The full press release and introductory video can be found below:

"HERNDON, VA – September 08, 2011 - Xceedium Inc., today announced general availability of Xceedium Xsuite™, a comprehensive Privileged Access Management (PAM) product that integrates two proven security solutions on a single hardened appliance, creating the most highly certified, enterprise-class PAM suite on the market.

Xceedium today also announced the acquisition of Cloakware Password Authority from Irdeto. Xsuite™ is the initial product being released as a result of the acquisition.

Xsuite™ integrates Xceedium’s award-winning GateKeeper™ access control and monitoring solution with Cloakware’s highly scalable password management software – eliminating risky shared administrative passwords. Xsuite™ extends Xceedium’s “zero trust” architecture with proven protection for privileged user passwords and application passwords that are often stored in clear text across many enterprises.

Xsuite™ protects organizations from the rising global threats that privileged insiders and trusted third parties pose to networks and data. Xsuite™ enables customers to control, contain and audit the activity of privileged users, including employees, partners and consultants—regardless of whether they originate from inside or outside of the network. Xsuite™’s zero trust architecture addresses the security and regulatory compliance needs of the largest and most discriminating global commercial, government and critical infrastructure customers.

“Managing privileged ‘insider’ access to critical network infrastructure and proprietary information is a huge challenge facing blue-chip corporations and government agencies today. As a result, we’re seeing increased demand for our award-winning solutions,” said Ken Ammon, Chief Strategy Officer, Xceedium. “Early Xsuite adopters in the commercial and government markets are pleased with the security, compliance and productivity enhancements that Xsuite will deliver.”

Xsuite™ includes three modules, GateKeeper™, Password Authority™ and A2A Authority™, that can be run on two different hardened appliance models based on customers’ performance, availability and cost requirements.

Xsuite’s Privileged Access Management features include:

• Fine-grained “white list” access control – governing which network devices administrators can access and what commands they are authorized to execute Personalized access portal – a secure portal providing each privileged user with “one-click” single-sign-on access to authorized resources while never exposing the password
• Password management – enforcing password policies and managing privileged passwords throughout their entire lifecycle
• Password protection – encrypting passwords at rest, in transit and in use – eliminating insecure solutions that store administrator passwords in clear text or password vaulting products that leave passwords exposed
• LeapFrog Prevention™ – patented containment technology for restricting users to authorized devices
• Complete logging, monitoring and alerting
• Session recording with DVR-like playback and session tags – supporting rapid review of policy violations
• Application-to-application (A2A) password protection – the most scalable application password protection enabling organizations to eliminate clear text passwords from scripts and code
• Multiple high availability modes
• Operates on a purpose built, hardened appliance – containing built in redundancy and tamper-proof hardware mechanisms

No other vendor provides these integrated and highly certified capabilities on a single, scalable, hardened appliance."
