In Remote Support and Privileged Remote Access, some binaries will undergo a name change. Client name changes for Windows took place in 25.1. In 25.2, files for Mac/Linux clients as well as Jumpoints for all operating systems will be changed. In addition, directory name changes will take place, changing from Bomgar, to BeyondTrust for new installations. Existing installations will not be impacted. No action is necessary for these changes to occur, but if you are currently whitelisting directories or binaries by name with your endpoint security, you may need to update your whitelist configuration to accommodate the name changes.

Best Practices for Remote Support and Privileged Remote Access Here are a few best practices for delivering secure and efficient remote support. Following these guidelines can help improve performance, reduce risk, and maintain compliance. Review the supported version lifecycle at least once a year and keep up to date. Having older software, more than two years behind, may make it more complex to get to the latest version. In some cases, a new appliance will need to be created. Refer to How to upgrade or update version 20.1.x and lower. If self-hosted, stay up-to-date with current releases and activate the Apply Critical Updates Automatically option found in the /appliance interface. For instructions, refer to Automatic critical update options in /appliance. Consider using an external authentication security providers (for example, SAML) over local accounts, and be sure to delete accounts not in use. For more information, refer to PRA Security providers or RS Security providers.
Create more than one Integration with Service now ITSM tool, if a customer has different entities and has different ITSM tools like Servicenow and Fresh Desk.

We're extracting the team activity reports and add this to our BI reporting to monitor usage.On the event type we see several events and I'm looking to filter the ones to connect and disconnect from a session.I think the below are the ones that I'm looking for but not sure: Conference Member Added -> connecting to a workstation Conference Member Departed -> disconnecting from a workstation Am I correct in this assumption?

Hello, we have set up PRA web jump for multiple websites including some Cisco device GUIs. With Cisco DNA / Catalyst center website it is timing out. This website uses HTML tags that change for each page refresh. Based on the jump point logs , PRA successfully detects the tags for username, password and submit button but at the end it gives credential injection timed out error. We have the timeout set to max value of 30 seconds. PRA version is 23.1.2. If we select no credential the website opens fine as PRA web jump. I can log in by manually entering the password. The webpages before and after login are different\. (I see a KB that says it may timeout of URL doesnt chnage after password injection). I read in another post that the ‘inject credentials in current URL’ doesn’t work for web-jumps .Is there any workaround method using PRA. Like RDP to a server , open browser and click on inject creds button. Or anything needs to be changed in web jump backend config on jump-point which can p
Hi everyone,I have an problem when configuring Jump Approval in my PRA and I would like to know if it’s a bug or if I missed something.I've created a Jump Policy requiring users to request approval to access machines.In the approvers, I've set up a team called the “IT Team” and I've indicated that they can't approve their own requests.There are two members in “IT Team”.When one of the members tries to connect to a machine, a form asks him to enter a reason and a duration. In the Remote Access Console, the user who made the request does not see any notification and cannot self-approve. The second team member can. It works in the other way round.The problem here is that the user who made the request, who normally can't self-approve, still receives an approval link by e-mail, and this link works. The parameter is half-operational, so. Please note that these are Entra users and not local users of the solution (I'm pointing this out even though I don't think it's related).
Has anybody got any experience of upgrading PRA from 23.3.3 to 25.1.2 with regards to the jumpclient on Windows 2008R2 and 2012R2. We have a few legacy servers which for various reasons we don’t want to switch to RDP Jumps. I appreciate running the jumpclient on 2008R2 and 2012R2 is officially unsupported but I’d be interest if anyone has the experience of running the client on these OS’s.
Hello! is there any documentation that includes example parameters/strings that should be used while launching apps using PRA BT desktop agent.
