CyberArk<\/a>, the global leader in identity <\/a>security, today announced that Panasonic Information Systems Co. Ltd. has implemented the CyberArk Identity Security Platform<\/a> to secure privileged access to thousands of servers across the Panasonic Group as part of its digital transition initiative. Now Panasonic Information Systems has a modern, automated privileged access management environment, ensuring that all users and identities across the organization are secured with the right level of privilege controls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Panasonic Group is a Japanese multinational electronics company involved in consumer electronics, home appliances, automotive, industrial systems, and more.  Panasonic Information Systems drives the IT strategy for the Group and oversees the planning, development, and operations of its information systems across its business including retail, distribution and manufacturing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the Panasonic Transformation (PX) initiative, Panasonic Information Systems aimed to address inefficiencies arising from a manual approach to privileged access management across an estate of thousands of Windows<\/a> and Linux servers, with server administrators also being responsible for inventory checks and asset management enquiries. In addition, Panasonic Information Systems intended to upgrade existing privilege management tools, which offered limited visibility into access requests and approvals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne of the key priorities of our digital transformation is strengthening our security defenses globally,\u201d said Hiroshi Yagi, Director, Professional Services Department, Platform Services Division, Panasonic Information Systems Co., Ltd<\/strong>. \u201cWith CyberArk, we have made significant progress by modernizing our approach to privileged access at scale and standardizing security policies throughout the organization.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Panasonic Information Systems implemented CyberArk Privileged Access Manager<\/a>, part of the CyberArk Identity Security Platform, to centralize and automate the granting of privileged access to servers across the Group. Panasonic Information Systems now has visibility into who accessed which server, when, and what operations were performed, providing an audit trail and improving post-incident investigations. Credentials and passwords are hidden from users and automatically granted and rotated within CyberArk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThreat actors today continue to develop new identity-centric attacks, necessitating a shift in how privileged access is secured,\u201d said Mitsuro Kakizawa, Regional Director, Japan at CyberArk<\/strong>. \u201cCyberArk has equipped Panasonic Information Systems with the ability to secure privileged access for all identities, in any environment, from anywhere, increasing cyber resilience and allowing for greater operational efficiencies.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
