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

"Support is helpful."

"I like the one-way hash, as well as the ability to store it in the cloud and access it from anywhere."

"I like that it is Windows-based. It is good that primarily, it is not an appliance. Some of the other applications in the space, such as a Quest Software CPAM or a Safeguard, are appliances, so you can't deploy the ends of them. With Thycotic, you can either install your Temporal Protection module physically in the VM host, or you can use BouncyCastle for high-security module capabilities."

"It offers the possibility of secure administration of hardware devices, as well as Linux systems administration from a Windows environment."

"What I like best about this product is the interface."

"There has been no downtime this year."

"The solution is good."

"Its technical support is good."

More Delinea Secret Server pros

"The ability to provide just-in-time privileged access and set specific parameters for access duration is highly beneficial."

"The integration with Azure Identity is a significant advantage, as it allows for seamless automation and power app integration."

Cons

"I would like to see improvement with the integration with Azure Active Directory. This would mean that we can have support on multiple platforms such as Windows, Linux, and Mac."

"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."

"Delinea Secret Server needs to improve its reporting."

"One of the product areas that could be improved is the ease of handling SSL certificates within the application."

"There could be tweaks here and there. For example, instead of going to one main function to do this and another main function to do that, the solution could remap the user interface so that a person only has to go through one function. The way that function branches off should make a bit more sense."

"In terms of what could be improved, the whole thing with distributed engines, et cetera, is a little bit tricky."

"The UI needs improvement because the interface is a little clumsy."

"The API is no good."

More Delinea Secret Server cons

"Microsoft Purview Privileged Access Management could improve integration with multiple cloud environments."

"There's room for improvement in Microsoft's documentation, as it often lacks clarity."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"The pricing is standard in this business and we have no complaints about it."

"It is very expensive, and its price should be lower."

"There is an annual license needed to use Delinea Secret Server."

"Pricing is comparable to competing products."

"There is an annual license fee per user and the price is fair."

"They are priced quite well."

"It isn't terribly expensive."

Overview

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.

Privileged access management allows granular access control over privileged admin tasks in Office 365. It can help protect your organization from breaches that use existing privileged admin accounts with standing access to sensitive data or access to critical configuration settings. Privileged access management requires users to request just-in-time access to complete elevated and privileged tasks through a highly scoped and time-bounded approval workflow. This configuration gives users just-enough-access to perform the task at hand, without risking exposure of sensitive data or critical configuration settings. Enabling privileged access management in Microsoft 365 allows your organization to operate with zero standing privileges and provide a layer of defense against standing administrative access vulnerabilities.
