While giving end users admin privileges enables increased efficiency in the short-term, it drastically increases organizations’ exposure to online threats. Since least privilege is a core tenet of zero trust, this trend of loosening privilege controls runs afoul of zero trust principles—even as organizations increasingly embrace the zero trust mindset.
To better grasp the top threats and cybersecurity trends seen as impacting public sector agencies now and over the next three years, BeyondTrust surveyed 200 senior IT and security professionals across the public sector. Survey respondents shed some fascinating insights on public sector security trends, concerns, threat actors, and technology priorities. Last week, we published the results and analysis in our 2021 Cybersecurity Trends in Government Report.
In typical computing environments, an identity represents a one-to-one relationship between a carbon-based life and their digital presence. Their digital presence, however, can have multiple accounts, multiple credentials, and an infinite number of entitlements in electronic format.
BeyondInsight Discovery Tool, is a standalone, simple-to-use BeyondTrust utility that you can securely leverage to scan networks and systems to uncover privileged accounts, credentials, and remote access tools, as well as misconfigurations (i.e. user accounts with admin credentials, and service accounts using user accounts for access) that can create risk.
The annual cybersecurity trends prediction season is once again upon us. We come armed with our top prognostications for 2022, as well as a glimpse into what we presage happening 5 years from now.
Two recent cyber threat reports published by government agencies in Australia and New Zealand reaffirm the ongoing challenges faced by IT security teams across the region. Both reports also highlight the best practices urgently needed, such as privileged access management (PAM), to mitigate the threats. This blog will distill some key takeaways from the two reports.
An overview of Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) including, how it works, common use cases, RDP security risks, best practices for securing RDP, and alternatives to RDP, including BeyondTrust Secure Remote Access.
In July 2021, the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) published revisions to the Essential Eight, its top-line strategy recommendations for mitigating cyber risk within organisations.
