CyberArk Privileged Access Management vs. Devolutions Server

The system is great for enterprise or larger IT departments or teams where temporary or full access may be given using privileged IDs. Requirements for needing local admin access is also eliminated which can help with specific Windows workstation related tasks. It can be very useful when working with remote teams or contractors who may need temporary access to a system when required.

I feel that Devolutions VLS is a great product which makes storing of secrets a hassle free job, as you can access your data in so many ways. Whether you are a small team who wants easy access to devices or for storing passwords to your internet sites to large teams with many types of devices to manage, and many types of information to keep safe.

• Automatically discover new servers on the network and take control of the local admin password by vaulting it and ensuring nobody knows the password. A different password on every server.
• Automatically roll the password in a configurable manner - after each use, after a certain period of time, etc.
• Track and govern sensitive account usage by ensuring only properly authorized users can access the vault and obtain the credentials and then monitor usage.

• Role based access control.
• Active Directory Integration.
• Remote Desktop Manager integration.
• Password Vault.

• GUI - right now everything is on one page/dashboard. Some level of folder/Safe type view would be great
• More options when storing passwords - especially for network based passwords
• Better integrations with vendors like Cisco so that admins dont need to really get the password from the vault (think Last Pass type add on)

• Easier ways to adjust inherit or at least access directly into a file/folder. If I want to give a user access to a specific folder inside a project, I have to manually remove his access to other folders in that project.

I think that we will stick with this service for as long as possible.

Customer support and technical support have always been great when we require assistance. Especially when we come across issues that we're not familiar with.

It is known as one of the safest products in the market. It has good support and is also available as on-premise. You can run it virtually on VMWare (and probably on other hypervisors as well). You can have a second instance on bare metal and that makes it a very safe system.

LastPass has a browser extension that I use daily. Granted I am a free user of the application not a paid user so there is probably a difference. LastPass does have the autofill option which is a great option when accessing multiple sites instead of having to open the password vault itself.

• Decreased the probability of an external cyber attack to privileged accounts..
• Management can control privileged account life cycle management more effectively
• Recording privileged sessions allows our organization to play back exactly the point of a breach or malicious behavior
• Automated system to manage and verify passwords, as privileged accounts are constantly created and deleted
• Automatic PWD change functionality will substantially decrease probability of PWD theft or misuse.

• We are very new to Devolutions in this company, so we can't say yet.
