CyberArk issues a Solutions Brief that highlights Badge and CyberArk’s partnership and product integration, and how the companies are together defining the next frontier in privileged identity.

This Solutions Brief first explains the current challenges and threats faced when securing privileged accounts.  It points out how increasingly sophisticated AI attacks, deepfakes, and spear phishing privileged users are accelerating, and that the model of building higher walls to secure the “crown jewels” of privileged account credentials is futile.  The conclusion is reached that in order to secure access, one must eliminate the crown jewels entirely: “Secure access requires a paradigm shift: stop storing credentials, eliminate the crown jewels.”

The Solutions Brief introduces Badge and points out that “Badge uniquely enables cross-domain, decentralized, digital identity.” The piece then points out the benefits of integrating Badge and CyberArk Identity together, which includes users enjoying seamless authentication experiences across all channels, including new and shared devices, without the risk of data breach from compromised credentials.

Next, the piece covers how the solution works. “The Badge and CyberArk Workforce integration allows specified users to easily authenticate into CyberArk Identity and its downstream apps and services.”

CyberArk’s Solution Brief highlights three key features and benefits of Badge: User-Centric Privacy, Authenticate on Any Device, and Unparalleled Security. The Brief notes that the new integration enables customers to “auto-comply with privacy laws CCPA, GDPR, BIPA.”
