What principles guide CyberArk’s approach to security?

CyberArk's approach to security is fundamentally rooted in principles that prioritize safeguarding sensitive information and managing access effectively. The principles of least privilege access, strong authentication, and continuous monitoring are crucial because they collectively enhance an organization's defense against unauthorized access and potential breaches.

1. Least Privilege Access: This principle dictates that users should only have access to the information and resources necessary for their specific roles. By limiting access, organizations can mitigate the risk of insider threats and reduce the attack surface, making it more difficult for malicious actors to exploit vulnerabilities.

2. Strong Authentication: Implementing strong authentication methods, such as multi-factor authentication, adds an extra layer of security that is essential in verifying the identity of users attempting to access sensitive systems or data. This prevents unauthorized individuals from gaining access, even if they manage to obtain a user’s credentials.

3. Continuous Monitoring: This principle is vital for recognizing any suspicious activity or anomalies in real time. By continuously monitoring user activity and access patterns, organizations can quickly identify potential threats and respond proactively to mitigate risks, ensuring that their security posture remains robust over time.

The combination of these principles positions CyberArk as a leader in privileged access management, effectively enhancing an organization's overall security strategy while ensuring compliance with
