Case Study: EuroAirport secures centralized, auditable privileged access and regulatory compliance with WALLIX PAM

EuroAirport secures its privileged access with WALLIX PAM

EuroAirport, the unique binational airport at the crossroads of France, Switzerland and Germany, needed to secure privileged access across a heterogeneous estate of more than 470 servers (60% Windows, 40% Unix) and some 6,500 employees. Key challenges included managing authentication for external partners across two Active Directories, tracking actions by administrators and service providers, and meeting aviation regulatory standards such as PART-IS and 3CF. To address this, EuroAirport selected WALLIX and its WALLIX PAM solution.

WALLIX deployed WALLIX PAM in phased rollouts with full IT/OT integration, ANSSI CSPN certification and 24/7 support, then tuned the platform with field feedback and reinforced governance with the RSS team. The result is centralized, auditable privileged access across the airport estate—with session recording, connection control and ICAP proxy integration—improving traceability, operational security and compliance while simplifying daily access management and freeing up IT team time. WALLIX’s solution thus strengthened both security posture and regulatory adherence.
