Embassy
Embassy allows you to grant and control vendor remote access to your internal systems.
Embassy Teams
You can create an Embassy for each and every vendor relationship and control granularly what each vendor can or cannot access. Creating Embassy teams is a much more secure and manageable alternative to giving individual vendor representatives VPN access to your internal systems.
Secure Vendor Access
The Bomgar administrator can control the vendor's access
to the Embassy by adding vendor accounts manually. Then the admin can assign security parameters to the Embassy, defi ne which systems can be accessed through the Embassy, and manage vendor settings and permissions. Some of these parameters include:
- Whether file transfer is enabled - and if so, which directions
- Whether a vendor rep can share a session with your internal support staff
- Whether the vendor's access enables full remote control or view only
- Whether the vendor must request application-specific control from the end-user
A Complete Audit Trail
The Bomgar administrator can monitor and report on vendor activity within each Embassy historically or in real time.
- Video recordings of every remote support session enable the administrator to audit every click and keystroke of every vendor technician. Embassy logs:
- Which vendor rep accessed which remote system
- When the remote access took place and how long it lasted
- What happened during each session (fi les transferred, settings changed, screen sharing, command line sessions, chats with the user, etc.)
