Pages 6 Pages

SSH has become the standard for secure remote access and automation, but unmanaged SSH keys create a perfect storm of risks including sprawl, missing controls, lack of expiration, theft, lateral movement, data exfiltration, and slow incident response. With millions of keys across hybrid environments, attackers exploit these gaps to gain persistent privileged access. CyberArk SSH Manager for Machines secures SSH usage through visibility, intelligence, and automation. It builds inventories, identifies vulnerabilities, automates remediation like key rotation and removal of root access, and provides continuous monitoring. This reduces breach risk, improves compliance, and streamlines lifecycle management.
