Case Study: State & Local Government achieves 25–49% IT productivity gains with BeyondTrust PowerBroker

State & Local Government - Customer Case Study

A state and local government agency turned to BeyondTrust to reduce breach risk, meet compliance (SOX, HIPAA, CJIS), tighten operations, secure sensitive data and lower TCO. Their main challenges were removing local admin rights, elevating privileges only when needed, and capturing logged, audited and reportable privileged activity.

They deployed PowerBroker for Windows to enforce least privilege and centralize logging and reporting. After evaluating Dell/Quest and CA, the agency found BeyondTrust’s privileged account capabilities, reporting/analytics, security context, deployment flexibility and TCO “very differentiated,” increased IT staff productivity by 25–49%, and plans to expand auditing and reporting next.
