Case Study: Large Enterprise Media & Entertainment Company achieves secure, automated privileged access and compliance with BeyondTrust PowerBroker

Large Enterprise Media & Entertainment Company - Customer Case Study

A large enterprise media and entertainment company implemented BeyondTrust’s PowerBroker to reduce breach risk, meet compliance requirements, tighten operational practices, and secure access to sensitive data. Their goals included automating privileged password management, eliminating shared credentials, removing local admin rights, and consolidating access across UNIX, Linux and Mac systems.

They deployed PowerBroker for Windows and PowerBroker Servers for Unix/Linux to automate password cycling, elevate privileges only when needed, log and audit privileged activity, replace sudo, and centralize credentials. After evaluating CyberArk and Centrify, the customer rated BeyondTrust’s privilege capabilities, security context, low TCO and flexible deployment as highly differentiated, and reported the solution “has been a great help in securing user end points”; their next project is attaining least privilege on endpoints and servers.
