At Syteca, we don\u2019t build features for the sake of it \u2014 we build them to solve real problems. That\u2019s why we\u2019re proud to launch Syteca\u2019s newest release: a meaningful upgrade built around the needs of our clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From a fresh visual design and data masking to agentless access and enhanced session playback, this update addresses the real needs of IT teams for better data privacy, simplified access management, and seamless oversight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"What's<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

New functionalities at a glance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Release 7.21 introduces several impactful updates to Syteca\u2019s capabilities. Here\u2019s a quick look at the platform\u2019s new features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sensitive data masking<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Syteca UAM<\/a> is the first solution on the market<\/strong> to offer real-time sensitive data masking during user session monitoring. The platform now automatically detects and obscures confidential information, such as passwords, credit card numbers, Social Security numbers, and other confidential data during both live session viewing and session recordings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Masking sensitive data helps protect users\u2019 sensitive information from exposure and supports compliance with data privacy regulations, standards, and laws like the GDPR<\/a>, PCI DSS<\/a>, and HIPAA<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How it works:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Syteca can detect the precise location of sensitive data on the screen, it blurs only that area. If the on-screen location cannot be determined, the entire screen is blurred to prevent exposure. Clipboard and keyboard input containing sensitive data are also obscured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, the feature supports Chrome and Edge browsers as well as Microsoft Office apps, including Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t

Web connection manager<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Syteca PAM<\/a> now provides agentless privileged access management. Employees and vendors can securely initiate remote sessions directly from their browser, with no local software required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The web connection manager allows you to streamline and accelerate privileged access provisioning while reducing requirements for specialized setup and IT department overhead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How it works:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without the need for an agent, users can initiate RDP sessions (Windows systems) and SSH sessions (Linux and Unix) using stored secrets. Sessions can be launched on Windows and macOS in supported browsers (Chrome, Safari, and Edge).<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t

Full-motion capture of on-screen activity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Syteca has also upgraded session recording: instead of static screenshots, the platform now provides smooth, continuous full-motion videos. Every user click and cursor movement is now captured, offering full visibility into user activity with no gaps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Full-motion capture gives your security team uninterrupted insight into user sessions, allowing for faster incident investigations, deeper forensic analysis, and more detailed audit trails that leave no room for misinterpretation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How it works:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This feature can be enabled for individual or grouped Windows clients. Once activated, full-motion capture starts recording user sessions as encrypted and compressed videos for secure and efficient monitoring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can switch between full-motion capture and interval capture whenever needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t

A fresh UI designed for clarity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The 7.21 release isn\u2019t just about new capabilities \u2014 it\u2019s also about a better user experience. In addition to bringing new features, we\u2019ve improved the platform’s look and feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Syteca\u2019s new UI is neat and modern. While the platform\u2019s navigation remains unchanged, the refreshed look provides a clearer, more intuitive visual experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t
