SailPoint IdentityIQ Applications Credential Cycling Using PAM Solution

Posted on by Chaitanya Malladi in CyberArk, Identity Governance, Sailpoint, Technology

A large number of applications on SailPoint IdentityIQ rely on using service accounts to communicate with the application targets. These accounts have the authorizations to perform identity management tasks and should be treated as privileged accounts. When a privileged account management solution like CyberArk or BeyondTrust is used in the organisation, the credentials of the privileged account would be stored on the PAM solution and retrieved by IdentityIQ whenever required. The feature of credential cycling introduced in IdentityIQ 7.3 allows this to be configured with ease.

 

The following presentation discusses the need for credential cycling and how it works:

The following demonstration illustrates a use case where credential cycling is configured with the CyberArk PAM solution:

The next video demonstrates credential cycling when configured with the Thycotic Secret Server PAM solution:

Integrating CyberArk with SailPoint using SCIM

Privileged accounts are considered to be “keys to the kingdom” in any IT Infrastructure. Almost every cyber attack that has ever happened involved compromises at the privileged account level. PAM Solutions usually help in managing such accounts, keys or files that would lead to escalated access.

CyberArk is the global leader in PAM solutions with a holistic approach towards privileged account management. It covers not only traditional PAM problems but also extends its capabilities with various features like managing hard-coded application credentials, analytics, on-demand privileges escalation and managing end-user devices like desktops.

Securing and streamlining identity and privileges data present with such solutions is of very high importance.

In the following presentation, we provide a detailed overview of CyberArk integration with SailPoint by integrating Cyberark as a SailPoint’s application.

In the following video, we provide a detailed demo of this integration.
