If your identity governance program feels like a relic from a simpler time, you’re not alone. Traditional identity governance and automation (IGA) was built for a world where job titles told the whole story. A software engineer was a software engineer; a sales rep was a sales rep. Assigning access was intended to be as simple as slotting people into predefined roles.

Most security teams cannot confidently answer a simple question: who has access to which cloud resources right now? Human identities and accounts now span across thousands of services, subscriptions, and SaaS platforms. The result is a vast, decentralized environment riddled with “unknown unknowns” that security teams cannot fully map, and that traditional security controls weren’t designed to address. Attackers count on these identity blind spots.

In today’s smart factories, production doesn’t go quiet at shift change. Behind the scenes, modern manufacturing systems never cease. They continuously exchange data, adjust software and processes in real time, and allow vendors to connect remotely to monitor performance or deliver updates. As these interactions multiply, the number of identity-driven points grows just as quickly.

Most organizations have gotten very good at protecting the front door. We invest heavily in single sign-on (SSO), mandate multi-factor authentication (MFA), and lock down who can log in, from where, and under what conditions. We do everything to ensure that the right user has the right access. But one critical question often still goes unanswered: What really happens after someone logs in?

When a production line stops, the clock starts ticking. In manufacturing environments I’ve worked in, every minute of downtime can translate into missed delivery commitments and revenue you’ll never see again. How long that outage lasts will be decided in the first few minutes, when identity ownership and decision authority are still being sorted out. That authority gap is easy to underestimate. Manufacturing leaders already plan extensively for physical disruption.

In my experience working inside banks, identity security can be like plumbing: when it’s working, no one wants to talk about it. When there’s an incident, an audit, or a regulator—suddenly everyone wants to understand how it works. Artificial intelligence (AI) brings the same “no one cares until everyone does” energy, but with face-melting velocity. Today, AI is embedded across large parts of the financial services industry, and it has been around for more than 25 years.

For years, identity has been treated as a supporting function, authenticating users, gating access, and satisfying audit requirements. Important, but rarely foundational. That era is over. In modern enterprises, identity has become the infrastructure on which critical systems depend. Every workload, certificate, API, automated process, and AI-driven action must rely on identity to operate safely and predictably. When identity fails, those systems become exposed—and often stop behaving as expected.

As AI systems are used in our day-to-day operations, a central reality becomes unavoidable: AI doesn’t configure itself and must be set up with human approval and oversight. It requires engineers and developers to configure it. Developers need privileges to access and implement components, agents, tools, and features of the platforms. But developers don’t just have these privileges unconstrained… right? Where trust and privileges exist, someone will try to abuse them.

Any user can become privileged in certain conditions. This includes everyday employees using business applications in which they can access - and take actions with - the resources attackers aim to exploit. And whether you're a CIO or a PAM admin, you likely see this evolution of privilege occurring regularly. Protecting your users' identities - from securing authentication to granting, certifying and revoking access - is essential. But it's not easy, as the users and apps requiring protection grow in number and scope. So how can your team rise to this challenge?

By applying intelligent privilege controls to all identities – human and machine – CyberArk enables secure access to any resource, anywhere, everywhere – with a single Identity Security platform.
Seamlessly secure identities throughout the cycle of accessing any resource across any infrastructure, including hybrid, SaaS and multi-cloud. The CyberArk Identity Security Platform is the first line of defense against malicious actors and unauthorized access to protect what matters most.
Apply Intelligent Privilege Controls Across the Entire Identity Lifecycle:
- Workforce & Customer Access: Ensure that the right users have secure access to the right resources at the right times, by protecting workforce and customer credentials and tightly controlling access to on-premises and cloud-based applications, services and IT infrastructure.
- Endpoint Privilege Security: Take control over unmanaged privilege on the endpoints to significantly reduce the area of attack and defend from threats by removing local admin rights, enforcing role-specific least privilege and improving audit-readiness.
- Privileged Access Management: Secure privileged credentials and secrets with comprehensive capabilities for operating systems, endpoints, cloud infrastructure and workloads, servers, databases, applications, hypervisors, network devices, security appliances and more.
- Secrets Management: Secure and manage the secrets and credentials used by applications, machines and other non-human identities to access IT and other sensitive resources across both enterprise and external IT environments.
- Cloud Privilege Security: Extend privilege controls to cloud environments by analyzing, securing and monitoring access. Discover and remove excessive permissions by visualizing access for human, machine and federated identities.
- Identity Management: Automate the management of digital identities across enterprise IT environments and centrally create, maintain and analyze access to right-size permissions on the journey to least privilege.
Don’t just manage identities. Secure them.
