Konoike Transport Realizes Significant Security Improvements With CyberArk As It Embarks On Cloud-First Digital Transformation
20 November 2024 - 12:26AM
Business Wire
CyberArk (NASDAQ: CYBR), the global leader in identity security,
today announced that Konoike Transport has implemented CyberArk as
part of its strategy to incorporate cloud services and SaaS to
improve operational efficiency and build resilience against
cybersecurity threats.
With a headcount of approximately 24,000, Konoike Transport is a
logistics, transportation and outsourcing services company
headquartered in Japan. Having previously adopted a multi-layer
security strategy, it still faced the challenge of unifying and
protecting privileged access to its applications, servers and cloud
services, which had been managed in a siloed way. This approach
impacted incident response times and, because of an overall lack of
visibility, potentially exposed the company to internal and
external threats. Passwords were also managed separately in
individual systems, so failures to change passwords after
individuals transferred departments or left the company meant
further risk exposure.
To be able to discover, secure and manage all identities on a
single platform, Konoike Transport implemented CyberArk Privileged
Access Manager, a component of the CyberArk Identity Security
Platform. With a unified view of all privileged accounts, it now
has a clear insight into user access within a few clicks. Besides
better incident response time, with a log of all accounts, Konoike
Transport can now conduct audits and meet compliance requirements
such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act more efficiently. Further,
CyberArk’s ability to enable cloud-based privileged access within a
single architecture fits perfectly into Konoike Transport’s
cloud-first strategy.
Masaya Sato, Deputy Executive General Manager, ICT Promotion
Division and General Manager, Digital Transformation Promotion
Department, Konoike Transport said,“With CyberArk, our security is
significantly boosted. End users now have secure access without
sacrificing convenience and administrators can monitor multiple
systems in an integrated manner, greatly reducing our attack
surface.”
“CyberArk is honored to be chosen by Konoike Transport to
centralize its privileged access management,” said Mitsuro
Kakizawa, Regional Director for Japan, CyberArk. “Threat actors
seek out unsecured privileged accounts to enter an organization’s
IT environment. CyberArk enables the highest levels of control,
management and security for Konoike Transport’s privileged
identities, adding a critical protection layer to the company’s key
assets and supporting its digital transformation journey.”
