Case Study: Loyola University Maryland achieves a rapid, seamless migration to Secret Server Cloud with Delinea

University makes quick, smooth transition from Secret Server on-premise to Secret Server Cloud

Loyola University Maryland, a private Jesuit school of about 5,000 students, faced sprawling admin, service and shared accounts that made privileged credential management difficult for its 55‑person Technology Services team. Tim Enders, the senior systems engineer, had been using Thycotic Secret Server on‑premise to identify accounts, centralize credentials in an encrypted vault, rotate passwords and provide audit trails, but the university wanted a cloud-first solution that fit its broader cloud strategy.

After a CISO security review, Loyola moved to Thycotic Secret Server Cloud; the environment was stood up in about a week and the migration completed in a single day with strong Thycotic support. The cloud deployment delivered immediate benefits: reduced mechanical maintenance (freeing staff to focus on user service), an intuitive UI, improved high availability and disaster resistance, consistent password management and clear audit trails for handling staff turnover.
