Securing Administrative Passwords
Identity Management Tools, such as Single Sign-On and Directories are examples of important building blocks in any organization's Identity Management infrastructure. However, these tools are only geared towards individual users. An additional solution for privileged users should be deployed to complement the Identity Management Infrastructure.
Cyber-Ark’s Suite of products can manage Identity Management for Privileged Accounts by providing:
- Frequent and automatic password changes of shared privileged accounts
- Strong auditing of privileged passwords usage to ensure accountability
- Secured long term storage and automatic failover to eliminate risks of loss and to ensure availability during disaster recovery
- Removing clear text passwords embedded in scripts, and automatically changing them according to corporate policy
