7 Reasons Companies Choose Ekran System for Insider Threat Detection

What Is Ekran System and How It Protects Your Remote Workforce

What it is

Ekran System is an insider risk management platform that monitors, records, and audits user activity across Windows, macOS, Linux, and virtual environments (Citrix, RDP). It combines session recording, user behavior analytics (UEBA), privileged session management, and alerting to detect and investigate risky or noncompliant activity.

Core protection capabilities

• Session recording: Full video-like captures of local, remote and terminal sessions with indexed metadata (applications, URLs, clipboard, file operations, keystrokes for supported OS).
• Real‑time monitoring & live view: Security teams can watch active sessions and intervene immediately.
• Alerting & UEBA: Rules and anomaly detection trigger alerts for risky actions (data exfiltration, suspicious commands, unusual hours) with contextual evidence.
• Privileged access controls: Managed privileged sessions, two‑factor authentication, ticketing integration, and the ability to terminate or block sessions.
• Forensic search & audit trails: Search within recordings (window titles, URLs, clipboard text, commands) and generate compliance reports for investigations and audits.
• Data protection controls: USB/device monitoring and blocking, file transfer detection, and configurable filtering to limit captured scope.
• Encryption & storage controls: Client-to-server AES‑256 encryption and configurable retention/ bandwidth settings; supports on‑premises and SaaS deployments.

How this helps remote workforces

• Visibility anywhere: Monitors employees and third parties regardless of location or access method (VPN, RDP, cloud desks).
• Fast detection and response: Live alerts and session termination reduce time-to-contain for insider incidents.
• Compliance and evidence: Retained recordings and reports support regulatory audits (HIPAA, PCI DSS, SOX, ISO).
• Third‑party/vendor oversight: Controls and records vendor access to sensitive systems.
• Productivity insights: Usage dashboards help distinguish legitimate work from risky or nonproductive behavior.

Typical deployment notes

• Deploy lightweight agents to endpoints; integrates with Active Directory and SIEMs.
• Supports bandwidth throttling, selective capture (application/website filters), and group-based policies to reduce privacy/exposure.
• Flexible licensing and on‑premises or cloud options—choose based on data residency and compliance needs.

When organizations choose it

Ekran System is commonly used by mid-to-large enterprises, regulated industries (finance, healthcare, government), and organizations that need tight control over privileged users and remote/vendor access.
