From the Delinea team

This summer, I’m traveling with my children and my parents to England – the land of my grandmother’s birth and upbringing. We are planning to see many things while we are there – the British Museum, the Tate Gallery, Buckingham Place, the White Tower, and so much more. In this spirit, I was thinking of all the wonderful castles I’ve seen over the years – while also thinking about how to frame this blog for you - our Server Suite and Cloud Suite customers -  about the challenges and limitations you face – and to share a bit about how things are changing for the good! And that’s how I started to ponder … at what point does the protective fortress (of Server PAM) become so difficult t

Hello friends! We’ve a favor to ask for any of you who use our apps:Delinea Mobile - our vaulting app Delinea Authenticator - our native auth app Delinea Platform - Our admin Platform appWould you please write a review on the app(s) you use in the Mobile App store? We understandably received some rough reviews for Delinea Mobile and Authenticator in their early days. However, we took the feedback and amped those up considerably.

If you are a Delinea customer that also has Microsoft Entra Permissions Management (MEPM), please read on …What’s changing with MEPM? You might have already been informed that Microsoft has announced that it is retiring Microsoft Entra Permissions Management (MEPM), and they are taking it end of support on October 1, 2025. Additionally, new purchases of MEPM will be unavailable starting April 1, 2025.To help their customers transition away from MEPM, Microsoft has partnered with Delinea as a Preferred Partner, as Delinea offers functionality comparable to that currently delivered with MEPM. ​@Brigid_Colver and I wanted to make sure customers in Secret Society were aware of this shift - and aware that Delinea can help support you through this transition.Delinea can help fill the gap Delinea offers a cloud-native, fully Microsoft-compatible Cloud Infrastruct

What are y’all doing for Halloween? Pet costumes? Kid costumes? Office party costumes? I took my kids to “Truck or Treat” (exactly like it sounds, the county brings its coolest trucks together in a big parking lot, decorates them with spiders and skeletons, and the operators hand out candy -- it’s amazing) and they were:a witch a scarecrow a dinosaur pirate (NOT a pirate dinosaur) and a pumpkinWould love to hear what others do if you celebrate Halloween, Day of the Dead, all souls day, etc.Also: for others of you with young kids, Muppets Haunted Mansion is an amazing movie.

Just curious whether/how your teams are calling attention to Cybersecurity Awareness Month for your businesses. Any good suggestions to share out? Our social team has been focusing on weekly themes for the everyday person -- overcommunicating the Why behind:password protection MFA recognizing phishing updating softwareFor YOU we are working on setting up an Office Hours with Delinea’s Director of Security at end of this month so you can ask questions. I’ll post it to the Events section as soon as it’s confirmed.

Hey all! Your friendly Renewals leader here at Delinea. As we close in on the end of the year, @brigid.colver (who heads up Secret Society) asked me to go over guidance for renewing early to avoid the holiday rush.She was right to tap me on the shoulder -- we process an extremely high volume of both renewals and new business transactions in the final month of the year. Of course, this is also a time when many of our contacts at companies like yours and many of our own staff are taking well-deserved time off to spend with their families during the last two weeks of the year. If your organization has any renewing products this quarter and wants to avoid the holiday madness, read on.We are working to get ahead of as many year end and e

We’ve had a request from our Product Management team for input. Would any of you -- our fine community members -- be interested in connecting directly with a member of the PM team to discuss use cases and interests? This will be especially relevant for cloud or platform customers. Feel free to comment here or private message me if you’re interested in sharing your PoV. Here’s the ask from our team member: I’m one of the Product Managers on the Privileged Control for Cloud Entitlements and Identity Threat Protection team (fka Authomize), currently working on our upcoming integration with Active Directory (AD). My objective is to gather insights on what might be of particular interest to Delinea customers regarding this integration. Would it be possible to connect with one or two customers to discuss potential use cases for this integration? 

Along with a plethora of pumpkin spice lattes and profusion of glorious mums, Halloween is bearing down upon us: At the moment, I’m envisioning security wizards – and sorceresses - with crystal balls trying to figure out how to protect their organization from the gremlins that are trying to compromise their cloud environments. Even though we’ve come a long way over the years, the enduring question of how to establish and maintain identity security in cloud environments remains – even as goblins trying to penetrate the cloud. Let’s take a quick look at how things were, and how things are going.  Where we’ve been …and where we are todayScene: 5 years ago. A customer user group meeting. Las Vegas (where else, folks?)Customers are sitting together in a packed room, and we ask the security specialists in attendance: “What is your top priority is over the next 3 years?”90% of customer hands go up for movi
