Case Study: South Yorkshire Housing Association achieves secure, auditable control of third-party privileged access with WALLIX AdminBastion

South Yorkshire Housing Association (SYHA) chooses Wallix AdminBastion to control access to its trading servers

South Yorkshire Housing Association (SYHA), a not‑for‑profit managing nearly 6,000 homes, needed to mitigate the risks of third‑party and internal privileged access while keeping a continuous audit trail. Advised by Data Connect, SYHA chose WALLIX and its Wallix AdminBastion suite to control and granularly manage access to trading servers and sensitive systems across seven third‑party organisations and its own staff.

WALLIX implemented Wallix AdminBastion to identify users, assign permissions, record session activity (including video logs), and provide platform‑agnostic remote access with built‑in backup for business continuity. The solution gave SYHA scalable, easy‑to‑interpret audit trails and centralized permission management across heterogeneous environments, reducing privileged access risk, improving security controls, and ensuring continuity of service.
