What BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access is
BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access is paid software for controlled access to technical resources and systems. It lets users connect to critical IT systems, cloud applications, and OT systems without a VPN. Administrators can choose which endpoints are available and during what times, control applications in sessions, and capture session data for later review. Privileged credentials can be stored, rotated, and injected without showing users plaintext passwords. Authentication options include MFA, passwordless authentication, and SAML. Session control and monitoring cover RDP, VNC, HTTPS, SSH, and SQL connections. File transfer, session recording, and mobile apps are supported. Documented integrations include ServiceNow, Splunk, Entra ID, PingOne, and Password Safe, with ServiceNow records able to launch sessions. Deployment is available through BeyondTrust Cloud or a virtual appliance. The console comes as a desktop application, browser version, and mobile app. Pricing is on request; no free plan is listed, but a free trial is available.
