BeyondTrust Helps Organizations Identify Potentially Risky Accounts with the Privilege Discovery and Reporting Tool

New, free tool helps to find, profile and report on privilege

security gaps

PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BeyondTrust,

the leading cyber security company dedicated to preventing privilege

abuse and stopping unauthorized access, today announced the new free

PowerBroker Privilege Discovery and Reporting Tool (DART). Privilege

DART scans the IT infrastructure to find, profile and report on user

credentials and SSH keys to help security teams quickly identify and

take control of privileged account risks.

Unsecured privileged accounts place organizations at risk for a

potentially costly data breach. In fact, according to the 2016 Verizon

Data Breach Investigations Report, legitimate user credentials were used

in most data breaches, with some 63% of them using weak, default, or

stolen passwords. But most organizations don’t have the time, budget or

manpower to quickly scan their environments to determine where their

biggest privilege account risks might be. Privilege DART is a free

utility that quickly finds, profiles and reports on user accounts, SSH

keys, default or hard-coded passwords, assets and more across any sized

IT environment. Able to run on any desktop, the Privilege DART displays

key metrics in an easy-to-read dashboard, and provides simple reporting

for executive stakeholders and auditors.

Key capabilities and benefits include:

Finds and counts user accounts, local accounts, SSH keys, Windows and
Linux groups, default and hard-coded passwords, and more, reducing
risk and ensuring that no accounts, users, or assets are left
unsecured.
Displays high-level metrics on password strength, age and other key
indicators of risk in a dashboard format for fast review and analysis
by stakeholders.
Generates an easy-to-read, customized HTML or Excel-based report,
helping security leaders make informed decisions on how to immediately
reduce the risks to privileged access.
Provides the ability to export data via XML into PowerBroker Password
Safe for complete privileged account management.
