Using Bomgar to Support Your IT Infrastructure
Challenges of Remote IT Support
Just like end-users and customers, your IT infrastructure requires constant support. However, unlike your user base, your back-office IT systems, applications, and equipment don't just work from 9 to 5. Whether you are supporting Linux web servers, Windows application servers, Unix mainframes, or Cisco networking hardware, you know that uptime is measured in months, but downtime is measured in dollars.

Bomgar offers a solution for supporting your IT infrastructure remotely that combines the on-premise, unattended access model of legacy remote control tools with the web-enabled architecture of end-user remote support solutions. Bomgar's secure appliance is installed in your DMZ and integrated into your environment, enabling you to control access through your user directory and audit every remote access session.

Centralized Security Fortune 500 organizations like Humana in healthcare and Fiserv in financial services use Bomgar to support their IT infrastructure. Bomgar enables granular control over technician permissions through individual or group policies integrated with your own internal directory using LDAP, RADIUS, Kerberos, or other security providers. Beyond controlling access, Bomgar gives you the capability to record every session in video format so that you can audit every click and keystroke of every session, ensuring the integrity of system data. Bomgar even enables you to create separate groups for vendor access (called Embassy), ensuring that both internal and external system access is centrally controlled and auditable. |

Concurrent Licensing Bomgar's concurrent licensing model means that you only pay for the licenses that you will use at the same time. Even with thousands of systems and hundreds of reps, you only pay for logged-in technicians. |
