Novell Privileged User Manager

Reduce Management Overhead and Infrastructure Costs

Novell Privileged User Manager delivers a robust and scalable architecture, intuitive management console and reusable script and command libraries that enables administrators to reduce management overhead and infrastructure costs in your environment.

With Novell Privileged User Manager, you can centrally manage security policies from a single point. The intuitive drag-and-drop visual interface makes it easy for administrators to create rules, instead of relying on complex, time-consuming manual scripting.

Once rules are created, they are enforced across all managed UNIX and Linux systems. When rules are updated or changed, that change is immediately applicable across the entire set of hosts in the enterprise. Unlike other Super User Privilege Management products that require systems to be updated individually, Novell Privilege User Manager frees administrators to focus on protecting the infrastructure, not installing rule updates.

The Compliance Auditor component of Novell Privileged User Manager provides an system-wide view of user activity and system events. Rather than wading through thousands of individual log files, reviewers and auditors see all event records in an easy-to-read graphical format. This enables them to prioritize responses and, if necessary, act immediately on any anomalous activity. Providing system details in this powerful reporting and management tool not only saves countless hours and cuts administration costs, but it also ensures that organizations can maintain a continuous audit record and avoid costly security breaches.
