  Why Werbot?

Problem

• Unsafely kept server access, passwords, and keys
• Difficult server access management
• Uncontrolled work on servers
• Unwanted connections on servers
• Expensive and limited in functionality server monitoring tools

Solution

Werbot users connect to all accessible servers with a single sign-on using their login and private key. All work performed on servers connected to Werbot is logged and recorded as a screencast.

Competition

Identity and Access Management solutions existing today can have limited functionalities or work with only one server provider, and support few protocols.

There are also complex Enterprise solutions that are quite expensive solutions and not suitable for everyone.

  Why did we build Werbot?

The prototype of Werbot was developed for internal use firstly. Over time, the prototype was refined and developed into a full-fledged platform available to everyone.

SaaS version is currently working on the site werbot.com. There we are offering a ready-made solution that is suitable for most companies and does not need to be configured by a specialist, so it can be used even without the involvement of cybersecurity specialists.

Werbot covers 3 of the most important cybersecurity challenges:

• Helps to manage server access
• Helps to control users’ activity on servers
• Gathers evidence to show security certification compliances

Recently we decided to rewrite the code of the SaaS version and make it open source. We are currently working on this.

  Features

• Werbot works with dedicated, VPS, and cloud servers
• Manages servers from different providers in one account
• Doesn’t require any additional agent to be installed on the server
