Which PAM tool do you prefer: CyberArk Privileged Access Manager, One Identity Safeguard, Delinea Secret Server, or BeyondTrust Privileged Remote A
Based on your extensive list of requirements, CyberArk Privileged Access Manager appears to align well with your needs due to its comprehensive feature set, strong security controls, integration capabilities, and advanced analytics for privileged access. However, it's important to conduct in-depth evaluations, demos, and discussions with each vendor to ensure that the chosen tool meets all your specific needs and integrates seamlessly into your existing infrastructure. However, I recommend visiting the official website of Broadcom (the company that acquired Symantec's enterprise security business) or contacting their sales representatives to get the most up-to-date information about their PAM solutions, including any rebranding or changes that may have occurred. When evaluating any PAM solution, it's essential to consider factors such as security, integration capabilities, ease of use, vendor support, scalability, and alignment with your organization's specific needs and compliance requirements. It's also a good practice to request demonstrations, proofs of concept, and references from vendors to ensure that the solution meets your expectations. Remember to involve key stakeholders, such as IT, security, compliance, and management teams, in the decision-making process to ensure alignment with organizational goals and requirements.

Our support team can do so much more without having to actively engage our customers, which saves us time and money
In recent days, the most valuable feature would be the Vault. Overall, the most valuable feature would be that ability to do remote support. Vault does a good job of providing visibility for domain accounts, endpoints, and local accounts associated with discovery jobs. The report tools are very robust. I know they have their report tools that you can filter through, which also give you access to the data. So, if you ever want to just do a data dump and your own analytics on it, then you could, which is really nice. We also integrate with the API for reports, which is really nice as well.

Effective for password rotation policies triggered by audit requirements, it helps maintain compliance standards and seamless integration with third-party tools
The "App to App" feature has been most impactful. It allows secure communication between applications without requiring direct user access, which is crucial for several applications. Additionally, working in the finance department, we are heavily focused on enhancing audit reporting and compliance. So, the GRC (Governance, Risk & Compliance) capabilities of Delinea Secret Server have also been crucial for us. We implemented a custom reporting system that can automatically send reports to auditors daily, weekly, or according to your organization's needs. We also upgraded the audit role within Secret Server, allowing auditors to access and analyze the reports directly. Additionally, Secret Server provides comprehensive logging capabilities. Auditors can see what data users access, their access levels, and their activities, including check-in and check-out times. Furthermore, Secret Server helped us manage privileged, elevated access, which we call "K2K." As the lead for this project, I could identify users with the highest access levels and implement specific policies to monitor their activity on servers.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product has improved remote support capabilities since it works fine."
"The scalability is excellent."
"When it comes to the Privileged Remote Access (PRA) solution, instead of depending on a VPN client, from Cisco or any other vendor, we can directly use this product from the internet. It is very easy to do the implementation, and it is easy for every user to access the server from outside of their organization. They can open the URL and put their name and password, and it'll do the multi-factor authentication. They can easily access the server. Prior to this solution, the users had to log into the VPN, which is not required with BeyondTrust. Now, they can use their computer over the internet."
"The most valuable feature is that this solution can be implemented regardless of the operating system."
"The privileged remote access platform is able to track and record everything that happens within a session."
"Its security, simplicity, and ease of deployment and maintenance are the most valuable. It is FIPS compliant, so it goes through severe penetration testing every one year or two years. They have to maintain this compliance. It is very safe. Customers have been using it in the last eight years because of the simplicity of getting it deployed quickly. Most of the people using the solution had been hacked already, so they needed it quickly. As compared to the other solutions in the market, it can be turned on in production very quickly. You don't really need to have a server. It can be deployed very rapidly on VMware or Hyper-V, and you don't need to do an installation. It is a kind of an all-included package that you just deploy in a VM environment. It is basically a VM that is specifically built for a customer. The way the PRA data solutions work is that you need to build them for each customer because of being hard-coded with their SSL certificate, their web page name, and all that."
"It is a real fortress. Its security is very strong. Multi-factor came as a feature out-of-the-box, which was big for us. That helps us meet another compliance requirement. It enforces encryption. Nobody can see what we are doing in our remote system if they happen to be listening for unencrypted traffic. That is its biggest strength."
"We can truly elevate our admin rights while we're in there to fully take control of a system and manage it as if it was sitting right here on our desk. Most of the organization has gone to remote work or work from home. With that being the case, this solution allows us to be able to still work with our end-users, even though they're not always sitting on our network."
More BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access pros
"I really like the zero trust piece."
"I find it really easy and computer confident, and the experience with the product is really good. Additionally, customizations are easy."
"Provides us with the ability to control access [to secrets] by groups."
"I like that it's user-friendly."
"The solution's stability is flawless."
"What I like best about this product is the interface."
"It offers the possibility of secure administration of hardware devices, as well as Linux systems administration from a Windows environment."
"The tool has many models. The tool also has a good cloud version. Also, the customers need not control any components on the solution side. The product's licensing model is also good since customers can choose a price that is most useful for them. The solution also supports password management for the users in your organization."
More Delinea Secret Server pros
 

