Support Business Continuity Initiatives By
Providing Secure, Simple Privileged Access to Critical Systems
CyberArk (NASDAQ: CYBR), the global leader in privileged access
management, today announced expanded capabilities of CyberArk Alero
to support emerging business continuity priorities. Building on its
core use case of enabling privileged access for remote vendors,
Alero, a SaaS-based solution combining Zero Trust access and
biometric multi-factor authentication, now allows remote employees
simple and secure access to critical systems managed by
CyberArk.
Securing access for remote workers is a critical element of
business continuity strategies. According to Forrester, 88 percent
of organizations cite provisioning employees with remote access
technologies so they can work remotely from a location with
internet access as a key workforce continuity/recovery
strategy.1
Additionally in just the last five years, remote work has grown
44 percent representing a clear need for organizations to ensure
these workers, particularly those who require privileged access,
can perform their jobs without disruption. The rise in employees
working from home or other locations has security ramifications,
and many organizations do not have the appropriate technology,
infrastructure or internal resources to effectively manage
risk.
“At IDB, we pride ourselves on driving innovation and are always
looking for ways we can better address the changing needs of our
employees and customers,” said Dave Smithers EVP, CIO & COO at
IDBBANK. “We originally adopted CyberArk Alero to help us easily
provision and secure privileged access for third party vendors.
Expanding this capability to include remote employees is an
exciting development – especially in today’s environment where work
often needs to happen beyond our office walls. Knowing our remote
users are secured gives us the confidence to be agile in any
situation.”
CyberArk Alero is an industry leading solution designed to
provide fast, easy and secure privileged access to remote users
including third party vendors, employees and contractors. CyberArk
is the first and only vendor to combine Zero Trust access,
biometric authentication and just-in-time provisioning without the
use of VPNs, agents or passwords in one solution. Unlike VPN-based
solutions, CyberArk Alero removes the need to deploy additional
infrastructure or hardware and provides granular, role-based access
to critical internal systems regardless of user type, target system
or environment.
“As organizations continue to embrace the benefits of remote
work – be it out of necessity or simply offering employees
flexibility – it’s critical they adopt an integrated and
standardized method for workers and vendors to securely access the
critical internal systems necessary to keep business up and
running,” said Gil Rapaport, vice president, CyberArk Alero. “By
extending the capabilities of CyberArk Alero to now include remote
employees, organizations can take advantage of the benefits of
continued productivity while simultaneously mitigating security
risks and reducing operational complexity.”
