One privileged access gateway platform
Wardengate is not a point tool — it is the control plane for how humans, vendors, and workloads reach production. Brokering, recording, MFA, and audit evidence share one policy engine.
Access Gateway
Single choke point
Adaptive MFA
Step-up at connect
Recording
Screen + keystrokes
Audit & Evidence
Signed export bundles
Sessions enter once. Every layer enforces together.

Platform modules
Four capabilities, one policy engine
Access Gateway
Broker SSH, RDP, databases, and Kubernetes through one identity-bound control plane.
Session Recording
Keystroke, screen, and file capture at the gateway — bound to named identities.
Adaptive MFA
Step-up verification on every privileged path, including legacy protocols.
Audit & Evidence
Signed export bundles mapped to SOC 2, PCI, HIPAA, and ISO frameworks.
Why teams choose the platform model
Gateway-first enforcement
Every privileged path terminates at Wardengate. Policy, MFA, and recording happen at the choke point — not on targets operators control.
Identity-bound by default
Entitlements follow people and workloads from your IdP. No shared accounts, no orphan keys, no standing vendor tunnels.
Evidence auditors recognize
Structured exports feed GRC tools and SIEMs. Reviewers get playback and metadata in one pass — not a folder of correlated syslog.
Your infrastructure, your data
Run the control plane on-prem or in your cloud. Open-source tier available. No mandatory SaaS lock-in.

What is a privileged access gateway?
Session brokers sit between identities and targets — enforcing policy, injecting credentials, and recording activity. They are the modern replacement for bastion fleets and vault checkout workflows.
