We provided Managed PAM Services for Azure Environment with market-leading products. Our team of experts manages and implements entire solutions for customers with industry best practices

    • Key Features:

Automate, discover, and onboard: privileged accounts and credentials including VM and storage account passwords, SSH Keys, and API keys across on-premises, cloud, or hybrid environments to reduce risk. Accelerate onboarding of unmanaged accounts based on risk.

Monitor: Suspend and terminate privileged sessions automatically on risk score and activity across Azure environments. Minimize end-user impact with granular level controls. Integrate with SOC tools and prioritize alerts based on risk score.

Record: Reduce time spent on audit review with the ability to start viewing logs at the point of risky activities. Risk-based review and response by classifying risk levels.

2) Solution Deployment stages:

    • Determine the roles and permissions for users and administrators.
  1. b) Architecture Design:
    • Plan the deployment architecture, considering high availability, disaster recovery, and scalability.

Step 3: Installation of CyberArk Components on Azure Workloads

  1. a) Install CyberArk Vault:
    •  Deploy the CyberArk Vault server. This is a critical component that stores and manages privileged account information.
    • Configure database connectivity and set up the necessary security parameters.
  1. b) Install CyberArk Components:
    • Based on your architecture design, install additional CyberArk components, such as Central Policy Manager (CPM) and Privileged Session Manager (PSM).

Step 4: Configure CyberArk Components

  1. a) Configure Vault:
    • Set up initial settings, including administrative users, policies, and general system configurations.
    • Configure account platforms and safe configurations.
  1. b) Configure CPM and PSM:
    • Integrate Central Policy Manager (CPM) with the Vault for automatic password management.
    • Configure Privileged Session Manager (PSM) to control and monitor privileged sessions.

Step 5: Integration with Target Systems

  1. Define Accounts:
    • Add privileged accounts to CyberArk Vault for management.
    • Configure account properties, such as password policies.
  1. Connect to Target Systems:
    • Establish connections between CyberArk and target systems.
    • Configure the necessary plugins or connectors for various platforms.

Step 6: Implement Policies and Workflows

  1. a) Define Access Policies:
    • Create and configure access control policies based on the principle of least privilege.
    • Define workflows for requesting, approving, and managing access.

Step 7: Testing

  1. a) User Acceptance Testing (UAT):
    • Test various scenarios, including password rotation, session monitoring, and access requests.

4) Training and Documentation

    • Train administrators and end-users on how to use the CyberArk PAM solution effectively by Managed Services Team
    • Create and maintain documentation for the deployment, including configuration settings, procedures, and troubleshooting steps.

5) Monitoring and Maintenance

  1. a) Implement Monitoring:
    • Set up monitoring tools to track the performance and security of the CyberArk solution.
  1. b) Regular Maintenance:
    • Schedule regular maintenance tasks, such as software updates, backups, and system health checks.

6) Compliance and Auditing

  1. a) Configure Auditing:
    • Enable auditing features to track user activities and system changes.
  1. Compliance Checks:
    • Regularly review and ensure that the system complies with relevant security and compliance standards.

7) Ongoing Support and Optimization
