Case Study: Global 500 Telecommunications Equipment Company achieves reduced security risk and automated privileged account management with BeyondTrust PowerBroker

Global 500 Telecommunications Equipment Company - Customer Case Study

A Global 500 telecommunications equipment company engaged BeyondTrust to reduce the risk of security breaches and tighten operational practices. Facing shared privileged credentials and widespread local admin rights, the organization needed to secure and automate privileged password management, eliminate credential sharing, and enforce least-privilege access while meeting SOX compliance requirements.

They deployed PowerBroker for Windows to address those needs, evaluating competitors such as Avecto beforehand. The company rated BeyondTrust’s privilege management, reporting/analytics, and security context as very differentiated and praised the product’s maturity; removing persistent admin rights has improved their security posture and lowered infection risk. Their next PAM initiative is to enhance auditing and activity reporting.
