New Cloud Automation Capabilities Enable Organizations to Begin
Securing Privileged Accounts in Amazon Web Services (AWS) in 15 Minutes
NEWTON, Mass. & PETACH TIKVA, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 4, 2017--
CyberArk
(NASDAQ: CYBR),
the company that protects organizations from cyber
attacks that have made their way inside the network perimeter, today
announced cloud automation capabilities that enable customers to protect
against advanced security threats in dynamic cloud environments.
CyberArk’s cloud
automation capabilities incorporate the CyberArk AMIs (Amazon
Machine Images) and AWS CloudFormation templates that are specifically
optimized for AWS environments.
Today’s announcement builds on existing CyberArk cloud
security capabilities, including an integration with Amazon
Inspector to simplify the discovery and prioritization of privileged
account risk, enhanced AWS Access Key protection, as well as support for
AWS Security Token Service to allow secure single sign-on to the AWS
Management Console.
Security in a Cloud-First World
Enterprises, especially those adopting cloud-first strategies to
transform their business, increasingly recognize that it is their
responsibility to secure their applications and other assets in the
cloud. Enterprises migrating to the cloud also want an easy way to
consistently enforce security policies – on-premises, in the cloud and
across DevOps
pipelines.
The CyberArk
Privileged Account Security Solution enables protection of cloud
assets at each stage of an organization’s cloud journey. CyberArk
delivers a complete solution to help secure privileged
user and application credentials used to manage public cloud
vendors’ management consoles, configure virtual infrastructure, enable
applications to connect with sensitive assets, and dynamically scale
elastic production environments – all critical to effective enterprise
cloud security strategies.
For example, to meet increasing business demands while reducing costs, a
European-based financial services organization recently selected
CyberArk to help support its strategy to evolve from a hybrid
architecture model to being fully deployed in the cloud. The
organization uses CyberArk to manage privileged
access to the AWS Management Console, which in turn manages the full
CyberArk environment on AWS.
“This release further expands CyberArk’s cloud security leadership.
CyberArk is a trusted partner that expertly supports customers’ cloud
migration strategies by incorporating security from the start, and helps
better protect cloud assets in alignment with existing controls and
security policies,” said Roy Adar, senior vice president, product
management, CyberArk. “As forward-looking organizations embrace the
cloud to transform and accelerate key business and customer facing
processes, they choose CyberArk because they recognize the unparalleled,
proven flexibility, scalability and protection that only CyberArk can
deliver across enterprise environments.”

With its flexible, modular architecture, the CyberArk Privileged Account
Security Solution enables customers to start securing privileged
accounts in as little as 15 minutes. The CyberArk solution was
