CyberArk Privileged Account Security vs Microsoft Access

• 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.

• One good aspect of Microsoft Access is how the software can be customized for different applications. This is very useful because we are able to use this software for multiple applications, which makes it cost-friendly.
• Another strong point of Microsoft Access is the skill required to customize, the amount of programming required is less than most other database programs. This is good for a beginner looking to get into database management.
• Microsoft Access is one of the more cost-friendly database applications, and most of the time it comes with Microsoft Office. Other database programs can be expensive and not as easy to use.

• 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)

• Generally high learning curve for new users. Especially if they are not comfortable with technology.
• Desktop only program; not available in web-format like other O365 products
• Fewer experienced users, means it's a lot of self-teaching and troubleshooting when you run into an issue
