The Delinea Server Suite is an integrated family of directory-based authentication, privileged access, privileged elevation, and audit & monitoring solutions. It secures cross-platform environments and strengthens regulatory compliance initiatives.

This integrated solution helps you improve IT efficiency, strengthen regulatory compliance initiatives, and centrally secure your heterogeneous computing environment.

Known Issues
-
After applying the February 14, 2023, Microsoft Update (KB5022842 (OS Build 20348.1547)) on a Virtualized Windows Server 2022 with Secure Boot Enabled server will become unusable.
This issue is reproducible without any Delinea products installed on the Windows Server 2022 system.
The issue arises on the second reboot after installing Microsoft update KB5022842 on Windows Server 2022 that is running on VMWare vSphere ESXi 6.7 U2/U3 or vSphere ESXi 7.0.x. Delinea recommends as a best practice to create system restore points prior to doing any upgrades, patches or system change.
