Terilogy and Delinea Join Forces in a Strategic Partnership
In a significant move to enhance cybersecurity offerings in Japan, Terilogy Corporation, headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has officially signed a distribution agreement with Delinea Inc., a global leader in privileged access management (PAM) based in San Francisco, California. This partnership marks the beginning of providing Delinea's cutting-edge security solutions to mid-sized and large enterprises in Japan.
The Cybersecurity Landscape
The urgency for improved cybersecurity measures is growing as organizations increasingly adopt cloud services, remote working options, and artificial intelligence technologies. Traditional perimeter security models are becoming obsolete, giving way to an era defined by Zero Trust principles, where identity itself serves as the new security boundary. Within this landscape, privileged identities are prime targets for cyberattacks, with reports indicating that over 90% of attacks exploit these accounts. Despite this alarming trend, many organizations still rely on outdated methods like spreadsheets for password management, creating vulnerabilities and expanding the potential for insider threats.
Historically, organizations have faced challenges in adopting enterprise-grade PAM solutions, primarily due to high costs and a lack of specialized expertise. However, the partnership between Terilogy and Delinea aims to bridge this gap by leveraging Terilogy's market insight and experience to offer effective PAM services tailored for the Japanese market.
About Delinea
Delinea stands out as a key player in the PAM sector, recognized for its comprehensive identity security solutions that protect the identities of people, machines, and AI. The company has been named a leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Privileged Access Management for seven consecutive years, underlining its commitment to providing seamless security without sacrificing user convenience or productivity. Delinea’s solutions feature cloud-native designs and intuitive user interfaces, making it easier for organizations to deploy PAM practices effectively. Key features include Just-In-Time (JIT) authorization, which evaluates risk at the time of access, and Iris Auditing, which uses AI to detect suspicious activities.
Notably, Delinea caters to not only human users but also non-human identities (NHI) including machines used in CI/CD environments and AI agents, addressing security across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
Strengthening the Partnership
Scott Goree, Senior Vice President of Channel Alliances at Delinea, emphasizes the importance of this partnership with Terilogy, stating that AI agents introduce new identities that necessitate a reevaluation of privileged access management strategies. He notes that combining Terilogy's rich market knowledge with Delinea's identity security platform will facilitate the implementation of continuous authorization strategies that minimize risks associated with always-on privileges.
Delinea's Platform Features
The Delinea platform incorporates robust product features and modules designed to meet organizations' diverse access requirements:
1. Privileged Account and Session Management (Secret Server)
This feature secures privileged passwords and sensitive information within a highly encrypted digital vault, automating password rotation while ensuring all actions are recorded via video and keystroke audits.
2. Endpoint Privilege and Application Control (Privilege Manager)
This functionality enhances security by removing local administrative rights from users on endpoints, approving permission elevations only for authorized applications, thus preventing ransomware and other malware from spreading.
3. Intelligent Automation and Auditing Using AI (Delinea Iris AI)
Without needing VPNs or dedicated client software, Delinea offers secure system access for external contractors and remote workers using just standard web browsers.
4. Simple, Low-Impact Architecture and Secure Scalability
With an intuitive user interface and cloud-optimized design, Delinea significantly reduces the operational burdens historically associated with PAM implementations and enables resource management reductions of up to 90%. Organizations can also expand their infrastructures easily, linking cloud and on-premise systems without complex changes to existing network security configurations.
Conclusion
With this partnership, Terilogy is capitalizing on its extensive experience in the cybersecurity landscape to more effectively introduce Delinea's advanced PAM solutions to the Japanese market. By doing so, they aim to help organizations protect a wide array of identities, from human personnel to machines and AI, fostering a more secure digital environment across industries.
