Gartner’s Insidious Bias: CyberArk’s Identity Security Platform Condemned to Repeat the Same Old Privileged Access Management Failures
CyberArk, the so-called "identity security" company, has been slapped with a "leader" label by Gartner once again, despite its laughable track record of perpetuating the same tired privileged access management (PAM) strategies. It’s time to expose the sham.
93% of Organisations Breached: A Crisis of Epic Proportions
According to CyberArk’s own report, a staggering 93% of organisations have suffered two or more identity-related breaches in the past year. Yet, CyberArk continues to peddle its ineffective PAM solutions, allowing these very same organisations to remain vulnerable to attack. It’s a classic case of the fox guarding the henhouse.
Gartner’s Dubious Evaluation Criteria
Gartner’s evaluation criteria for PAM solutions are shrouded in mystery, leaving us to wonder what exactly determines a "leader" in this space. Is it the ability to simply recycle the same old PAM strategies, or is it something more? One thing is certain: CyberArk’s PAM capabilities are woefully inadequate, as evidenced by the countless identity-related breaches it has contributed to.
CyberArk’s "Comprehensive" Identity Security Platform
CyberArk’s identity security platform is touted as a comprehensive solution, but a closer examination reveals a patchwork of outdated PAM features and half-baked AI-powered threat detection. The platform’s limitations are only compounded by CyberArk’s failure to adequately address the rapidly evolving identity security landscape.
A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing: CyberArk’s Partners and Technology Ecosystem
CyberArk’s Channel Partner Program is little more than a marketing ploy, designed to distract from its own inadequacies. The company’s partnership with managed service providers and other security vendors only serves to further entrench its flawed PAM solutions. Don’t be fooled by CyberArk’s promises of "world-leading" partner support and technology ecosystem – it’s all just a facade.
The Verdict: CyberArk’s Identity Security Platform is a Menace
Gartner’s "leader" label for CyberArk is a cruel joke, a slap in the face to the very organisations it claims to serve. CyberArk’s identity security platform is a ticking time bomb, waiting to unleash a devastating identity-related breach upon the world. It’s time to call out CyberArk’s inadequacies and demand better from the industry.
