advanced analytics and Identity-as-a-Service offerings to
protect and enable the agile enterprise
Mordecai Rosen
LAS VEGAS, Nov. 16, 2016 – CA
WORLD ’16 – CA Technologies
today announced a new behavior
analytics solution that integrates
with CA Privileged Access Manager
(PAM). Called CA Threat Analytics
for PAM, the product features machine-learning
capabilities for better
threat detection and breach prevention
associated with privileged
users. CA also announced CA Identity
Service, a new, turn-key identity-as-a-service
solution, to address
identity and access management
(IAM) needs for both on-premises
and cloud-based applications.
“By applying CA’s unmatched
self-learning behavior analytics to
privileged user activity, CA can help
CISOs with their biggest challenge:
staying one step ahead of the bad
actors,” said Mordecai Rosen, senior
vice president and general
manager, CA Security
business. “Going beyond
protection, CA is extending
secure business operations
with CA Identity
Service to support deeply
embedded on-premises
systems while taking advantage
of the agility of cloud applications
and services.”
Setting New Standards in Threat
Detection, Breach Prevention and
IDaaS for Hybrid IT Environments
Available today, CA Threat Analytics
for PAM models privileged user
behavior and evaluates risk based
on factors such as a user location,
time and duration of activity, the
data being accessed and the user’s
track record for security and past
behavior. When a breach or threat is
detected, the system automatically
triggers controls to mitigate risks,
such as starting session recording,
initiating a stronger authentication
procedure or alerting security system
and operations.
In a recent global survey conducted
by Coleman Parkes for CA,
82 percent of respondents
said identity-centric security
is critical to the business.*
CA Identity Service
addresses the need for
a modern, hybrid IAM solution
– giving businesses
the agility to quickly and
securely adopt cloud ap-

plications and services alongside
their on-premises applications
controlled by CA Single Sign-On,
managing everything from a single
launch pad. CA Identity Service balances
the demand for security, agility
and a positive user experience.
“We see our customers’ businesses
moving increasingly to a hybrid IT
environment. It’s clear we need to
help them with an identity and access
management solution that supports
both their cloud-based and
on-premises applications,” said Ed
Pascua, senior vice president at Simeio
Solutions. “CA Identity
Service offers the flexibility and
management we need to meet the
demands of our customers’ hybrid
enterprise. CA’s Identity Service is
an excellent tool that helps Simeio
