The Highlights

# 1

Bi-Directional Communication

Garancy can not only control your target systems, it can also be controlled by them. It is up to you.

# 2

Customizable Target/Actual Comparison (Live Balancing)

Deviations between the target system and Garancy can be either adopted or rejected. The choice is yours.

# 3

Encrypted Communication

The communication with your target systems is based on recommendations from the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI).

# 4

Password Reset Support

Reduce the workload of your administrators by enabling users to reset passwords themselves.

# 5

Initial Load of Accounts and Groups

Setting up new target systems is simplified by the initial loading of accounts and groups.
