CYBER-ARK UNVEILS SOURCE CODE VAULT
Inter-Business Vault® for Distributed Software Development Projects Enables Secure, High-performance Code Sharing and Exchange without Opening the Network to Outsiders
Dedham, Mass.,-March 29, 2004 - Cyber-Ark® Software Inc., the information security software company that invented and markets Vaulting Technology, today unveiled Inter-Business Vault for Distributed Software Development Projects (Source Code Vault). The Source Code Vault solution enables secure, high-performance code sharing and exchange over the Internet, enabling organizations to confidently leverage offshore development, outsourcing and other collaborative development projects without opening the entire enterprise's network to subcontractors and other outsiders.
Widespread outsourcing and offshore development are transforming the software development entities of banks, insurance and technology companies into globally distributed, collaborative operations. Unfortunately, network boundaries, security concerns and bandwidth issues pose significant barriers to organizations trying to connect distributed software development sites to each other in order to reduce costs and deliver the shortest time-to-production for new software products. The Source Code Vault eliminates the need to open the enterprise's network to subcontractors with a Virtual Private Network (VPN) or completely redundant network, while still enabling the sharing of file servers, FTP servers, and mail systems as if the sites are sharing a single network
"Despite the security risks, virtually every large enterprise engages in some form of outsourced or contract development, often opening up sensitive network areas with a VPN or redundant networks," said Alon Cohen, CEO of Cyber-Ark. "The Source Code Vault makes it tremendously easy and safe to rapidly connect subcontractors and distributed development sites-without exposing the enterprise network to an onslaught of potential security risks."
Built on Inter-Business Vault Technology
Source Code Vault builds upon Cyber-Ark's groundbreaking Inter-Business Vault. Rather than trying to protect the entire enterprise, Cyber-Ark provides a safe haven, highly secured regardless of overall network security, where information can be stored and shared. Cyber-Ark's patented Vaulting Technology substantially decreases costs, improves security and enhances the performance associated with sharing information internally, with business partners and with remote offices.
