As the number of linux systems proliferate within Irish IT departments, Securelinx is regularly asked for advice on enterprise class management tools that specifically support Linux/Unix administration. Securelinx recommends a number of best in class vendor products for areas such as Patch Management and Monitoring, and now with the availability of Novell’s Privileged User Manager, a further aspect of system management overhead has been professionally addressed.

Novell’s Privileged User Manager helps IT managers manage the access and identity of superuser and root accounts by providing controlled superuser access to administrators, thus allowing them to perform jobs without needlessly exposing root account credentials. It also provides a centralised activity log across multiple platforms supporting both good security practice and strict compliance requirements. Furthermore as this solution integrates with all Unix and Linux environments, it provides a single centralised management capability across mixed environments.
