CyberArk earns Wiz partner award for advancing cloud identity innovation

Cloud complexity is growing. So are the risks—and the opportunities. As organizations scale their infrastructure across hybrid environments to innovate quickly, security strategies must evolve just as fast. The rapid adoption of multi-cloud environments and the proliferation of human and machine identities have intensified the challenge. According to the CyberArk 2025 Identity Security Landscape, nine out of 10 organizations experienced an identity-centric breach in the past year, with more than half falling victim to phishing and vishing attacks numerous times. This reality underscores the urgency of managing identity sprawl and implementing scalable security controls to safeguard cloud access.

At the forefront in addressing these challenges is the award-winning integration between CyberArk and Wiz. Today, CyberArk is honored to receive the 2025 WINcredible Award, part of the inaugural Wiz Integration (WIN) Partner Awards, recognizing standout partners across Wiz’s growing ecosystem.

The WINcredible award specifically celebrates partners who exemplify the spirit of collaboration, innovation, and shared success within the WIN network. The award highlights how bold, strategic alliances can drive measurable impact in the battle against evolving cyber threats. Together, CyberArk and Wiz are redefining how identity security and cloud security work together to deliver tangible results in risk reduction for enterprises industry-wide.

The growing threat landscape in multi-cloud environments

The complexity of cloud adoption is both a business enabler and a risk multiplier. Enterprises are no longer operating in single-cloud setups; they are managing multi-cloud environments with sprawling infrastructure, high operational velocity, and fragmented risk visibility.

In my regular discussions with CISOs, recurring pain points consistently emerge:

• Overprivileged identities: The proliferation of human and machine identities expands attack surfaces, making it difficult to track permissions consistently. This often results in unsuspecting overprivileged identities—a prime target for attackers.
• Cloud complexity: Mismanaged permissions across cloud environments create significant vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit.
• Limited visibility: Traditional security tools provide fragmented, siloed insights that lack context, leading to gaps in the organization’s identity security posture.

Without dynamic, context-driven insight into who has access to what, why, and for how long, organizations that fail to secure access to cloud environments proactively are left vulnerable to breaches, regulatory penalties, and costly remediation efforts.

Why the CyberArk-Wiz partnership stands out: Delivering measurable security outcomes

The CyberArk-Wiz partnership emerged organically as a result of customer demand. Leading enterprises actively sought a solution that marries modern identity security with advanced cloud visibility. The collaboration between CyberArk and Wiz sets a new standard, enabling deep visibility across hybrid cloud environments. Contextual insights, actionable intelligence, and adaptive controls for effective cloud-native security are at the forefront of this successful partnership.

Real impact through strategic integration

Rooted in addressing the challenges of the modern-day enterprise, this integration is driving measurable improvements in cloud security operations:

1. Unified visibility at scale
   By combining Wiz’s advanced discovery capabilities with CyberArk’s intelligent privilege controls, organizations can gain real time visibility across sprawling environments. Enterprises can now proactively put plans in place to answer crucial questions like, “Who has access? What level of privilege do they have? How risky is it?” throughout their expansive cloud environments.
2. Context-rich risk management
   The partnership goes beyond surface-level threat detection. By correlating identity, entitlement, and vulnerability data, CyberArk and Wiz help teams anticipate and remediate risks before they materialize.
3. Enforcing zero standing privileges (ZSP)
   Industry-leading ZSP capabilities reduce the risk of standing access and over-provisioned identities in cloud environments. Context-driven controls help leading enterprises securely manage access without sacrificing agility or productivity.

Practical solutions for modern security challenges

The combined power of CyberArk and Wiz solutions can help organizations strike a balance between speed of innovation and strength of security:

• Compliant and governance-led. Organizations juggling GDPR, CCPA, and other stringent regulations can leverage this integration to audit entitlements, enforce least privilege, and report compliance effectively at scale.
• Agility without compromise. Organizations should not have to choose between security and productivity. The CyberArk and Wiz partnership is designed to enable fast-moving cloud users to securely maintain developmental velocity by embedding cloud access controls into their native workflows.
• Robust and nimble response. The combined power of deep visibility and context-driven resolution enables leading enterprises to respond quickly to threats and implement proactive controls to reduce risk in a repeatable, systematic manner without manual overhead.

Driving the future together

With enterprises scaling rapidly and human and machine identities compounding, CyberArk’s partnership with Wiz introduces a simplified, strategic security solution to enterprises overwhelmed by the complexity and nuances of the cloud. Receiving this award is a tremendous honor that reaffirms the value of our ongoing partnership—but for me, the greatest fulfillment is knowing that we are consistently delivering meaningful, sustainable impact aligned with our security-first reputation.

This partnership highlights the future of identity-first security. Customers can rest assured that CyberArk and Wiz are investing in innovation that reduces complexity and strengthens organizations’ identity security postures at any point in their cloud journey.

What’s next?

Stay tuned for exciting updates, including additional integrations and tooling for enhanced visibility and remediation. These advancements will further solidify the partnership’s impact.

Upcoming, the integration will also extend support for discovery of local users—including cloud databases, Windows, Linux, and vSphere environments—providing even deeper visibility and control. It’s another important step in securing all cloud identities with the right level of privilege controls.

A call to action for security leaders

To fellow CISOs, CIOs, and security executives navigating an evolving threat landscape, the message is clear: proactively implement cloud security measures, or risk significant compromise.

CyberArk and Wiz are helping solve today’s multi-cloud security challenges and defining tomorrow’s standards. Through purpose-built integrations, expert curation, and an unwavering focus on customer-first outcomes, this partnership has created an ecosystem that redefines identity security to combat the evolving threat landscape.
