Company Takes Top Spot in Best Privileged Access Management Solution
and Best Continuous Monitoring and Mitigation System Categories
NEWTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 16, 2015--
CyberArk (NASDAQ:CYBR),
the company that protects organizations from cyber
attacks that have made their way inside the network perimeter, today
announced it was named a winner in the 2015
GSN Homeland Security Awards in two categories: Best Privileged
Access Management Solution and Best Continuous Monitoring and Mitigation
System.
The CyberArk Privileged Account Security Solution helps government
organizations prevent the theft, abuse and misuse of privileged
credentials in advanced cyber attacks, while better containing threats
and limiting damage. CyberArk is the only vendor that has achieved Common
Criteria certification for a comprehensive Privileged Account
Security solution.
“The Federal government and its agencies have long been the target of
cyber attacks. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) breach was
a clear signal for a new security approach that presumes attackers have
already breached the perimeter, and reinforces the need for a layer of
security that protects the network from the inside out,” said John
Worrall, chief marketing officer, CyberArk. “These awards highlight
CyberArk’s commitment to helping Federal and state agencies identify
privileged credential vulnerabilities and mitigate the risk of a
potential OPM-style network compromise.”
Winning for the Best Privileged Access Management Solution, the CyberArk
Privileged Account Security Solution identifies existing privileged
credentials across networks, makes sure those credentials are locked
down and secure, and uses continuous monitoring of privileged account
credentials to detect anomalous behavior and stop an attack early in the
cycle.
CyberArk Privileged
Threat Analytics, part of the CyberArk Privileged Account Security
Solution, won for the Best Continuous Monitoring and Mitigation System.
CyberArk’s expert system for privileged account security intelligence
provides targeted, immediately actionable threat alerts by identifying
previously undetectable malicious privileged user and account activity.
This solution enables incident response teams to identify an attack in
real time, and take the necessary steps to mitigate the attack and
reduce damage.
