Govern Every Action Inside Privileged Sessions
Identity tools verify who logs in. Keystrike governs what happens next.
There is a persistent Governance Gap between access intent — who you authorized — and access reality — what actually happens inside the session. IAM, PAM, MFA, SIEM, and EDR were not designed to close it. Keystrike was.
Our continuous remote access governance platform delivers live visibility into every session, deterministic enforcement that blocks unauthorized commands through cryptographic attestation, and continuous audit-ready proof of control — without replacing a single tool in your existing stack.
The Governance Gap: What Happens Between Login and Your Next Alert
Every major security investment you've made — IAM, MFA, PAM, SIEM, EDR — focuses on one of two moments: the point of login or the aftermath of a breach. None of them govern what happens during an active privileged session. Attackers know this.
This is the Governance Gap between access intent and access reality. IAM grants the key. SIEM stores the record. But between login and the next alert, no tool in your stack governs the session. That is where attackers operate — and where Keystrike closes the gap.
IAM & MFA verify the login, then go silent
Once credentials are accepted, there is no ongoing check that the person behind the session is the person who authenticated.
PAM vaults credentials but doesn't watch the session
Credential rotation and checkout policies don't prevent misuse after a session is open.
SIEM & EDR detect anomalies — after the damage
Probabilistic detection relies on patterns and generates alerts that analysts triage hours or days later.
Attackers live off the land, undetected
Stolen credentials, session hijacking, and injected commands let adversaries operate inside legitimate sessions without triggering any alert.
Between authentication and post-incident analysis lies the post-authentication gap — where 86% of real attacks unfold with no security control in place.
Continuous Remote Access Governance — Built on Patented Cryptographic Attestation
Keystrike is built on a foundational insight: the one thing attackers cannot fake is physical human input. Our patented technology cryptographically ties every action inside a remote session to a verified physical keystroke or mouse event on an approved device. No behavioral guessing. No probabilistic scoring. Deterministic verification, every time.
Patented Technology
Keystrike's physical input verification method is protected by patent. This is not a feature added to an existing platform — it is the architectural foundation of a new category of security: Continuous Access Governance.
How It Works
Three lightweight components. No network re-architecture. Deploy in approximately 20 minutes.
Workstation Agent
A lightweight agent on the user's approved device recognizes legitimate physical keystrokes and mouse input. It generates a cryptographic attestation for each action, proving the input originated from a real human on an authorized endpoint.
No keylogging. No PII capture. Only attestation signals.
Server-Side Terminator
A second agent on the destination server withholds all incoming input until it receives a valid cryptographic attestation. Verified input is processed normally. Unattested input — from scripts, injected commands, or hijacked sessions — is blocked instantly.
Real-time enforcement. Zero false positives.
Live Visibility Layer
The SEE module maps every remote protocol across your environment — RDP, SSH, PowerShell Remoting, WinRM, WMI, SMB, and third-party tools like NinjaOne and TeamViewer — showing which sessions are governed and where gaps remain.
Complete session topology. No blind spots.
See. Control. Prove.
Three capabilities that transform remote session security from reactive logging to continuous, real-time governance.
SEE
Real-time visibility into every privileged remote session across your environment. One authoritative map of who is connecting, how, and to what.
- Live session map across all protocols
- Surface unknown clients and unmanaged assets
- Historical session evidence on demand
- Policy simulation before enforcement
CONTROL
Continuous verification and real-time enforcement. Every action is attested or blocked — no exceptions, no delays, no false positives.
- Cryptographic attestation of physical input
- Automatic blocking of unverified commands
- Immediate enforcement in RDP and SSH
- Supports vendor and third-party access
PROVE
Tamper-evident, continuous audit trails structured for regulatory scrutiny. Prove exactly who did what, when, and whether it was authorized.
- Immutable session evidence
- DORA, NIS2, IEC 62443 ready
- Board reporting and incident response
- On-demand audit export
How Keystrike Compares
Keystrike is not a replacement for your existing tools. It closes the governance gap that none of them address.
Unlike PAM solutions such as CyberArk and BeyondTrust — which manage credential vaulting but go blind once a session starts — and unlike SIEM platforms such as Splunk — which detect threats after the fact through probabilistic analysis — Keystrike provides continuous, cryptographic verification of every action inside the session in real time. It deploys in approximately 20 minutes, requires no rip-and-replace of existing tools, and produces zero false positives because it uses deterministic enforcement rather than behavioral analytics.

Complete Your Security Stack
Keystrike is the essential final piece that makes your existing investments in identity, access management, and threat detection work together to deliver Continuous Access Governance.
IAM & PAM
Controls who gets in. Without Keystrike, goes blind the moment the session starts.
Okta · CyberArk · BeyondTrust · Delinea · Microsoft Entra ID
SIEM, SOAR & XDR
Records and correlates events. Without Keystrike, relies on reactive, probabilistic detection.
Splunk · Microsoft Sentinel · CrowdStrike · Palo Alto Cortex
Keystrike
The Governor
Continuous Remote Access Governance. Every action inside the session verified cryptographically from login to logout — closing the Governance Gap that IAM, PAM, and SIEM were never designed to address.
Cryptographic attestation · Deterministic enforcement · Zero false positives
The Numbers Tell the Story
The post-authentication gap is not theoretical. These are real-world figures from leading cybersecurity research.
What Security Leaders Say
"In critical infrastructure, protection across all layers of cyber defense is non-negotiable. Keystrike strengthens one of the earliest and most overlooked layers: verifying that the person behind a remote connection is genuinely the human authorized to be there. By inserting an additional control between multi-factor authentication and the first keystroke, it gives us another defensive barrier before any action can take place."
Keystrike customers include a central bank, a city government, and enterprises across critical infrastructure.
Built for Regulatory Scrutiny
Keystrike's tamper-evident audit trails and cryptographic session evidence are structured to meet the requirements of major regulatory frameworks.
Keystrike is not a compliance tool. Compliance evidence is a continuous output of governance working as designed — produced as sessions are governed, not assembled under audit pressure.
