Aligning with the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC)’s Essential Eight - a prioritised list of cybersecurity risk mitigation strategies – is required for Australian Government departments and agencies. It is also implemented by many private sector organisations looking towards its best practices.
While Essential Eight initiatives can be complex, Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions can significantly help organisations to meet seven of the Essential Eight mitigation strategies, including all of the Top 4.
In the resources below you will find a wealth of information that explains the Essential Eight and how BeyondTrust's Privileged Access Management solutions can provide coverage or compensating controls across the maturity levels of these cybersecurity strategies.
While no set of mitigation strategies are guaranteed to protect against all cyber threats, organisations are recommended to implement eight essential mitigation strategies from the ACSC’s Strategies to Mitigate Cyber Security Incidents as a baseline. This baseline, known as the Essential Eight, makes it much harder for adversaries to compromise systems.