Cons

"The solution's Vault is a nice feature. It helps to securely share a security password in teams, but it is not at the level of a password management solution. So, it is just really a vault. We were expecting to have more features to better manage passwords, but that is something that you can work around if you also have a password safe solution. I would like them to have features like password rotation or password auditing, e.g., old passwords."
"Multiple areas can be improved. We've seen lots of updates in the past year. They have a portal where we can submit our ideas. BeyondTrust is immediately implementing user suggestions. The UI could be more informative. Initially, there were two or three connectors, and now we have five or six. It would be nice if they added a few more connectors for third-party integration. There are multiple tools, but the clients may require more for their convenience."
"In terms of the ability to automate the creation of new accounts within it, it's still a bit laborious."
"The solution is very flexible, which is a plus, but I would say the implementation requires someone with knowledge and experience, as it can be easy to get lost in all the details. The implementation process could be streamlined and simplified. Though the complexity of the solution provides greater flexibility, it requires a lot of time to understand it fully."
"It would be very nice if it has an enterprise vault. Currently, it can interact with Password Safe, which is a separate solution and equivalent to Thycotic Secret Server. Instead of having Password Safe as a separate entity, they should combine it with BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access. They have done it in some way, but it is not an enterprise tech solution."
"At the moment, I don't see any major problems with it. If anything, they can just change the look and feel of the login screen because it looks too simple to me. It does not have so much information. When you get to the login screen of the solution, you should have more information. We also have BeyondTrust Remote Support, and the login page looks similar to BeyondTrust Privilege Remote Access. I would love to see more rich information on the login screen or landing page so that rather than having a regular sign-in screen or page where you just provide a username and password and get into the solution, you should have more insight into what the solution does. I've mentioned this to them every time I have had an opportunity."
"The integration of the solution with many platforms is a difficult area to manage and needs to be made easy."
"They could probably integrate a wizard or something like that to add a new use case. It could be something that makes it easier to add a new use case."
More BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access cons
"The initial setup and deployment can be cumbersome."
"Delinea Secret Server can improve by extending the monitoring policies and making the performance better."
"The challenge for me with Delinea is that I may not be able to pitch it to an account with a low budget for PAM."
"Having more detailed reporting would improve this solution."
"We find the documentation hard to understand."
"The UI needs improvement because the interface is a little clumsy."
"The setup for this solution is complex. I'm not going to lie, you need a specialized system security engineer to deploy it."
"One thing that I wish they would do is to have a Kubernetes or container-based deployment supported, but they're not quite there yet. Containerization or support for containerization would be fantastic."
More Delinea Secret Server cons
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is pretty expensive, but you get what you pay for and this is a great product."
"PRA was one of the cheapest solutions that we evaluated."
"I rate the product's pricing a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is high, and ten is low. It is an expensive product."
"PRA's pricing is competitive."
"Though the solution was a bit expensive, the overall pricing was average."
"Don't get into a situation where you are licensing per desktop or per person until you fully understand the licensing."
"My client found the solution a bit expensive but considering their use case and requirements, they didn't have any other choice. As far as I know, implementation and licensing are the only costs."
"I wish it was a little bit cheaper, but when a product is as solid as this, I understand what the cost does. It helps them to make sure it stays that way. If you want a reliable, solid product, you're going to pay more."
More BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access pricing and cost advice
"Most customers opt for a yearly license."
"The price of this solution is good."
"I would give the price a four on a scale from one to ten, with one being the cheapest and ten being the most expensive. We pay for the license on a yearly basis, and we paid for three years. It costs around 5000 a year."
"There is an annual license fee per user and the price is fair."
"The tool's pricing is expensive."
"When comparing the price of Thycotic Secret Server with other solutions it is reasonable."
"There are different plans and additional licensing costs that can be instituted for add-ons."
"Its price is okay. We don't compete on pricing. We seldom use price to win over our competitors. We prefer it this way because if we can sustain the price, we make more margin as well. We don't want the price to go down to the bottom where despite the win, there's no margin at all."

Hello Avinash, it all depends on the timeline and urgency of the project. If you need to deploy a PAM tool that focuses on standing privileges, stopping lateral movement, and incorporating Zero Standing Privileges as part of Zero Trust, then please consider looking at Remediant. I've worked for BeyondTrust and have gone up against the other big players such as Delinea, Centrify, CyberArk, and HashiCorp. They more or less all offer similar solutions, but looking at your current requirements, Remediant really excels in delivering a simple, yet very effective tool in a matter of days and weeks, not months and years.

Overview

BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access (formerly Bomgar Privileged Access) lets you secure, manage, and audit vendor and internal remote privileged access without a VPN.

Privileged Remote Access provides visibility and control over third-party vendor access, as well as internal remote access, enabling your organization to extend access to important assets, but without compromising security.

Features include:

- Privileged Access Control: Enforce least privilege by giving users the right level of access.

- Monitor Sessions: Control and monitor sessions using standard protocols for RDP, VNC, HTTP/S, and SSH connections.

- Reduce the Attack Surface: Reduce attacks by consolidating the tracking, approval, and auditing of privileged accounts in one place and by creating a single access pathway.

- Integrate with Password Management: Inject credentials directly into servers and systems with just one click, so users never need to know or see plain text credentials.

- Mobile & Web Consoles: Use mobile apps or web-based consoles anytime, anywhere.

- Audit & Compliance: Create audit trails, session forensics, and other reporting features by capturing detailed session data in real-time or post- session review, and provide attestation reports to prove compliance.

Secret Server is a fully-featured Privileged Access Management (PAM) solution available both on premise and in the cloud. It empowers security and IT ops teams to secure and manage all types of privileged accounts and offers the fastest time to value of any PAM solution.
