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.
Every major security investment — 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.
Once credentials are accepted, there is no ongoing check that the person behind the session is the person who authenticated.
Credential rotation and checkout policies don't prevent misuse after a session is open.
Probabilistic detection relies on patterns and generates alerts that analysts triage hours or days later.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Real-time visibility into every privileged remote session across your environment. One authoritative map of who is connecting, how, and to what.
Continuous verification and real-time enforcement. Every action is attested or blocked — no exceptions, no delays, no false positives.
Tamper-evident, continuous audit trails structured for regulatory scrutiny. Prove exactly who did what, when, and whether it was authorized.
Keystrike is not a replacement for your existing tools. It closes the governance gap that none of them address.

Keystrike's tamper-evident audit trails and cryptographic session evidence are structured to meet the requirements of major regulatory frameworks. Compliance evidence is a continuous output of governance working as designed.
“When I learned about Keystrike, I loved the simplicity. Keystrike ensures that only our own employees are accessing our servers, not adversaries who have hacked our employees. But Keystrike also doesn’t bother or distract our employees at all, which is a great win-win: stronger security without added inconvenience.”
“In about 20 minutes, I had Keystrike up and running. The deployment is simple, well thought out, with clear documentation. Now Keystrike helps us establish that commands are genuine and trustworthy by detecting lurking attackers and blocking when they inject themselves into active sessions.”
Keystrike customers include a central bank, a city government, and enterprises across critical infrastructure.
The post-authentication gap is not theoretical.
