Waarom zou je deze gids vertrouwen?
I’ve run BeyondTrust for eight months across Windows, Mac, and Linux machines and tested every feature covered here. This how to use BeyondTrust walkthrough comes from hands-on work, not vendor screenshots.

BeyondTrust is one of the most capable privileged access platforms available today.
But most teams stop at remote support and never touch the rest.
Deze handleiding laat u zien hoe u alle belangrijke functies kunt gebruiken.
Stap voor stap, met screenshots en professionele tips.
BeyondTrust-handleiding
This How to Use BeyondTrust tutorial walks through every module in order, from the first sign in to the advanced controls that keep auditors quiet.
Aan de slag met BeyondTrust
Before any module makes sense, finish this one-time setup.
Het duurt ongeveer drie minuten.
Here’s my personal experience with the platform first:
Laten we nu elke stap eens doornemen.
Stap 1: Maak uw account aan
Go to the BeyondTrust website and request access to your tenant.
Enterprise deployments are provisioned by sales, so you receive a URL and an invite rather than a public sign-up button.
✓ Controlepunt: Your invite email carries the console link and your first password.
Step 2: Sign In and Open the Console
Sign in at your tenant URL, then download the representative console for your device.
Windows, Mac, and Linux builds all exist, and a browser client covers everything else.
Zo ziet het dashboard eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: You should land on the main dashboard with your assigned modules listed.
Step 3: Lock Down the Login
Require multi-factor authentication or passwordless FIDO2 for every console login.
Then integrate Active Directory or LDAP so people reuse existing enterprise credentials instead of new ones.
✅ Klaar: Je bent klaar om een van de onderstaande functies te gebruiken.
Hoe u BeyondTrust Identity Security Insights kunt gebruiken
Identiteit Beveiliging Inzichten lets you spot identity risk across every cloud and on-prem account.
Hieronder leggen we stap voor stap uit hoe je het gebruikt.
Stap 1: Open het Insights-dashboard
Sign in to the BeyondTrust platform and open Identity Security Insights.
The dashboard loads with your current identity risk score at the top of the page.
Step 2: Connect Your Identity Sources
Connect Entra ID, Okta, or your on-prem domain from the integrations screen.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: A green check mark to visually show each source synced appears beside every connector.
Step 3: Review the Detections
Work the detection queue from highest severity down, then assign owners.
✅ Resultaat: You can see which privileged users hold standing access they never use.
💡 Pro-tip: Filter detections by ‘shared credentials’ first. Those accounts are the fastest way for an attacker to gain a foothold in your system.
How to Use BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Manager
Beheer van toegangsrechten op eindpunten lets you remove local admin rights while the apps people need still run.
Hieronder leggen we stap voor stap uit hoe je het gebruikt.
Step 1: Download and Deploy the Agent
Download the agent installer and push it to Windows, Mac, and Linux endpoints.
Run it in monitor mode first so nothing breaks on day one.
Step 2: Build Your Elevation Rules
Create rules that elevate approved apps instead of the whole user account.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: The console lists every blocked action, the computer it came from, and the rule that caught it.
Step 3: Switch Enforcement On
Move the policy from monitor to enforce once the rule set looks quiet.
✅ Resultaat: Local admin rights are gone, but nobody files a ticket about it.
💡 Pro-tip: Let monitor mode run for two full weeks. One week misses the month-end tools your finance team only opens on demand.
Hoe u BeyondTrust-ondersteuning op afstand kunt gebruiken
Ondersteuning op afstand lets you view and control a user’s computer screen securely and privately.
Hieronder leggen we stap voor stap uit hoe je het gebruikt.
Step 1: Open the Representative Console
Launch the representative console and sign in with your enterprise credentials.
Your queue, your jump clients, and your active session list all load here.
Step 2: Start a Session
Generate a session key and read it to the customer, or send a link.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: The customer sees a prompt to join, and their display appears in your console once they click accept.
