Integrated Solution Secures and Manages Secrets
Used by Jenkins; Drives Greater Automation Across DevOps
Pipeline
CyberArk (NASDAQ: CYBR), the company that protects organizations
from cyber attacks that have made their way inside the network
perimeter, today announced the integration of the CyberArk
Privileged Account Security Solution with Jenkins, the leading open
source automation server. With this integration, organizations gain
an automated orchestration process with built-in secrets management
and protection for their DevOps pipeline without unnecessary
trade-offs between security and velocity. CyberArk will demonstrate
the integration at stand #504 at Jenkins World 2017, August 28 –
31.
Automatically Embed Secrets Management Best Practices Into
DevOps PipelinesSecrets represent one of the largest
DevOps-related security vulnerabilities an organization faces
today. In many environments, secrets are poorly secured – often in
text files – and are manually managed by team members.
This makes secrets a prime target for an external attacker or
malicious insider. If exploited, secrets allow attackers to take
full control of an organization’s IT infrastructure, disable
security controls, steal confidential information, commit financial
fraud and disrupt operations.
The CyberArk Privileged Account Security Solution integration
with Jenkins enables CIOs, CISOs, operations personnel and
developers to deploy solutions that provide security and support
compliance goals without impeding the agility and speed of the
DevOps pipeline. Organizations can now:
- Secure and Manage Secrets Used by
Jenkins Jobs: The joint solution automates nearly all security
and management tasks related to secrets use by the Jenkins solution
across every environment and platform. Each time a job is run, the
Jenkins agent retrieves a secret from CyberArk-Conjur – keeping
secrets safe. CyberArk-Conjur rotates secrets automatically based
on an organization’s security policy, making them available to
developers on-demand in any environment, while protecting them from
potential compromise.
- Secure and Monitor Privileged User
Access to the Jenkins Console: As the Jenkins console provides
access to almost every asset throughout the DevOps pipeline from
development to deployment, user activity should be carefully
monitored and controlled. Using CyberArk Privileged Session
Manager, organizations can isolate, control and monitor user access
and activity on the Jenkins console to prevent against insider
threats or external attacks. All privileged user sessions are
recorded in the background for audit and compliance purposes.
“Focusing on secrets protection, and ensuring that privileged
access to Jenkins is secured and managed, will enable security
practitioners/experts to enforce security polices and support
compliance goals while giving DevOps teams the tools they need to
remain productive,” said Kohsuke Kawaguchi, CTO, CloudBees and
founder of the Jenkins project. “CyberArk is setting a standard for
how organizations can secure privileged accounts and manage secrets
without impacting the DevOps workflow.”
The enterprise-grade CyberArk Privileged Account Security
Solution enables DevOps and security practitioners to automatically
secure and manage secrets – used by both users and machines such as
CI/CD and configuration management tools, applications, hosts and
microservices. This enables organizations to accelerate the rate of
software deployment without compromising on security, while
maintaining a comprehensive audit trail for compliance
initiatives.
“The DevOps process has had a dramatic impact on organizations
and the speed with which software can be delivered. Despite these
gains, DevOps was fundamentally not designed with security in mind,
representing a growing attack surface that malicious attackers
target and exploit,” said Adam Bosnian, executive vice president,
global business development, CyberArk. “The integration of the
CyberArk Privileged Account Security Solution with Jenkins provides
organizations with an enterprise-class solution for privileged
account security and automated secrets management. This empowers
organizations to create secure DevOps environments without slowing
down productivity.”
As part of this integration, Jenkins is also joining CyberArk’s
global technology partner program that brings together enterprise
software, IT security and service providers to build on the power
of privileged account security to better protect customers from
cyber threats across multi-platform environments.
