License Overview

The WALLIX BestSafe license defines how endpoint protection and privilege control are applied across your environment. Instead of focusing only on detection, it enables proactive control over how applications run and how users interact with the system. In real environments, licensing is typically based on the number of endpoints or users being protected. This includes workstations, laptops, and other systems where application control and privilege management are required.

WALLIX BestSafe is designed to complement broader security strategies by reducing the attack surface at the endpoint level. It works alongside access management and privileged access controls to provide a more complete security posture. Choosing the right license scope is important. If coverage is too limited, some endpoints may remain unprotected. If it’s oversized, it may increase cost without additional value. A properly aligned license ensures consistent protection across all relevant systems.

Product Overview

WALLIX BestSafe focuses on securing endpoints by controlling what users and applications can do. Instead of relying only on detection after an attack, it enforces policies that prevent risky behavior in the first place.

In practice, this means restricting application execution, limiting user privileges, and preventing unauthorized changes to the system. For example, users may be prevented from installing unknown software or running unapproved applications.

One of the key advantages is that it reduces reliance on traditional admin rights. Users can perform necessary tasks without having full administrative privileges, which lowers the risk of misuse or compromise.

When used as part of a broader WALLIX deployment, BestSafe strengthens endpoint security while working alongside access control and session management tools.

Core technical flow

1. Endpoint agents are deployed across user systems
2. Security policies define allowed applications and behaviors
3. User actions and application execution are evaluated in real time
4. Unauthorized or risky actions are blocked or restricted
5. Privileges are elevated temporarily if approved
6. Activity is logged for monitoring and audit purposes

Options & Tiers

Features & Benefits

WALLIX BestSafe helps organizations reduce endpoint risk by controlling application behavior and limiting user privileges. Instead of reacting to threats, it prevents many common attack paths from being exploited.

One of the main benefits is reduced attack surface. By restricting what can run and what users can do, the chances of malware execution or misuse are significantly lower.

It also improves operational control. Administrators can define policies that apply consistently across all endpoints, ensuring that security rules are enforced everywhere.

Over time, this approach helps maintain a more stable and secure endpoint environment without heavily impacting user productivity.

Platform Requirements

Standard Compatibility

• Policy definition and management
• Centralized administration (optional)

How activation works

Activating WALLIX BestSafe typically involves applying a license that enables endpoint protection capabilities across your environment.

After deployment, the system generates a context file containing details about your environment. This file is submitted to the WALLIX licensing portal or support channel. WALLIX then provides a signed license file that matches your deployment. Once uploaded into the management interface, the license activates the defined number of endpoints or users.

This process works for both connected and isolated environments. In air-gapped setups, the context and license files can be transferred securely without requiring direct internet access. After activation, administrators can begin applying policies, managing endpoints, and verifying that all protected systems fall within the licensed scope.

Cost factors and quote process

WALLIX BestSafe pricing is mainly based on the number of endpoints or users being protected. Larger environments with more systems will require broader licensing.

Additional factors, such as policy complexity, deployment scale, and integration with other WALLIX components, can also influence pricing.

Subscription length plays a role as well, with longer terms often providing better value.

The most accurate pricing comes from aligning the solution with your actual endpoint environment and security requirements.
