Cyber-Arks Privileged Password Management Technology Wins SC Magazines Group Test of Password Management Solutions

NEWTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cyber-Ark Software, the leading provider of Privileged Identity Management (PIM), Sensitive Information Management and Digital Vault solutions, today announced that its Enterprise Password Vault (EPV) received SC Magazine’s highest rating of 5 out of 5 stars in the November 2008 edition’s third party group test of password management products. In addition, EPV received the publication’s esteemed “Best Buy” award for its superior functionality.

SC Magazine summed up the group test with the following comment: “The Cyber-Ark Enterprise Password Vault, or EPV, is a high-end password management powerhouse. This product helps administrators manage privileged account passwords across several major platforms using an advanced FIPS 140-2 validated cryptography module. This Vault also keeps critical password information secure using AES 256-bit encryption, along with solid auditing and tracking.”

Cyber-Ark’s Enterprise Password Vault was the only one of nine products tested by SC Magazine to receive 5 out of 5 stars in every category evaluated: Features, Ease of Use, Performance, Documentation, Support, and Value for Money. This marks Cyber-Ark’s second win this year in a third-party Privileged Account Management review, as EPV was also named Network World magazine's first ever "Clear Choice Test" winner for Privileged Account Management (PAM) products in April 2008, further validating Cyber-Ark as the leading provider of Privileged Identity Management (PIM) solutions.

“Year after year, SC Magazine’s group tests are viewed as a valuable, real-world assessment of the best solutions available to information security professionals,” said Udi Mokady, president and CEO of Cyber-Ark.
