New Patents and Additional European Datacenter
Expand Product Innovation and Global Reach
CyberArk (NASDAQ: CYBR), the global leader in privileged access
management, today announced new advancements for CyberArk Alero
that enable remote users to securely access critical systems
managed by CyberArk from any mobile device – including
non-smartphones.
There are nearly 1.3 billion feature phones, or non-smartphones,
still in use around the globe, which can be attributed to a number
of factors including geography, government regulations and industry
preferences. Smartphone adoption use in emerging countries, for
example, is less than 45 percent and across Europe, employees avoid
using personal phones for work, putting the onus on organizations
to find alternate solutions, which may not always be a
smartphone.
By combining Zero Trust and multi-factor authentication,
CyberArk Alero is a leading SaaS-based solution that provides fast,
easy and secure privileged access for remote users based on a
passwordless, biometrics approach. In cases where smartphone use is
limited, Alero now supports SMS and push notifications, expanding
the number of remote users such as third party vendors, employees
and contractors who often require privileged access to sensitive
systems and data to do their jobs.
In addition, CyberArk also announced that it has added a new
datacenter in Frankfurt, Germany to address increasing global
demand for Alero. This datacenter will accompany existing
datacenters in North America – extending Alero’s global footprint.
Finally, furthering its investments in innovation, CyberArk has now
been granted six patents for a variety of Alero features including
biometric authentication.
“Since there is no one-size fits all approach to security,
CyberArk continues to evolve the capabilities of Alero and expand
the use cases the service addresses to support customers in all
industries and geographic locations,” said Gil Rapaport, vice
president, CyberArk Alero. “We are proud of the continued
investments focused on driving innovation and adoption of Alero by
delivering greater flexibility, access and value to our
customers.”
