Stronger Security Starts with Zero Trust

Zero Trust Access Management

CyberQP makes Zero Trust simple and effective. Our platform verifies every access request and enforces least privilege access, so users only get what they need, when they need it, nothing more.

With built-in tools like QGuard for secure, time-limited technician access and QDesk for smart end-user privilege management, CyberQP helps you reduce risk, stop ransomware, and block credential-based attacks before they start.

Where Access Is Granted, Security Must Be Enforced.

Healthcare breaches don’t start with networks, they start with identity. In hospitals and healthcare environments, every login, password reset, and privilege elevation can put ePHI at risk. This eBook explores how identity-first access controls help IT teams enforce least privilege, verify users at the point of access, and maintain audit-ready compliance with HIPAA requirements.

How Privileged Access and Identity Controls Map to HIPAA Requirements

HIPAA compliance isn’t just about implementing security controls, it’s about clearly demonstrating how access to ePHI is governed, verified, and audited. This resource maps HIPAA Security Rule requirements directly to CyberQP capabilities and shows exactly how controls are enforced across healthcare environments.

Instead of relying on assumptions or fragmented documentation, you gain clear, audit-ready visibility into which HIPAA controls CyberQP supports. The result is faster audits and greater confidence when protecting patient data.

How CyberQP Enforces and Audits Privileged Access

Privileged Account Just-in-Time (JIT) Access

Control area: §164.312(b) Audit Controls

CyberQP’s JIT access enforces temporary, context-based privilege elevation so users and technicians don’t retain standing administrative rights. All JIT sessions are logged and auditable, helping satisfy audit control requirements around monitoring and examining system activity.

Just in time access

Passwordless MFA for Technicians

Control area: §164.308(a)(5)(ii)(C) Log-in Monitoring, §164.312(a)(2)(iii) Automatic Logoff

CyberQP enables passwordless authentication and session tracking for technicians and privileged users. This improves log-in monitoring and auditing, while automatic session termination and authentication events align with controls around termination of inactive sessions.

Activate JIT

Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR)

Control area: §164.308(a)(5)(ii)(D) Password Management

CyberQP’s self-service password reset workflows are tied to identity assurance, reducing helpdesk risk, and enabling compliant password lifecycle processes.

    Real Zero Trust Starts with Identity

    Zero Trust can’t succeed without strong identity controls at the point where access is granted. In this eBook, you’ll learn why identity has become the primary attack surface, and how enforcing verification combined with least privilege at the endpoint changes the security equation. Explore a practical, identity-first approach to Zero Trust that helps IT teams reduce risk.
    MSP Incident Insights

    A Secured End-User Elevation Workflow

    A secure end-user elevation workflow treats privilege as a controlled, identity-verified process, not a standing entitlement. Every elevation request begins with identity confirmation, ensuring the person requesting access is who they claim to be before any privilege is granted. Access is scoped to a single task or time sensitive process, and is automatically revoked when the job is complete. Eliminating persistent admin rights on the endpoint.

    Each action is logged and tied back to a verified identity, creating a complete audit trail for compliance investigations and insurance reviews. By enforcing least privilege at the moment access is needed, you can reduce lateral movement risk while maintaining technician efficiency.

    The Security Gap Most Organizations Haven’t Closed

    Unmanaged Systems Are the Easiest Way In

    Attackers target what organizations can’t see or control. Unmanaged endpoints and accounts create blind spots that bypass security policies entirely. This makes identity-based attacks faster, quieter, and more effective.

    Your Security Maturity Isn’t Where It Should Be

    Most organizations believe they’re protected, but gaps in identity governance, access controls, and enforcement tell a different story. Without consistent verification, security frameworks fall short where it matters most: End User Access Management.

      Get Audit Ready

      Preparing for a CMMC assessment can be complex when control ownership isn’t clear. Our CMMC Shared Responsibility Matrix helps you quickly align CyberQP’s platform capabilities with customer responsibilities so you can streamline audit prep, eliminate guesswork, and confidently demonstrate control ownership.

      Stop Guessing, Start Demonstrating Control.

      Preparing for an audit isn’t just about having controls in place, it’s about clearly showing who is responsible for what. Our Shared Responsibility Matrix breaks down NIST 800-171 and CMMC practices line by line, mapping each requirement to CyberQP’s role and the customer’s role.

      Instead of vague assumptions, you get documented clarity auditors expect: which controls are partially enforced by CyberQP, where customer configuration is required, and how responsibilities align across access control, authorization, and enforcement. This makes audit conversations faster, cleaner, and far easier to defend.

      Examples of CMMC 2.0 Security Controls That PAM Supports

      Access Control (AC):

      Privileged Access Management solutions will help you limit access to sensitive information, keeping the number of security risks as low as possible and minimizing your attack surfaces.

      MSP Statistics

      Identification and Authentication (IA):

      This requirement calls for security measures to safeguard CUI and only grant access to authorize users, which specifically calls for identity verification before granting access to an organization’s digital environments or devices.

      Are You Audit Ready?

      This guide gives you clear, documented evidence of how privileged access controls are shared, enforced, and validated against CMMC and NIST 800-171 requirements. If you are preparing for an assessment or tightening controls ahead of one, this reference helps you walk into the audit with clarity and confidence.

      How This MSP Secured Healthcare Clients with CyberQP

      With CyberQP’s Just-in-Time Accounts and Passwordless login for technicians, accounts are disables when not in use. Which means no standing access for your admins.

      CyberQP’s daily password rotations eliminates static credentials and the reuse of passwords, saving you time from manual rotations and securing all of your privileged accounts.

      Just-in-Time Access provides no account to hijack or privileges to exploit, further reducing the attack surface of your privileged accounts.

      When Healthcare Data Is the Target, Standing Privileges Make You Vulnerable.

      Cybercriminals know that unrestricted admin access is the easiest way to breach high-value environments like healthcare networks. One MSP found out just how quickly things can go wrong and how QGuard stopped an attack in its tracks.

      Our case study shows how Zero Standing Privilege, real-time detection, and HIPAA-ready controls helped secure 2,000+ endpoints and prevent a devastating breach.

      Healthcare data breach

      How This MSP Secured Healthcare Clients with CyberQP

      To protect high-risk healthcare environments, this MSP needed to close gaps created by standing admin privileges. They implemented CyberQP’s QGuard to reduce attack surfaces and make admin accounts a moving target for attackers.

      Just months after deploying QGuard, a cybercriminal used compromised credentials to access a healthcare client’s system. QGuard detected abnormal activity instantly. Within 30 minutes, the attacker was locked out and patient data remained secure. 

      Healthcare clients need both stronger security and HIPAA-ready compliance. CyberQP delivers audit-ready controls mapped to HIPAA and backed by SOC 2 Type 2 certification. The MSP could now secure privileged access while simplifying regulatory requirements for their clients.
