Identity Security Centered on Intelligent Privilege Controls Offers Customers a Modern Way to Secure All Identities and Assets, Anywhere

BOSTON โ€“ CyberArk Impact 2022 โ€“ July 13, 2022ย โ€“ย CyberArkย (NASDAQ:ย CYBR),ย theย global leader inย Identity Security, is making several announcements today at theย CyberArk Impact 2022ย event that put cybersecurity innovation at the epicenter of identity protection. Continuing to define and lead the Identity Security market, only CyberArk can deliver comprehensive advancements in key areas that help customers enableย Zero Trust, such asย privileged access management, identity management, cloud privilege security and secrets management, to give organisations the confidence they need to accelerate business transformation with less risk.

Organisations continue to play a difficult balancing game. They must manage down cybersecurity debt brought on by rapid moves to the cloud and SaaS adoption, which create a surge in identities, while bolstering defenses to brace for coming waves ofย attacker sophisticationย andย new, unrelentingย attackย volume โ€“ often in the form ofย ransomwareย andย theย exploitation of software supply chain weaknesses. Today, for every human identity there areย 45ย machine identitiesย and over half of an organisationโ€™s workforce has access to sensitive corporate data. These human and machine identities represent an expanded attack surface that adds pressure to mounting cybersecurity insurance and compliance requirements.

These challenges call for advanced Identity Security solutions architected for the evolving threat landscape with the ability toย enforce least privilege.ย Centered on intelligent privilege controls, Identity Security seamlessly secures access for all identities, and flexibly automates the identity lifecycle, with continuous threat detection and protection โ€“ all with a unified approach.

โ€œTwo years ago at our CyberArk Impact event, we put a stake in the ground โ€“ detailing our vision and strategy for Identity Security. Since then, weโ€™ve made great progress inย realising this vision. We have firmly established the category and consistently executed on our roadmap โ€“ raising the bar for innovation with a comprehensive Identity Security platform,โ€ said Udi Mokady, founder, chairman and CEO, CyberArk. โ€œIdentity Security is now the standard for managing growth and reducing risk without compromise, and CyberArk is the leader. Our approach to Identity Security, centered on intelligent privilege controls, means customers can confidently drive greater cyber resilience built on Zero Trust.โ€

Advancing Business Critical Identity Security

Built for the dynamic enterprise, the CyberArk Identity Security Platform enables secure access for any identity, human or machine, to any resource or environment from anywhere using any device. In addition to continued innovation across its self-hosted solutions and expanding SaaS portfolio ofย privileged access management,ย workforce and customer access, and endpoint privilege securityย  offerings, CyberArk announced key advancements in these core areas:

Identity Managementย 

  • CyberArk Identity Flowsย automates identity management tasks through no-code / low-code app integrations and workflows for identity data, processes and events. Withย Identity Flows, users can take actions and make decisions from a single location, improving productivity and user experience. Identity Flows is built on technology from the acquisition of Aapi.io. CyberArk acquired Aapi.io in March 2022 to bolster Identity Lifecycle Management capabilities and broaden Identity Automation and Orchestration capabilitiesย across its Identity Security Platform.
  • CyberArk Identity Complianceย makes it easier for organisations to enforce and demonstrate compliance by automating the access provisioning lifecycle, streamlining access certifications and providing comprehensive identity analytics. Leveraging leading identity lifecycle and privilege entitlements management features, theย Identity Complianceย solution can help organisations strengthen their security posture, enforce least privilege and comply with a growing number of regulatory requirements.โ€‹

Cloud Privilege Securityย 

  • CyberArk Secure Cloud Accessย provisions Just-in-Time, least privilege access to cloud consoles, command lines and services, helping implement Zero Trust initiatives by reducing the risk of compromised privileged sessions for DevOps and cloud operations teams. Withย Secure Cloud Access, privileged sessions are provisioned with only the required permissions for the task at hand, protected from browser hijacking, and recorded to help satisfy audit and compliance. Only CyberArk helps secure both standing and Just-in-Time access across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, enabling secure digital transformation initiatives.

Secrets Management

  • CyberArk Secrets Hubย makes it easier for developersย in hybrid environments to consume secretsย on Amazon Web Services (AWS) using AWS Secrets Manager, while security managers retain centralised control and the ability to enforce unified policies over secrets using existing processes and infrastructure. (See โ€œCyberArk Launches Secrets Hub for AWS Secrets Managerโ€ for more details).

โ€œThe continued strong adoption of the CyberArk Identity Security platform and enthusiasm from customers and partners has been tremendous. The new offerings we announced today are for all those organisations that understand that protecting identities is not only good for business, it also needs to be priority #1 when it comes to cybersecurity,โ€ said Chen Bitan, chief product officer at CyberArk.

The CyberArk platform is based on a set of foundational shared services includingย Identity Security Intelligence. Thisย new Identity Security Intelligenceย service provides continuous identity threat detection and prevention by automatically detecting anomalous user behavior and privileged access misuse for both workforce and privileged users. Additional shared services enabling operational efficiencies include a single Admin Portal with an improved user experience,ย Identity Administration, which provides unified Authentication and Authorisation, and Unified Audit that will centrally collect audit data for both workforce and privileged user sessions.

โ€œTodayโ€™s announcements from CyberArk reflect the growing need many organisations face โ€“ the need to double down on security-first identity protection to protect the known โ€“ and unknown โ€“ identities that exist across hybrid IT environments,โ€ said Jack Poller, senior analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group. โ€œBy clearly defining the Identity Security category and focusing on protecting identities where they matter most โ€“ from the cloud and development environments to the desktop โ€“ we believe CyberArk is truly delivering value where their customers need it most.โ€

These latest CyberArk Identity Security Platform advancements will be available by the end of 2022.
