CyberArk Unveils Enhanced Identity Security Platform to Protect Human, AI, and Machine Identities Amid Rising Cyber Threats
In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, securing identities has become a top priority for organizations worldwide. CyberArk (NASDAQ: CYBR), the global leader in identity security, has announced groundbreaking innovations across its Identity Security Platform at the IMPACT 2025 Conference. These advancements enable enterprises to secure all identities—human, AI, and machine—with best-in-class privilege controls, addressing the escalating threats posed by an increasingly complex threat landscape.
The Growing Challenge of Identity Security
As organizations navigate an era defined by exponential technological growth, they face unprecedented risks from sophisticated cyberattacks. The proliferation of human privileges, the rise of machine identities, and the emergence of Agentic AI have expanded the attack surface significantly. Attackers are targeting identities more than ever, making them a primary vector for breaches. To combat these challenges, CyberArk has introduced a unified platform with expanded capabilities to secure every identity comprehensively.
“Security teams require identity security capabilities that extend to all identities—human, AI, and machine—because any identity can become privileged, and all identities carry risk,” said Peretz Regev, Chief Product and Technology Officer at CyberArk. “Only CyberArk provides core capabilities across discovery and context, privilege controls, policy automation, lifecycle management, and governance and compliance from a single, unified platform. Our approach enables organizations to consolidate previously siloed capabilities, securing all identities with optimal efficiency and effectiveness.”
New Innovations Across the CyberArk Identity Security Platform
Enhanced Platform Performance with CyberArk CORA AI™
CyberArk’s CORA AI™ has been enhanced with cutting-edge features designed to improve performance, efficiency, and security:
- AI-based session audits for deeper insights into user activity.
- Policy recommendations based on activity patterns and industry best practices.
- A natural language interface for simplified configuration and setup.
- Troubleshooting and diagnostic support powered by AI for rapid issue resolution.
Additionally, the new Control Center serves as a centralized hub, offering guided workflows to streamline administration, manage access across environments, and enhance both end-user and admin experiences.
Expanded Discovery and Context
The platform now provides continuous discovery across privileged accounts, secrets, certificates, agents, workloads, and Active Directory accounts. This is achieved through native scanners and agents, as well as integrations with third-party tools like Wiz, ensuring comprehensive visibility into all identities.
Securing AI Agents: A New Frontier
With the rise of Agentic AI, millions of autonomous, adaptable, and interactive AI agents require privileged access to dynamic ecosystems. CyberArk introduces Secure AI Agents, a first-of-its-kind solution designed to address the unique challenges posed by this emerging technology. Key features include:
- Discovery and Context: Provides observability into known and shadow agents, as well as agentic infrastructure.
- Secure Access Management: Enforces least privilege and manages credentials for AI agents with privileged access.
- Threat Detection and Response: Offers real-time behavioral monitoring to detect anomalies and prevent misuse.
- Automated Lifecycle Management: Eliminates stale or excessive access for the entire agentic population.
- Governance: Ensures AI agents operate in compliance with organizational and regulatory requirements.
To further support developers, CyberArk Labs has released the AI Agent Toolset, a collection of open-source tools available on the CyberArk GitHub account. These tools provide insights into how AI agents communicate and highlight potential risks that may require attention.
Advancements in Securing Human Identities
CyberArk continues to innovate in protecting human identities, introducing new solutions tailored to modern workplace challenges:
- Secure Workforce Unmanaged Endpoints: Extends enterprise-grade identity security to unmanaged devices without requiring IT control, using non-intrusive, layered identity security controls.
- Secure Web Sessions: Delivers deep, continuous protection for unmanaged devices accessing SaaS and browser-based applications.
- Just-in-Time and Zero Standing Privilege Access: Enables granular control for multiple roles accessing cloud infrastructure, services, and workloads. With Zero Standing Privilege, entitlements don’t exist unless explicitly granted, safeguarding identities even if credentials are compromised.
- Modern Session Management: Reduces ownership costs and enhances the user experience with a lower-footprint connector for managing access to infrastructure and cloud.
Additionally, CyberArk’s Modern Identity Governance & Administration (IGA), powered by Zilla Security, accelerates provisioning and access reviews, reducing effort by 80% and enabling five times faster deployment compared to legacy IGA systems.
Strengthening Machine Identity Security
Machine identities are growing exponentially, necessitating robust solutions to manage their lifecycle and mitigate risks. CyberArk introduces several new offerings:
- Secure Workload Access: Provides visibility and control over the entire machine identity lifecycle, from creation and governance to automated rotation and renewal.
- Secure All Secrets: Centralizes secrets management across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, featuring a new authenticator wizard and improved edge performance.
- Policy Automation with Secrets Rotation Service: A SaaS-based approach to managing credentials and policies across environments, enhancing security, compliance, and efficiency.
- Secure Certificates and PKI: Automates certificate lifecycle management and prepares enterprises for post-quantum cryptography.
- Secure Cloud-Native Secrets and Certificates: Discovers and manages native cloud secrets across GCP, AWS, and Azure, with one-click remediation for unmanaged AWS secrets.
Why CyberArk Leads the Way in Identity Security
CyberArk’s unified platform stands out by providing comprehensive capabilities for securing all identities—human, AI, and machine—from a single interface. By consolidating previously siloed functions, the platform ensures optimal efficiency, reduces complexity, and delivers unmatched protection against modern threats.
As organizations continue to grapple with escalating risks, CyberArk’s innovations empower them to protect critical assets, mitigate risks, and enhance business resiliency. By adopting a proactive, identity-first security strategy, enterprises can stay ahead of attackers and thrive in an era of rapid change.
