CyberArk announced that Indiana University Health (IU Health) has expanded its use of the CyberArk Identity Security Platform to fortify cybersecurity protocols, strengthen incident response and reduce cyber insurance costs by prioritizing privileged access management (PAM). IU Health is Indiana?s larger network of physicians comprising more than 38,000 team members serving over 1.2 million individuals across the state. Like many healthcare organizations, the threat of targeted cyber attacks remains a real and constantly evolving risk. The CyberArkIdentity Security Threat Landscape Report found that 97% of healthcare organizations indicated they were targeted by at least one ransomware attack over the previous 12 months, the most of any sector. IU Health initially deployed CyberArk Privileged Access Manager (PAM), part of the CyberArk Identity Security Platform, for managing and securing IT administrator accounts and sensitive access for its SOC team. The expanded implementation now focuses on locking down third-party risk across its vendor ecosystem by securing vendor access and service accounts and meeting emerging audit and compliance requirements. With CyberArk PAM, IU Health can better manage the expanding number of privileged credentials across its network and isolate and monitor sessions to detect and respond to threats.
Centered on intelligent privilege controls, the CyberArk Identity Security Platform seamlessly secures human and machine identities accessing workloads from hybrid to multi-cloud, and flexibly automates the identity lifecycle all with continuous threat detection and prevention ? protecting organizations? identities and most critical assets by enabling Zero Trust and enforcing least privilege.
