Helps secure the infrastructure and control users with admin rights
There are many features that are currently missing. A customization option is required for certain policies. For instance, if we need to stop PowerShell scripting, we have to create a different policy for that. Being able to create a sub-level policy within a top-level policy would be good. Currently, no user-based policy option is available inside the EPM console. We can only create computer-based policies. The database is available, but there is a drawback in not being able to create local groups on the EPM console. We only have to depend on Active Directory. This limits infrastructure security as we depend on the Active Directory team to manage user groups. If they remove any users, we lose control. If we could create groups locally and block them or set specific policies, we would have more control. Local endpoint management is missing from the EPM site. Moreover, there is an issue with policies not running as expected when we make enhancements. We have to find multiple ways to whitelist applications or enhance policies.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We were able to reduce the number of privileged accounts by 50%, which helped to simplify our privileged access management environment."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its performance."
"What sets CyberArk apart is its continuous innovation, staying ahead of the competition."
"I am impressed with the product's seamless integration. The PAM wallet and enterprise password wallet are good also good."
"It has drastically reduced the attack surface for local administrative rights and the chance of escalation of privilege. We've removed, at this point, close to 98 percent of the local administrative accounts on workstations. If there were an incident, it would stop at that point and we'd be able to know."
"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is entirely cloud-based, so no further upkeep is required."
"The solution is scalable."
"There are many valuable aspects of the product, but the most common feature is working with the privileges. The controls of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager influence the visibility into endpoints for my customers. It allows them to granularly manage controls to prevent some malicious activities on the endpoint machine."
"The convenience has been great."
"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"In case it works, we are looking to use features like USB blocking, file upload alerts, and other antivirus features as well, but this software has to work first."
"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"The solution is stable."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
 

Cons

"The product's threat protection and defense capabilities need enhancement."
"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is a perfect solution, but CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager for Linux has many issues. Another area for improvement in CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager, specifically for Windows, is that there's no way for you to check credential theft from a text file, such as a notepad file."
"A customization option is required for certain policies. For instance, if we need to stop PowerShell scripting, we have to create a different policy for that. Being able to create a sub-level policy within a top-level policy would be good."
"CyberArk meets clients' need very spot-on. It covers everything customers ask for. As for improvements, honestly, the feedback's been really positive. I haven't heard any specific areas that need work."
"My recommendation for improvement is to add functionality for when users request access to an application. There's a pop-up UI, but it's not very customizable. I suggest creating a UI where we can write scripts or use SDKs to enhance it. This could automatically create tickets in a system like ServiceNow when users request an application. If a manager approves, we could automatically push policies to those users."
"Without knowledge, you are not able to find some items as they are really hidden within the UI."
"CyberArk should consider whitelisting important applications like PowerShell and DLL that are currently not allowed due to some malicious content."
"The product needs a streamlined user interface; improvements to the user interface can enhance user experience and make the solution more intuitive to navigate."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"The pricing could be a bit lower."
"It should be able to detect and report any ransomware attack but currently, it doesn't detect and it doesn't report any."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"Sometimes, small and medium businesses, or even startups with just five, ten, or fifteen systems, are also keen to secure their data. There is a reluctance on the part of the technical team to extend installation support when the opportunity sizes are smaller. Seqrite Endpoint Security has a lot of value. Still, its marketing could be done much better on a larger scale, especially in India, in light of the new DPDP 2023 Act, which the Indian Parliament passed. It would be even more valuable if Seqrite could incorporate features to help companies comply with this law, it would be even more helpful."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The cost of the solution can be improved."
"User management could be improved."
