To maximize the effectiveness and security of your Remote Support deployment, we recommend the following practices. These are aligned with our broader commitment to helping customers secure access at every layer.
1. Keep Your Deployment Up to Date
For on-prem instances, enable “Apply Critical Updates Automatically” in the /appliance interface to simplify patching.
Upgrade to the latest version for access to the newest security improvements.
2. Strengthen Credential Management
Use the BeyondTrust Vault (included with every Remote Support deployment) to support discovery, rotation, and injection of credentials on up to 100k accounts.
Validate your policies and settings are being applied as intended using the Session Policy simulator.
4. Review and Harden Network Configurations
Ensure that you are adhering to the network restriction best practices outlined in our documentation to prevent unauthorized access.
Integrate with a SIEM using one of our various middleware for session data, and regularly review to monitor changes and detect anomalies and suspicious activity.
Use outbound events to trigger alerts or log session activity in real-time.
Configure syslog to send all configuration changes and authentication events to your SIEM.
