Run ARCON PAM India: vault the passwords, record the sessions, grant admin rights just in time.
How a Mumbai NBFC stopped sharing admin passwords, put every privileged login behind ARCON, and walked into its RBI audit with the evidence already exported. Story below.
ARCON Privileged Access Management at a glance
Why ARCON anchors most Indian privileged access management estates.
- OEM
- ARCON Techsolutions Ltd, a Mumbai-based security software company founded in 2006. Its PAM suite is reviewed on Gartner Peer Insights and used by more than 1,000 organisations.
- What it does
- Locks privileged credentials in a vault, records every privileged session with searchable command logs, and grants admin rights through just-in-time access instead of standing access.
- Product lines
- ARCON PAM for privileged access, ARCON EPM for endpoint privilege, ARCON UBA for user behaviour analytics, ARCON SCM for compliance, and Cloud Governance for entitlements across cloud accounts.
- Where your data sits
- ARCON runs on your own servers or a cloud region you choose, so privileged data can stay inside India for DPDP reasons. Sirius Star sets the deployment up that way by default.
- Where it fits in India
- Banks, NBFCs, insurers, manufacturing and IT-services firms that answer to RBI cyber resilience norms or the SEBI CSCRF and need clean audit evidence.
- Licensing
- Priced per privileged user and per managed target, quote-based. Most buyers overcount targets, so a scoping pass is where the real saving sits.
- Support
- Licensing, deployment, vault configuration and a quarterly managed retainer run through Sirius Star, coordinated from Vashi, Navi Mumbai.

ARCON Privileged Access Management vs CyberArk, Delinea, BeyondTrust
All four are honest choices. Most Indian buyers land on the first option for service depth and ecosystem fit.
| Brand | Where it wins | Best fit |
|---|---|---|
| ARCON | Built in Mumbai, billed in INR, with RBI and SEBI CSCRF reporting shaped for Indian regulators and support that answers in IST. | Regulated Indian BFSI, NBFCs and insurers that want local engineering, India data residency and audit evidence out of the box. |
| CyberArk | The deepest global PAM feature set with a large partner network, priced at a premium. | Large enterprises with a global footprint and the budget and team to run it. |
| Delinea | Quick to deploy with strong secrets management and a clean admin experience. | Mid-market teams that want a fast rollout and lighter operational load. |
| BeyondTrust | Strong endpoint privilege and vendor remote-access control. | Teams whose first pain is third-party remote access and endpoint elevation. |

ARCON Privileged Access Management India FAQ
Common questions about this brand for Indian buyers. Hover any underlined term for a plain-English definition.
What is ARCON PAM?
ARCON PAM is a privileged access management platform from ARCON Techsolutions in Mumbai. It vaults privileged credentials, records every privileged session with searchable command logs, enforces multi-factor and single sign-on, and grants admin rights just in time so standing access drops to near zero. It is built for regulated Indian buyers who need audit-ready evidence.
Is ARCON available in India?
Yes. ARCON is an Indian company headquartered in Mumbai, with its product roadmap and support run from India. Sirius Star handles licensing, deployment, vault configuration and a quarterly managed retainer, coordinated from Vashi, Navi Mumbai, with a free review before any quote.
ARCON vs CyberArk, which do we need?
Both are capable PAM platforms. CyberArk has the deepest global feature set and a premium price, which suits large global enterprises. ARCON is built in Mumbai, billed in INR, and ships RBI and SEBI CSCRF-shaped reporting, which lowers procurement friction for a regulated Indian buyer. If your driver is local engineering, India data residency and audit evidence, ARCON is usually the shorter path.
Does ARCON help with RBI, SEBI and DPDP?
It does. ARCON exports cyber-resilience and SEBI CSCRF-shaped reports that map to what Indian regulators ask for, and it can be deployed so privileged data stays inside India for the DPDP Act 2023. Under that Act a data fiduciary faces a statutory penalty of up to 250 crore rupees for a single breach, and weak privileged access is a common root cause, so the evidence ARCON produces matters at audit time.
What does ARCON cost in India in 2026?
Indicative*: ARCON is licensed per privileged user and per managed target, and a mid-size BFSI deployment usually runs from a few lakh rupees into the tens of lakhs a year depending on users, targets and the managed retainer. Most of the saving comes from counting targets correctly rather than from list discount, so a scoping review usually pays for itself.
