CyberArk announced CyberArk Cloud Entitlements Manager, a privilege-based, artificial intelligence-powered service designed to strengthen the security of cloud environments.

Through continuous monitoring of cloud access, CyberArk enforces least privilege by identifying and removing excessive cloud permissions that can leave organizations vulnerable - significantly reducing risk and improving overall visibility and security.

"Cloud adoption has massively accelerated, but as new environments and cloud services are deployed, thousands of identity-based permissions are created - many of which go overlooked," said Chen Bitan, chief product officer, CyberArk. "If not properly configured or managed, these identities create a pathway for attackers to gain privileged access and ultimately compromise an entire cloud environment. CyberArk Cloud Entitlements Manager helps organizations take back control of cloud security by transforming how these permissions are secured and managed while also delivering unprecedented time to value and operational efficiency."

The cloud agnostic service continuously detects hidden, misconfigured and unused cloud permissions - improving security by providing a consistent approach to cloud least privilege.

As part of CyberArk's growing SaaS portfolio, which also includes Idaptive, Alero, Privilege Cloud and Endpoint Privilege Manager, Cloud Entitlements Manager builds on the company's industry leading privileged access management and IDaaS capabilities to provide unmatched enterprise wide security intelligence by helping to and reduce the growing risk of cloud permission sprawl while offering incomparable operational simplicity.
