BeyondTrust introduces Universal
Privilege Management journey to
help organisations expand privilege
security and compliance
BeyondTrust Universal
Privilege Management enables
a modern approach to PAM.
The journey to Universal
Privilege Management is
customisable so organisations
can quickly secure IT
environments, reduce risk and
meet compliance mandates.
BeyondTrust, a worldwide leader in
Privileged Access Management
(PAM), has introduced a guide to
its new Universal Privilege Management
approach to PAM.
This modern approach addresses the entire
universe of privileges across organisations,
which continues to grow with the expansion
of cloud, Internet-connected devices,
dynamic DevOps and more. The Universal
Privilege Management model offers a holistic
approach to securing every privileged user,
session and endpoint, guiding organisations
along a journey that allows them to address
critical risk areas and immediately begin
shrinking the attack surface.
The new guide helps organisations map
their own Universal Privilege Management
journey to address a variety of PAM use
cases. This approach allows users to select
use cases that are most critical, then easily
expand to implement a comprehensive PAM
solution over time.
The benefits of BeyondTrust’s Universal
Privilege Management approach include:
• Shrinking the attack surface and
windows of exposure by enforcing
true least privilege by controlling

both time (the duration privileges are
granted) and space (the privileges and
access pathways)
• Monitoring privileged user, session
and file activities for unauthorised
access or changes that inappropriately
effect the organisation’s sensitive data or
normal business operations
• Analysing asset and user behaviour
to detect suspicious or malicious
activities to secure operations in
accordance with security best practices
and regulatory guidance
• Adopting a low-impact approach
for PAM across the entire enterprise,
protecting privileges without obstructing
productivity, while also unlocking riskreducing
synergies to minimise
resource consumption
• Implementing seamless PAM
integrations to other missioncritical
security solutions (e.g. Identify
Governance and Administration
(IGA), Security Information and Event
Management (SIEM), IT Service
Management (ITSM), etc.) to
maximise value, streamline workflow
and reduce risk
The BeyondTrust portfolio is an integrated
solution that drastically reduces the attack
surface and windows of exposure, while
boosting business productivity.
These solutions are all underpinned
by BeyondInsight, the industry’s most
innovative, comprehensive Privileged Access
Management platform that maximises
visibility, simplifies deployment, automates
tasks, improves security and reduces
privilege-related risks.
• Privileged Password Management
discovers, onboards, manages and
audits every privileged account – both
human and non-human – and tracks
every session
• Endpoint Privilege Management
grants the appropriate privilege to the
right user or application, just for the time
it is needed
• Secure Remote Access enables
organisations to manage and audit
privileged remote access for employees
and vendors
“Today’s challenge is managing the
explosion of privileges across the enterprise,
which is hard to do when the number of
users who need privileges is growing rapidly,”
said Morey Haber, Chief Technology Officer
and Chief Information Security Officer,
BeyondTrust. “It’s more than managing
passwords in a vault for a limited set of
privileged users, which is no longer enough.
Universal Privilege Management from
BeyondTrust gives users absolute control
over every privilege in their environment. •
