PHOENIX, August 15, 2018 – BeyondTrust, the leading cyber security company dedicated to preventing privilege misuse and stopping unauthorized access, today announced extremely strong second quarter and 2018 year-to-date results, with a significant revenue increase, hundreds of new customers, accelerating growth outside of North America, and a growing channel. 2018 1st half highlights include:
With these results, the company extended its leadership position with the most comprehensive privileged access management (PAM) solution available today.
As IT leverages next-generation technologies including cloud infrastructure and IoT, and business processes like DevSecOps in their environments, enterprises are optimistic about the business benefits these technologies can bring. In fact, in a recent BeyondTrust survey, 90 percent of enterprises are engaged with at least one next-generation technology or process, yet 78 percent of respondents cited security risks associated with next-generation technologies as somewhat to extremely large. Privileged access management solutions like BeyondTrust’s unified platform ease this transition for IT and facilitate the move to these technologies according to 82 percent of respondents.
“With over 100 percent growth in our privileged password and session management solution and the addition of several blue-chip customers it is clear that our products and vision are resonating in the marketplace,” said Kevin Hickey, President and CEO at BeyondTrust. “We are excited to help address our customers’ current security needs and look forward to addressing their future needs as they deploy the critical privilege security layer across their on-premise, cloud, and hybrid environments.”
“The continued expansion of more than 20 new partners in BeyondTrust’s global partner network alone thus far in the first half of the year has been an exciting development,” said Joseph Schramm, Vice President of Strategic Alliances at BeyondTrust. “In addition, our consulting and Global SI program continues to show continued accelerated growth and has delivered nearly a dozen key customer wins.”
