In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, understanding and implementing effective cybersecurity strategies is more critical than ever. With the rise of buzzwords like JIT, it's essential to clarify its key components to help you strengthen your cybersecurity posture. 1. Minimize Access:Implement the principle of least privilege by granting users access only to the information and systems they need. This limits potential damage from insider threats and breaches. 2. Regular Updates and Patching:Keep all software and systems up to date. Regular updates and patches address vulnerabilities and protect against evolving threats. Make it a habit to check for updates regularly. 3. Monitor and Audit Access:Continuous monitoring of who accesses your systems is crucial. Use automated tools to maintain visibility over user activities and detect any unusual behavior early.

Using AI to enhance human interaction is precisely what BeyondTrust's Customer Success Managers (CSMs) are doing. Customers meeting with a member of the CSM team are likely familiar with Gong, the BeyondTrust Notetaker. However, the ways in which the team leverages this AI tool might be less well-known. Although Gong is relatively new to the CSM team, it has quickly proven its value, helping us enhance our service. Cadence calls are a key component of the CSM team’s interactions, whether they occur weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly. During these calls, your CSM arrives prepared with updates on events, important announcements, support ticket statuses, and a desire to understand your needs from BeyondTrust. The primary use of Gong for a CSM is to document the discussion, allowing them to focus on the conversation and engage in critical thinking. Gong generates highlights of the call and enables us to revisit specific details later. Additionally, it produces a report of actio

It is no secret that BeyondTrust loves to send surveys to our customers. In a world where we are often inundated with surveys or asked for feedback by vendors, there is a belief that the survey responses are sent to an abyss and never seen or referenced by a live person. What you may not know is how seriously BeyondTrust takes the surveys we ask of our customers. A great deal of consideration is put into our surveys- the timing, the personal responses by BeyondTrust CSMs, feedback follow up, and the analysis. The survey responses are analyzed by product, department, sentiment, any way you can imagine. The information is then shared throughout BeyondTrust- every department head along with our Executive Leadership Team. Because of this, BeyondTrust would like to share the importance of the most common surveys you may find in your inbox. Customer Satisfaction Survey- These are emailed to our customers each quarter.
