Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege management software is being used across my entire project as a tool to prevent malicious software from being installed on our laptop workstations. The business problems it addresses is primarily cybersecurity within our devices that we use in enterprise. Our local technology support team primarily manages this product and it gives us the capability to do our work and install certain programs with elevated status as necessary.

Pros and Cons

  • security
  • endpoint protection
  • access management
  • design
  • user experience
  • software functionality

Likelihood to Recommend

BeyondTrust is well suited to do the job in business environments where you need to have something working in the background to ensure users stay protected and malicious programs don't get installed. For scenarios where we've got developer environments, this software interferes more as it doesn't allow certain software and libraries to be installed.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It is used as a privileged account management solution in our organization. It is being deployed to all developers and administrators who have access to our servers. It addresses our security concerns as well as potentially keeping the users from abusing privileges.

Pros and Cons

  • Password management and Secure access to servers
  • Ability to remotely log a session off
  • Administrators having the capability to view the changes made on a specific server through the recording mechanism
  • Integrates well with any servers both on-prem and on cloud
  • Difficult set-up process. Takes numerous iterations of setting up
  • GUI is not user-friendly. Hard to understand the options available and what they do unless you spend a lot of time working on it
  • Might be expensive depending on the licenses you purchase.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is an absolute must in all organizations where security is taken seriously. For organizations where there is a tendency among the users' end to abuse access privileges, this tool comes in handy. It has features that would enable the administrator to look through video logs to see what was done by a specific user. Also has the capability to terminate or lock users/ user sessions.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have used PBW for several years now and have been overall pleased with the results. Our primary goal to rid users of needing local admin has been solved. Disclaimer: To be fair, we didn't take too much time to first compare with other vendors, but being that I personally had experience with the product, we landed right away on BT.

Only issues we have run into revolve around either crafting specific rules for applications that are tricky to write for. Also,new versions of the product or a new (Microsoft & MAC) OS, you need to be very careful to check for compatibility, as it's a kernel-mode filter driver! Their support have been quite helpful.

Pros and Cons

  • Solved our primary goal to rid users of needing local admin
  • Their support have been quite helpful
  • Better communication to customers on new release compatibility
  • Crowd-sourced rule logic for specific applications would be nice (I hear underway)
  • Technical support processes could be a bit improved

Likelihood to Recommend

Goal of removal of local admin rights will be solved. Initial application rule logic a bit tough to get going, but sales engineering team are very helpful with this. Then, ongoing maintenance, other than worrying about new releases, should go smoothly without adding too much on-site support complexity. Best to keep app rule logic as simple as possible.
