Enterprises often deal with third party consultants or vendors on a day to day basis for various projects. Vendors' or consultants' assignments are typically either temporary or contractual in nature. During the time period when vendors are active, they have access to corporate networks or select business applications. Enterprises hardly have any control over vendor endpoints, causing serious concerns for enterprises. A single malware sitting in any unmanaged vendor endpoint may potentially affect the entire corporate network and devices connected to it. Vendor devices with access to critical business apps and data make organizations vulnerable to data breaches or cyber threats. Moreover, corporates do not have complete control over the type of devices, software or applications used by any of their third-party vendors while accessing the corporate network. With Accops solution, enterprises can govern the business data and restrict access to managed devices only. Using Accops' secure and compliant solution, enterprises can enable instant vendor access without having to worry about data protection.
