The Spring ‘22 release of Plurilock DEFEND has the following features and enhancements:
DEFEND Application Identity Provider Support
As part of the Plurilock Spring ’22 release, administrations can link the DEFEND administrative application suite to industry-standard identity providers such as Active Directory (AD), enabling enterprises to manage administrator access and permissions in DEFEND from their existing
identity platforms for more secure management and better compliance.
Conditional DEFEND Enforcement Based on VPN Status
The new release also now provides the ability to include virtual private network (VPN) status in policy decisions, enabling administrations to condition DEFEND enforcement on VPN use. This provides flexibility for the mixed-use endpoints proliferating with the growing shift
to remote work environments, and for organizations using bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policies for employees.
Enhancements to DEFEND Engine Training Tools
This enables more effective and granular auto-training of groups of users, streamlining DEFEND deployment and operation and enhancing the accuracy of DEFEND alerts, particularly when operating with large numbers of users.
General Availability for DEFEND Policy Alerting
The general availability of DEFEND’s behavioral biometric policy and alerting platform will enable system administrators to further define risk events of concern and the customized alerts and enforcement actions to take when these events occur.
This provides increased clarity, ease of use, and automation for enterprise clients and security operations center (SOC) teams that routinely need to manage security risk in complex environments.
Plurilock added that the DEFEND’s alerts platform, now in general availability, gathers administrator-defined risk events defined and provides an account of actions taken as a result
The Spring ‘22 release of Plurilock ADAPT has the following features and enhancements:
General Availability for ADAPT Administration via Browser
Enhanced browser-based access to ADAPT administration is now generally available to ADAPT customers. ADAPT administrators have access to detailed authentication logs, including biometric and contextual evaluations, as well as user and enrollment statuses and management and other key administrative workflows.
Impact and Availability
This latest product release focuses on key insider threat capabilities, BYOD features for mixed use endpoints, enhanced policy alerts, administrative console changes, and other features that enable efficient enterprise deployment and operation.
To expand on the new product release, Plurilock is hosting a Spring 2022 Plurilock DEFEND live demo event on March 1 from 2-3 pm, Eastern Time, with Plurilock’s director of channel sales, Paul Baker, and vice president of product, Dr. Aron Hsiao.
