Case Study: Fiducia IT AG achieves secure, automated management of 20,000+ privileged accounts with CyberArk Privileged Account Security Solution

Fiducia IT AG Relies on CyberArk to Manage 20,000+ Privileged Accounts in Support of Security & Compliance Requirements

Fiducia IT AG, the leading IT service provider for German banks, faced the challenge of securing and managing more than 20,000 privileged accounts across a highly complex, heterogeneous data center (10,000+ UNIX/Windows servers, five mainframes, ~400 databases and 1,500 network components). Privileged accounts had been managed manually, creating risk and inefficiency while Fiducia sought to meet strict banking-sector security and compliance requirements (MaRisk), ensure disaster recovery, full auditability and 24/7 availability.

Fiducia implemented the CyberArk Privileged Account Security Solution—including Enterprise Password Vault, the hardened Digital Vault and distributed Central Policy Managers—with out-of-the-box and custom plug-ins to connect diverse systems. The solution now secures and automates management of 20,000+ accounts, enforces password policies and rotation, integrates with SIEM and auditing, and has improved process quality, operational efficiency and regulatory compliance.