Step 3: Take Control of the Screen
Request screen control, then run a file transfer or push a fix.
Users can see what you’re doing the whole time. Set up for unattended machines, one click connects you without user action, and you can elevate permissions by default without extra downloads.
✅ Resultaat: You can resolve the ticket without asking the customer to describe what they see.
💡 Pro-tip: The white chain icon in the console is a chain icon to symbolize the ability to copy a link to the session. Click it and a small note confirms the tekst has been copied.
Hoe u BeyondTrust-toegang op afstand met privileges kunt gebruiken
Bevoorrechte toegang op afstand lets you give vendors and admins VPN-less entry to critical systems.
Hieronder leggen we stap voor stap uit hoe je het gebruikt.
Step 1: Install Jump Clients
Install jump clients on target machines for persistent connections without VPNs.
Build a Mass Deployment installer under Jump > Jump Clients to cover a whole fleet at once.
Step 2: Set the Installer Options
Give the installer an expiration date and let it install at the user level.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: Each deployed client reports back online with its hostname and tags visible in the console.
Step 3: Connect and Work
Double click any jump client in the list to connect and start working.
✅ Resultaat: Third-party vendors reach only the boxes you listed, and nothing else on the network.
💡 Pro-tip: Tags beat folders. Tag jump clients by owner and site, then filter. Finding one server out of 400 takes seconds instead of scrolling.
How to Use BeyondTrust Entitle
Recht lets you grant just-in-time permissions that expire on their own.
Hieronder leggen we stap voor stap uit hoe je het gebruikt.
Step 1: Define Your Access Policies
Define access policies that specify when users can request access to a system.
Policies decide who approves, how long access lasts, and what gets logged.
Step 2: Turn On Dual Control
Set up dual control so an approver must grant the request before anyone connects.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: The request shows an approver name, a timer, and the exact systems it unlocks.
Step 3: Grant Access on Demand
Approve from Slack or Teams and let the grant expire on its own.
✅ Resultaat: Permissions exist only while the work happens, then disappear without a cleanup task.
💡 Pro-tip: Set the default duration to four hours, not eight. People who need longer will ask, and that second request is a useful signal.
Hoe gebruik je de BeyondTrust wachtwoordkluis?
Wachtwoordkluis lets you rotate and inject credentials without ever revealing the password.
Hieronder leggen we stap voor stap uit hoe je het gebruikt.
Step 1: Configure Functional Accounts
Configure functional accounts in the BeyondInsight and Password Safe console.
These are the service accounts that reach out and rotate everything else.
Step 2: Onboard Your Managed Systems
Onboard managed systems by linking them to the functional accounts you just created.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: Each managed system shows a last-rotation timestamp and the account that performed it.
Step 3: Assign Roles and Connect
Define access roles by assigning Password Safe roles in user management, then connect.
✅ Resultaat: Credential injection connects privileged users to servers without showing the real password.
💡 Pro-tip: Use the Privileged Web Access console for contractors. They get browser-based access with no client to install and no credentials to leak.
How to Use BeyondTrust Identity Risk Assessment
Identity Risk Assessment lets you score your identity attack surface before an attacker maps it.
Hieronder leggen we stap voor stap uit hoe je het gebruikt.
Step 1: Launch the Assessment
Start a new assessment and point it at the domain you want scanned.
A first pass on a mid-size directory finishes in under an hour.
Step 2: Scope the Environment
Add cloud tenants and service accounts so the picture covers more than Windows.
Zo ziet het eruit:
✓ Controlepunt: The summary page lists findings by severity with counts you can sort.
Stap 3: Sla het rapport op en deel het.
Save the finished report and send it to the security owners who fix things.
✅ Resultaat: You have a ranked list of identity gaps instead of a vague sense of risk.
💡 Pro-tip: Re-run the assessment the week after any acquisition. Merged directories are where dormant admin accounts quietly pile up.
Hoe BeyondTrust Cloud Security te gebruiken
Cloudbeveiliging lets you control entitlements across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
Hieronder leggen we stap voor stap uit hoe je het gebruikt.
