Accolade Underscores CyberArk's Leadership in Privileged Account Security in Asia Pacific

SINGAPORE, June 23, 2015 - (ACN Newswire) - CyberArk, the company that protects organisations from cyber-attacks that have made their way inside the network perimeter, today announced that it has won the Identity and Authentication Management award at Network World Asia Information Management Awards 2015. The annual awards program organised by Questex Asia recognises the best vendors in information security, storage and data management in Asia.

"Privileged accounts represent the largest security vulnerability an organisation faces today. In the hands of an external attacker or malicious insider, privileged accounts allow attackers to take full control of an organisation's IT infrastructure, disable security controls, steal confidential information, commit financial fraud and disrupt operations. Organisations are realising how critical cyber security is, and they recognise that it is much more impactful to take a proactive path to security by protecting, managing, monitoring and analysing activity on privileged accounts," said John Worrall, Chief Marketing Officer, CyberArk. "This award recognises CyberArk's commitment to protecting our customers' businesses from potential adversaries."

The three-phase nomination process involved nominations from numerous vendor partners, resellers and Questex Asia's Enterprise Team to NetworkWorld Asia's editorial team for consideration in 30 award categories. More than 100 regional IT leaders and CIOs of end-user organisations were invited to vote for a winner in each category.

"There is a growing need among Asian enterprises today to protect their digital assets from insider attacks or accidental leakage. The award highlights the unrivalled breadth and depth, as well as the importance of the privileged account security solution that CyberArk offers today," said Victor Ng, Southeast Asia Bureau Chief of Network World Asia. "We congratulate CyberArk for attaining this well-deserved honour."
