Compare 12Port vs. Securden Endpoint Privilege Manager

12Port is an agentless privileged access management platform that centralizes access control, credential security, session monitoring, and account management for privileged identities. Users, vendors, scripts, and AI agents authenticate through 12Port, which retrieves credentials from its vault and injects them into sessions without revealing the underlying secret. The platform supports brokered access over SSH, RDP, PowerShell, VNC, Telnet, HTTP, and other administrative protocols. Just-in-time elevation and approval workflows help organizations reduce standing privilege and limit access to the systems and time periods required for each task. Its credential vault can store privileged passwords, service accounts, API keys, certificates, SSH credentials, and database secrets while supporting automated rotation and reconciliation. Session Intelligence records privileged activity through video, transcripts, and events while providing real-time monitoring, behavioral analytics, anomaly detection, and the ability to terminate active sessions. AccessWall adds enforcement by blocking direct SSH and RDP connections to protected hosts so users must enter through approved PAM workflows. An integrated MCP server allows AI agents to obtain scoped privileged access while remaining subject to centralized controls and audit trails. 12Port is intended for businesses, regulated organizations, MSPs, security teams, and infrastructure operators that need privileged access management without deploying agents across every endpoint.

Securden Endpoint Privilege Manager (EPM) enables enterprises to remove admin rights without impacting productivity on Windows, Mac, and Linux endpoints. Securden EPM helps elevate applications for standard users and grant admin rights on a Just-in-Time (JIT) basis, eliminating standing privileges while ensuring users can run required applications without friction. Organizations can enforce application control using allowlisting and blocklisting to prevent unauthorized or risky software execution while enabling secure operations. The solution supports on-demand application elevation and policy-based granular application elevation control, allowing security teams to define exactly which apps can run with elevated rights and under what conditions. Privilege management continues even on offline endpoints, ensuring protection for remote and traveling users. Built-in JIT local admin rights reduce risk by granting temporary elevation only when required. Additional capabilities include application usage tracking for better policy decisions, continuous local administrator group monitoring to prevent privilege creep, and secure remote access for IT helpdesk teams to troubleshoot systems without exposing credentials. Securden EPM also helps organizations meet compliance requirements such as HIPAA, PCI-DSS, GDPR, and NERC-CIP. With a highly scalable architecture and a wide array of integrations, the platform delivers enterprise-grade endpoint privilege management while maintaining operational efficiency and user productivity.
