Automated lifecycle governance has reduced manual access work and strengthens audit readiness
CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla significantly reduces manual access management efforts due to day-to-day activities. RBAC and role mining actually reduce manual access management efforts significantly. RBAC is the best feature, and it provides AI capabilities. The second feature I value most is identifying lifecycle management for joiner, mover, and leaver scenarios. CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla has one feature that provides strong access reviews, compliance reports, automation, and audit readiness with centralized governance. Centralized governance means we can handle everything at one point, making it a very strong feature. This is integrated with another feature such as SaaS integrations for strong security posture and faster provisioning with reduced operational overhead. These are the four features I value most, and with all my three years of experience, I use and appreciate these four features most. The impact of automation on my access reviews is that it automates the provisioning and de-provisioning. If I were to perform manual tasks such as provisioning and de-provisioning without automation, it would require a lot of time to handle. With this automation, we easily accomplish provisioning or de-provisioning. We simply get the Active Directory users and create the VPNs, cloud, and enterprise applications without any manual intervention. AI-driven role management and RBAC automation significantly reduce service tickets. Without automation, I would need to handle tickets, which involve a lot of manual work and requires additional manual employees. Without automation, this leads to approval delays and manual access assignment efforts. Automated access reviews provide simple audit reports, and by complying with the report, it improves audit readiness while reducing operational workload for IT and security teams.

Great validation and integrity features of the endpoint
Our primary use case of Safenet is for cybersecurity incidents, particularly for remote users.  I'm the customer sales leader and a key account manager and we are customers of Thales.  The validation and integrity features of the endpoint are great.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best feature is the secure logins and secure connections."
"The depth of information has helped my team by integrating with PAM and giving us a holistic view based on the access management, identity threat detections, and identity governance, providing a very broad umbrella to solve things based on security layers."
"When we implemented CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla, we definitely achieved a lot in terms of security, mitigating business risk across all assets, saving time, and reducing the risk of account compromise and access compromise."
"Overall, CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla helps us automate user access reviews, provisioning, and de-provisioning for both human and machine identities across hybrid and multi-cloud environments."
"Idira IGA now serves as a comprehensive solution that suits all of our needs."
"I appreciate that Idira IGA is very easy to understand and deploy."
"CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla offers unique features and is mostly secure and automated, and I strongly recommend this product due to its eighty percent less impact on access reviews, which is useful for audits, compliance, and security governance."
"We had these spreadsheets all over the place, but now we have a library of evidence to consult when needed. Zilla keeps everything in one place. It's not scattered all over anymore."
"The solution is simple to use."
"The interface is easy to use."
"I recommend this solution because it protects information."
"Right now, we only have a small use case for the product, however, it has performed well."
"The validation and integrity features of the endpoint are great."
 

Cons

"There should be improvement in terms of Idira IGA support. Everything else is good, but support is very lacking."
"I feel that customer support is somewhat lacking; the supporting engineers do not have the necessary knowledge, and they will route inquiries here and there without providing solutions quickly."
"For improvement, I would suggest enhancing the reporting functionality of CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla, as it could benefit from more customization or advanced filtering for auditing purposes."
"The first thing that can be improved is the central admin console."
"There is still no automated way to de-provision access as a result of a review, but they are getting there in terms of making it unified. They are getting closer to that."
"There is room for improvement in CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla mainly related to automation complexity. Skilled people are required to handle these tasks."
"I am from Indonesia and we lack local consultants for discussions and brainstorming on potential features. We do not have local support here."
"Improvement suggestions for CyberArk include addressing the on-premises deployment processes, which require a very skilled engineer to handle because of the complexity of the environments involved."
"There's a dependency on Microsoft Azure."
"I'd like to see more networking features, such as the ability to integrate network monitoring solutions and authenticate the app users."
"SafeNet's reporting and monitoring features could be improved."
"The scalability may not be there."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It has been fair because we have been in from the beginning or close to the beginning. I know it is not truly an identity access management system yet, but its price was one of the appealing factors for us to purchase it at the time. It was reasonably priced."
