CyberArk Conjur and Puppet Improve Visibility, Flexibility and
Security Across DevOps Workflows
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 12, 2017--
PuppetConf 2017 – CyberArk
(NASDAQ: CYBR),
the undisputed leader in Privileged Account Security and company that
protects organizations from cyber attacks across the enterprise, into
the cloud and throughout the DevOps pipeline, today announced its
partnership with Puppet as an Advanced
Technology Partner. Together, CyberArk and Puppet are working
together to create supported modules that provide automated,
enterprise-grade protection of secrets and are seamlessly integrated
with Puppet’s configuration automation, enabling secure, high-velocity DevOps
workflows.
CyberArk integrates with Puppet to automate DevOps secrets protection
and improve visibility and security across DevOps workflow.
In dynamic DevOps environments, tools, scripts and applications/services
are constantly being created, used and disabled. Each step requires
secrets, including SSH/API keys, passwords and certificates, which
regularly go unchanged or revoked, or may not be available for a range
of reasons, making the application unable to run or run properly.
Because these accounts provide access to sensitive resources, they are a
prime target for an external attacker or malicious insider to facilitate
enterprise-wide cyber attacks.
CyberArk Conjur is the only platform-independent secrets
management solution that allows organizations to integrate secrets
management and machine identity security into their projects with
minimal effort. CyberArk Conjur is specifically architected for
containerized environments and can be deployed on premises or to any
cloud at massive scale.
“This integration balances security and productivity by allowing Puppet
users to continue to work within the familiar Puppet interface to secure
and manage secrets used by Puppet Masters, nodes and users,” said Tim
Zonca, vice president of business development, Puppet. “The integrated
solution provides security with a strong authentication mechanism for
machines before granting secrets, as well as implementing least
privilege for nodes.”
CyberArk Conjur allows DevOps teams to integrate security
best practices into their cloud-native application development
projects with ease, while giving security teams assurance that security
and compliance best practices are being applied to these dynamic
environments, without creating new security silos.
“The CyberArk Conjur module for Puppet is designed with both DevOps
users and security teams in mind. It provides visibility and flexibility
for Puppet secrets workflows and users can view and manage host accounts
maintained by Puppet,” said Adam Bosnian, executive vice president,
global business development, CyberArk. “The integration with Puppet
furthers CyberArk’s commitment to automating secrets protection and
makes it easier for organizations to recognize the benefits of using
Puppet to improve productivity without changing the way developers work.”
As part of this integration, Puppet is also joining the CyberArk
global technology partner program that brings together enterprise
software, IT security and service providers to build on the power of
privileged account security to better protect customers from cyber
threats across multi-platform environments. CyberArk recently joined
Puppet’s Technology Alliance Partner Program (TAPP).
