Application Identity Manger: Multiple Authentication Methods, Greater Accountability Cyber-Ark’s Application Identity Manager is the only solution to fully address the challenges of App2App identities, including eliminating hard-coded passwords. The solution also supports compliance with audit regulations for regularly replacing passwords and securely monitoring access across all systems, databases and applications. With this newest version, Cyber-Ark introduces the most secure and robust application authentication methods available on the market.
Compared to existing industry offerings, Cyber-Ark’s third generation Application Identity Manager technology offers a more flexible solution that provides multiple authentication methods, creating greater accountability and reliability as well dramatically simplifying large scale deployments. This is important when an organization is tasked with the elimination of hard-coded passwords, for example. Organizations can’t just eliminate passwords, they need to be sure the password is authentic – that it’s registered and legitimate while carefully and efficiently executing any change management processes. Cyber-Ark ensures that authentication process is thorough, credible and auditable without creating additional steps.
Enterprise Password Vault: New Workflow Features Add Flexibility and Agility Cyber-Ark’s Enterprise Password Vault enables organizations to secure, manage, automate and log all activities associated with privileged accounts. In most organizations, policies are used to define and enforce access workflows to privileged accounts, including central change management or emergency access based on ticketing system integrations. New workflow management enhancements allow easy integration with existing processes and create greater flexibility and agility to address current and future workflow questions, as well as different requirements from organizational units. Additionally, managers can better control privileged access down to specific time frames if necessary, resulting in greater security benefits and increased productivity for the IT staff.
Enhancements have also been made to address High Availability/Disaster Recovery requirements creating greater performance benefits that are especially important for large scale implementations, including those ranging from hundreds of thousands – to millions – of privileged accounts under management.
Privileged Session Manager: New Remote Sharing Benefits for Day-to-Day Use Introduced with the launch of the Privileged Identity Management Suite v5, Cyber-Ark’s Privileged Session Manager provides the only fully integrated and centralized solution for securing, controlling and monitoring privileged access by administrators and third party vendors to target machines and sensitive systems. Enhancements allow for greater ease-of-implementation for users, and include simplified file sharing between the end-user desktop and remote device during a privileged session for improving ease of day-to-day use.
