Case Study: Miami International Holdings achieves regulatory assurance and full privileged-access auditability with BeyondTrust PowerBroker Password Safe

Miami International Holdings Extends its Privileged Access Management Processes

Miami International Holdings (MIAX) is a high‑performance electronic options exchange that needed to meet stringent SEC security and auditing requirements. The exchange required full keystroke logging and strict separation of technical and operational environments, along with high availability across data centers, integration with existing SSH tools and PowerBroker for Unix & Linux, and a self‑contained deployment that would not rely on the corporate SQL database.

MIAX deployed BeyondTrust PowerBroker Password Safe (integrated with their PowerBroker for Unix & Linux and BeyondInsight) to centralize privileged password and session management. The solution enabled single sign‑on and one‑click SSH session launches (eliminating the daily overhead of 8–10 manual sessions), provided full forensic logging with Google‑like search and session replay for faster investigations, and delivered HA and consolidated analytics via a risk dashboard—improving efficiency, auditability, and operational separation.
