According to a 2024 Ponemon Institute research report, organizations authorize an average of 77 different third-party vendors to access their OT environment. A quarter allow such access for more than 100 vendors.
Working with third-party vendors and giving them access to internal systems are not inherently bad practices. What is dangerous is allowing third parties to move freely through networks without access or oversight controls.
Provide third-party users with access to only the assets they need — and nothing more.
Our software is compatible with your existing tech stack, allowing for easy implementation. No firewall changes, routing changes, GRE, or IPsec tunnels are required to deploy Cyolo. Support non-corporate managed devices with agentless secure access and device posturing for BYOD. Third parties can access apps via web browser or native clients.
Admins can instantly approve and revoke access for any third party, as well as supervise and audit all activity via real-time monitoring and session recording.
Our identity-based access architecture delivers full user visibility. Authenticate every identity — even for generic usernames and passwords — and run continuous authorization.
Our technology provides end-to-end encryption, and no client assets are visible or stored by Cyolo. Ever. All sensitive data remains secure within your own environment. Other remote access or even zero-trust access solutions can’t say the same.
"Cyolo allows us to limit access to both internal and third-party users through the policies and connections within the platform itself. So we're able to very easily restrict users or groups of users to the specific systems, ports, and protocols that they need to access without having to set up a bunch of complex firewall rules or routes or application filters."
