdminBastion (WAB) technology, WAB On Demand (WOD) is said to help cloud and managed service providers to address these concerns with a product dedicated to the auditing and control of privileged access.

Chris Pace, WALLIX head Of product marketing in the UK, comments: "Being able to manage and audit privileged user access to hosted systems means that cloud service providers can assure their customers that only the right users have the right access, all while meeting their contractual requirements and keeping customer environments effectively segmented.”
