Compare Admin By Request Endpoint Privilege Management vs. MetaDefender Kiosk

Admin By Request EPM is an endpoint privilege management solution for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It removes permanent local admin rights and grants elevation only when a task requires it, so a compromised account can't take over an entire system. Elevation applies to applications rather than user accounts, and privileges can be delegated by user or group to fit developers, general staff, and third-party contractors alike. Threat and behavioral analytics identify risky users, assets, and software, and every session is logged for auditing. The solution runs from a single portal, works online or offline, and requires no additional servers or databases.

The OPSWAT MetaDefender Kiosk Tower stands as our most expansive kiosk, designed to scan an extensive variety of media types. Featuring a robust metal casing and an industrial-grade touchscreen, the MetaDefender Kiosk Tower integrates OPSWAT’s reliable and award-winning technology that is recognized worldwide for preventing threats from removable and peripheral media in both IT and OT environments. Before any incoming removable media connects to your network, the MetaDefender Kiosk performs a thorough scan, detecting any harmful content and sanitizing it for safe use. Additionally, it offers real-time access to operational technology data while facilitating secure data transfers to OT environments, effectively shielding them from potential network-borne threats. Users can also benefit from the automatic transfer of large files, the implementation of data-at-rest encryption, and role-based access controls, all while ensuring adherence to regulatory compliance and maintaining detailed audit trails. Furthermore, it provides an extra layer of security by restricting access to USB devices and other media until all necessary security conditions are satisfactorily met. This comprehensive approach not only enhances security but also streamlines the workflow for users in sensitive environments.
