Management and Continuous Monitoring and Mitigation
NEWTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 30, 2017--
CyberArk
(NASDAQ: CYBR),
the company that protects organizations from cyber
attacks that have made their way inside the network perimeter, today
announced it has been named a 2016 Government Security News (GSN)
Homeland Security Awards winner.
GSN’s
8th Annual Homeland Security Awards Program recognizes the most
innovative, important technologies and strategies by U.S. and
International IT and cyber security companies, physical security
companies and federal, state, county and municipal government agencies.
CyberArk was named a winner in the Best Continuous Monitoring and
Mitigation Solution category and a finalist for the Best Physical
Logical Privileged Access Management Solution.
The CyberArk
Privileged Account Security Solution offers proactive protection of
privileged credentials while also enabling federal government
organizations to respond to advanced cyber threats. Proactive protection
includes the secure storage and management of privileged
credentials, monitoring and isolation of privileged account
sessions, and the enforcement of least
privilege and application control at the endpoint. The CyberArk
solution also features targeted
analytics and the ability to analyze network traffic to better
detect indications of an attack early in the lifecycle, including
credential theft, lateral movement and privilege escalation. CyberArk
enables incident response teams to quickly identify threats and shut
down in-progress attacks.
“Privileged account protection and threat detection are at the center of
many federal requirements designed to secure agencies from both internal
and external threats,” said Kevin Corbett, director of U.S. Federal
Business at CyberArk. “This award program highlights the important work
that needs to be done to help federal government agencies identify and
respond to potential threats and harden their IT infrastructure through
adopting a combination of key practices including securing, monitoring
and protecting privileged credentials. CyberArk is proud to be
recognized by GSN and to be a valued security partner across the U.S.
federal government.”
CyberArk is committed to helping federal government agencies and global
enterprises protect and secure privileged accounts. This award follows
the CyberArk Privileged Account Security Solution receiving the U.S.
Army Certificate of Networthiness (Army CoN) and being added to the
U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) Unified Capabilities Approved Products
List (UC
APL). CyberArk was granted Common
Criteria Evaluation Assurance Level EAL 2+ in 2015. CyberArk can
help meet security and compliance requirements for Federal government
organizations including FISMA, NIST SP 800-53, Department of Homeland
Security Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) Program, NERC-CIP
