If I have a core banking application platform with users or privileged users accessing that particular environment, I have to ensure that the right people are accessing what they're supposed to access. I need to have proper monitoring on them, ensuring that privileged accounts are not being shared and that generic accounts are not in use. For instance, if someone accesses the core banking application and performs changes or transactions, this solution enables me to track who did what in that session and even monitor or replay the session of that person's actions.
The solution can be deployed on cloud or on-premises. CyberArk is more on the cloud than on local hardware. The deployment is initially quite difficult. That said, when you are doing the implementation of CyberArk, there are so many tutorials that make the learning process very easy. The only complaint could be the language barrier. It's difficult if you don't have a very good level of English. Otherwise, it is very easy. You can have it set up within three months without much difficulty. It's hard to get started, however, once you get going, it gets easier. A full deployment takes half a year or less. There is some maintenance necessary. A company is constantly hiring and letting go of employees. The access is always changing, so access must always be adjusted. Or, if we need another law of filter, we would need to add those, or even take them away. That's another aspect of maintenance.
