CyberArk, a leader in identity security, has revealed a new partnership with SentinelOne®, the renowned AI-driven cybersecurity platform, through an integration of their systems designed to protect against privileged access misuse. This collaboration combines the advanced endpoint detection and response (EDR) capabilities of SentinelOne’s Singularity™ Endpoint solution with CyberArk’s Endpoint Privilege Manager. Together, these industry leaders deliver a robust security solution that accelerates threat detection and response, leveraging unified AI-enhanced security analytics for a more comprehensive defense framework.
Enhancing Threat Detection with AI and Identity Data Integration
The integration introduces CyberArk identity data into the SentinelOne Singularity platform, extending its use for AI-driven Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) and Extended Detection and Response (XDR) capabilities. This integration provides customers with enhanced context and correlation for more effective threat detection, response, and automation. With these advanced tools, businesses can strengthen their ability to detect malicious activity and streamline their incident response.
SentinelOne and CyberArk: A Unified Approach to Cybersecurity
“SentinelOne recognizes that cybersecurity is a team sport,” said Melissa K. Smith, Vice President, Strategic Technology Partnerships and Initiatives, SentinelOne. “Our integration with CyberArk brings together two market leaders in endpoint security and identity protection, empowering customers to mitigate the risk of privileged identity attacks with a flexible, open solution.”
Industry Insight from Maximus
Nigel Miller, VP and Deputy Chief Information Security Officer at Maximus, a prominent global provider of health and human services, shared his perspective: “We use SentinelOne and CyberArk as part of our strategy to build resilient cyber defenses. With our operations becoming increasingly digital and interconnected, organizations like Maximus face a constant wave of attacks targeting endpoints, identities, and cloud workloads. The only effective security strategy is defense-in-depth. The integration between SentinelOne and CyberArk will enable us to quickly identify and respond to credential theft attempts and prevent privileged access misuse—all with actionable, real-time visibility.”

Layered Protection: Key Benefits of the CyberArk and SentinelOne Integration
Organizations adopting this integrated approach will benefit from a multi-layered defense, including:
- Ransomware and Credential Theft Detection: Through privilege and resource access control, continuous monitoring, and advanced analysis, businesses can prevent endpoint attacks.
- Accelerated Threat Response: Enhanced threat intelligence and visibility allow for faster detection, mitigation, and response to cyber threats.
- User Productivity with Strong Security: By automatically elevating program access based on policies, removing standing admin rights, and enforcing application controls and credential rotation, organizations maintain a balance between productivity and security.
- Simplified Operations and Faster Time-to-Value: With SaaS-based solutions, the deployment process is streamlined, ensuring faster realization of security benefits.
Driving Security in a Multi-Cloud World
Clarence Hinton, Chief Strategy Officer at CyberArk, emphasized the importance of identity-centric security controls: “In today’s multi-cloud environment, organizations must focus on securing identities. Preventing cyber attackers from gaining access to critical systems requires the implementation of robust identity-centric endpoint security measures. Our integration with SentinelOne allows customers to detect and prevent attacks, such as privileged credential theft and ransomware. By combining the complementary strengths of EDR and endpoint identity security, we enhance visibility and strengthen defenses against attacks that exploit privileged access.”
This strategic integration provides a proactive, unified approach to safeguarding organizations from the rising threat of cyberattacks targeting privileged identities, ensuring stronger, more efficient defense strategies.