Stap 1: Verbind uw cloudaccounts
Connect each cloud account with a read-only role from the integrations page.
Read-only is enough for discovery, so security teams rarely block the request.
Step 2: Review Entitlement Findings
Sort findings by unused permissions to see where privilege has drifted.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: Every connected account shows a permission gap score next to its name.
Step 3: Right-Size the Roles
Apply the suggested policy and confirm the workload still runs.
✅ Resultaat: Cloud roles match real usage, which is what most auditors ask you to prove.
💡 Pro-tip: Start with roles that have wildcard actions attached. Those few roles usually account for most of your unused permissions.
How to Use BeyondTrust Cyber Insurance
Cyber Insurance lets you meet insurer control requirements and document them for renewal.
Hieronder leggen we stap voor stap uit hoe je het gebruikt.
Step 1: Map the Required Controls
Match each insurer requirement to the BeyondTrust control that covers it.
Most questionnaires focus on MFA, admin rights, and session logging.
Step 2: Turn On Session Recording
Enable session recording and logging to monitor activity for compliance audits.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: Recorded sessions appear as searchable videos with keystroke logs attached.
Step 3: Export the Evidence
Pull searchable audit logs and session recordings into your renewal packet.
✅ Resultaat: Renewal questions get answered with exported evidence instead of a written promise.
💡 Pro-tip: Export a sample recording before the broker call. Showing one real audit trail moves the conversation faster than any policy document.
BeyondTrust Pro-tips en snelkoppelingen
After eight months of daily use, these are the shortcuts that saved me the most time.
Toetsenbord sneltoetsen
| Actie | Snelkoppeling |
|---|---|
| Start a new session | Ctrl + N |
| Switch to the next session tab | Ctrl + Tab |
| Send Ctrl + Alt + Del to the remote machine | Ctrl + Alt + Shift + Del |
| Toggle full screen on the remote display | F11 |
Verborgen functies die de meeste mensen over het hoofd zien
- AD Bridge: AD Bridge extends your Windows domain to Linux and Mac hosts, so one account and one policy cover the whole fleet.
- Rapportage API: Export session data to your SIEM through the Reporting API and keep forensic analysis in the tool your analysts already watch.
- Screen sharing defaults: Open Preferences after login and set automatic screen sharing requests, so the prompt fires the moment a session starts.
- Certified training: BeyondTrust publishes training videos and certified courses. Two hours there teaches more than a month of guessing.
Veelvoorkomende fouten bij BeyondTrust die je moet vermijden
Mistake #1: Giving standing access to critical systems
❌ Fout: Handing vendors permanent accounts because a temporary request feels slow to set up.
✅ Rechts: Use just-in-time access. Grant permissions only when needed and remove them right after the work ends.
Mistake #2: Skipping session recording
❌ Fout: Turning recording off to save disk, then having nothing to show when an incident review starts.
✅ Rechts: Record everything. BeyondTrust creates audit trails by recording video and logging keystrokes during each session.
Mistake #3: Rolling out enforcement on day one
❌ Fout: Enforcing least privilege before you understand which apps your teams open every week.
✅ Rechts: Run in monitor mode, read the report, then enforce. Set up least privilege so access is limited to required systems only.
Probleemoplossing bij BeyondTrust
Problem: The jump client shows offline
Oorzaak: The Mass Deployment installer expired, or the client installed at the user level and nobody is signed in.
Repareren: Rebuild the installer with a new expiration date and redeploy as a system service instead.
Problem: The customer never sees the session prompt
Oorzaak: The session key expired, or the link went to a browser that blocks the download.
Repareren: Generate a fresh key, or send the customer to your public portal page and have them join from there.
Problem: Credential injection fails on a managed system
Oorzaak: The functional account lost permissions on that host, so rotation and injection both stop.
Repareren: Re-test the functional account, confirm the domain account still has rights, then run a manual rotation.
