- As opposed to other cloud service providers who only provide a service but use 3rd-party technologies, CyberArk developed all the technologies it uses from scratch and only uses standard servers and routers (no 3rd-party technologies). This allows much more flexibility and rapid reaction to new threats and attack vectors as we do not have to wait for updates and patches – we do them ourselves immediately. In order to fight todays sophisticated and constantly changing attack patterns we have CyberArk’s 24x7 SOC - manned with security experts that can handle any attack in real time.

- We have defined process of incident response and an incident response team whose responsibilities include: Analysis of the security issue risk (based on Severity Matrix and CVSS), remediation and recommendation. SLA of handling the issue according to the risk level. In case the decision is to fix, the fix is like any standard feature\bug development, including validation (QA) and automation. Security bulletin - in case a security issue found risky, and requires patch, we have a mechanism of publishing "security bulleting" to our customers. This bulletin contains explanation of the issue, and mitigation steps (including patch if needed).

Energy efficiency
- Energy-efficient datacentres
- Yes
- Description of energy efficient datacentres
- CyberArk SaaS solutions are hosted on AWS. AWS is continuously working to increase the efficiency of our facilities, and our scale allows us to achieve higher resource utilization and efficiency than typical on-premises data centers. When possible, we incorporate direct evaporative technology for cooling our data centers, reducing energy and water consumption. During cooler months, outside air is directly supplied to the data center without using any water. During the hottest months of the year, outside air is cooled through an evaporative process using water before being pushed into the server rooms, and we have optimized our cooling systems to minimize water usage. AWS has also demonstrated our commitment to water stewardship by using reclaimed or recycled water instead of potable water in multiple regions, and we are working with local utilities to expand the use of reclaimed water.

We recognize the importance of reducing our impact on the environment and maximizing sustainable business practices. As an enterprise software company, our environmental footprint is smaller than organizations of comparable size in other industries. Most of our IT infrastructure runs in a public cloud environment, which reduces our total environmental impact dramatically. As we think about our data center planning, one of the considerations that we take into account is the environmental footprint and our overall computing capacity, which includes moving 85% of our applications to SaaS. In early 2021, we expanded our local efforts and created a global environmental team to implement a more comprehensive environmental employee-led stewardship program, an important part of our ESG Program. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has oversight over our Environmental Stewardship as part of the ESG Program.
