Versions:
ScaleFT, published by ScaleFT, is a privileged access management client currently available in version 1.113.0, with a total of four versions listed in the catalog. The software is associated with Okta Privileged Access, formerly known as ScaleFT, and serves as the client component through which users connect to protected systems. Its core purpose is to provide secure, just-in-time access to servers and IT infrastructure, enabling administrators and other authorized personnel to reach the resources they need without relying on long-lived credentials. The client supports connections through SSH, RDP, and other remote protocols, making it suitable for environments where a variety of access methods are required to manage infrastructure. By replacing shared accounts and static credentials, ScaleFT addresses common security risks associated with traditional privileged access practices, such as credential exposure, account sharing, and the difficulty of auditing who accessed which system and when. Instead of distributing standing passwords or keys, the software facilitates access that is granted at the time it is needed, aligning with just-in-time access principles. As a privileged access management solution, ScaleFT fits within the security software category and is relevant to organizations that operate servers and IT infrastructure requiring controlled administrative access. Typical use cases include administrators connecting to servers over SSH for command-line management, operators using RDP for graphical remote sessions, and teams that need to eliminate shared accounts in favor of individualized, traceable access. The software is also applicable in environments undergoing a transition away from static credentials toward more secure access models. With four versions tracked in the catalog and version 1.113.0 as the current release, ScaleFT represents an actively maintained offering in the privileged access management space, providing the client-side functionality needed to establish secure remote sessions to critical infrastructure while reducing dependence on persistent, shared credentials.
