Case Study: Telstra Super achieves centralized, audit-ready privileged access and stronger password security with Delinea Secret Server

Secret Server transforms password management security for Australia’s largest corporate Superannuation Fund

Telstra Super is Australia’s largest corporate superannuation fund, managing over $20 billion for more than 100,000 members while operating with a compact 250-user IT team. An audit requirement exposed weaknesses in its password and privileged account practices—previously handled with Active Directory and KeePass—so the team needed a mature, easy-to-deploy privileged account management solution that met automation, change-management and compliance needs without burdening limited resources.

Telstra Super selected Thycotic Secret Server, which delivered a fast proof-of-concept, an intuitive web form filler, and a centralized vault for passwords, SSL certificates and secrets. The platform automated discovery and rotation, provided granular access controls and reporting for audit visibility, and integrated with CI/CD and two-factor authentication workflows, driving higher adoption, stronger security hygiene and measurable efficiency gains while ensuring ongoing regulatory compliance.
