3. The CyberArk Privileged Account Security Solution
The CyberArk Privileged Account Security Solution is a comprehensive and integrated solution that helps organisations to secure, manage and monitor their privileged accounts.
1. The CyberArk Vault: This is a secure, centralised repository that stores and manages all privileged account passwords in an encrypted form. The passwords are only accessible to authorised users and applications via a secure, audited process.
2. The CyberArk Privileged Session Manager: This component provides a secure, virtualised environment for running privileged tasks. It ensures that all privileged activity is centrally monitored and audited.
3. The CyberArk Privilege Escalation Manager: This component helps to prevent privilege escalation attacks by providing a centralised and audited process for managing privilege escalation requests.
4. The CyberArk Application Identity Manager: This component helps organisations to secure and manage the application identities used by privileged users. It ensures that only authorised users have access to the applications and that all activity is centrally monitored and audited.
5. The CyberArk Privileged Threat Analytics: This component uses big data and machine learning techniques to analyse privileged account activity and identify potential threats. It provides real-time alerts to help organisations to take proactive action to mitigate risks.
4. The CyberArk Shared Account Password Management Solution
The CyberArk Shared Account Password Management Solution is a comprehensive solution that helps organizations to securely manage and rotate shared account passwords. The solution consists of four main components:
The Password Vault – This is where all of the shared account passwords are stored. The passwords are encrypted and can only be accessed by authorized users.
The Password Rotator – This component automatically rotates the shared account passwords on a regular basis. This ensures that the passwords are always fresh and reduces the likelihood of them being compromised.
The Password Auditor – This component auditors the usage of the shared account passwords.This information can be used to identify potential security risks.
The Password Manager – This component is responsible for managing the shared account passwords. It allows authorized users to add, delete, and modify passwords.
