Case Study: University of Tasmania achieves reliable, easy-to-use privileged access security with Delinea Secret Server Cloud

Easy-to-Use, Easy-to-Deploy Secret Server Cloud Delivers Comprehensive PAM Security

The University of Tasmania, a large multi-campus institution supporting tens of thousands of users across more than 80 sites, needed to replace an insecure, single-edit password spreadsheet that left privileged credentials exposed and provided no visibility or control. IT now manages 200 systems and 1,500 servers, so the team required a fast-to-deploy, easy-to-use privileged access solution that would scale and meet compliance needs.

They deployed Thycotic Secret Server Cloud—an Azure-hosted, two-factor, AES‑256 encrypted PAM platform with role-based access controls and instant reporting—migrating spreadsheet passwords in under a week. The result was immediate visibility into privileged activity, simplified permissions, stronger audit evidence for risk assessments, reliable uptime, and positive user feedback that the service “just works.”
