ALAMEDA, Calif., Oct. 10, 2024 – Cerby, the comprehensive identity and access management platform for disconnected applications, today announced that it has been selected as winner of the “Password Management Solution of the Year” award in the 8th annual CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards program conducted by CyberSecurity Breakthrough, a leading independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global information security market today.

Cerby’s platform goes beyond traditional password managers by providing a comprehensive solution for securing disconnected applications, which lack APIs or support for standard protocols like SAML and SCIM. Unlike traditional password management solutions, Cerby enables organizations to automate critical identity workflows such as password rotations, multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforcement, and user provisioning and deprovisioning. Cerby’s automated approach helps IT and security teams bring these applications under centralized control, reducing operational risk and enhancing security.

“Disconnected applications create an identity blind spot for many organizations, but the real issue is the lack of automation for security controls. Cerby addresses this by enabling organizations to extend identity security to these apps, reducing risks and boosting efficiency,” said Belsasar Lepe, co-founder and CEO of Cerby. “It’s an honor to be singled out by CyberSecurity Breakthrough.  Our commitment is to automate the last mile of identity, helping organizations enhance their security posture while streamlining their processes”.

The mission of the CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards is to honor excellence and recognize the innovation, hard work and success in a range of information security categories, including Cloud Security, Threat Intelligence, Risk Management, Fraud Prevention, Mobile Security, Application Security, Identity Management and many more. This year’s program attracted thousands of nominations from over 20 different countries throughout the world.

“Cerby is transforming password management by focusing on automation and comprehensive security. Their ability to automate processes like MFA enforcement and password rotation, while bringing disconnected applications into the identity perimeter makes them a standout in the enterprise space” said Steve Johansson, managing director, CyberSecurity Breakthrough. “ With a majority of organizations facing incidents due to unsecured applications, we’re pleased to award Cerby with ‘Password Management Solution of the Year’ as they help organizations of all sizes ensure that their entire application ecosystem is fully protected”.
