CyberArk: privilege security for every identity, human and machine
CyberArk secures what attackers actually want: admin accounts, service accounts, API keys and secrets. Kommando is one of the most decorated CyberArk partners in EMEA, and we deliver it across the Nordics.
Start with an assessment: see every privileged account before you change anything.
What is CyberArk?
Built around one idea: protect privilege
CyberArk is an identity security platform built around one idea: privilege is what attackers are after, so privilege is what you protect. The platform vaults and rotates privileged credentials, manages secrets for applications and DevOps pipelines, removes local admin rights from endpoints, and finds over-privileged identities in your cloud.
CyberArk has been the reference platform for Privileged Access Management (PAM) for two decades. Since February 2026 it is part of Palo Alto Networks, where it forms the identity security pillar of the portfolio. For customers, the platform and the roadmap continue.

Privileged Access Management
Secrets Management
Applications hold more credentials than people do: API keys, certificates, database passwords, tokens in CI/CD pipelines. Secrets management gives every one of them a lifecycle: stored centrally, rotated automatically, never hardcoded in a script again. See our secrets management service.
Endpoint Privilege Security
Local admin rights are how one clicked link becomes a compromised machine. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager removes standing admin rights and elevates specific applications instead, so users keep working and malware loses its favourite tool. More on endpoint privilege management.
Cloud Security (CIEM)
Cloud permissions grow in one direction: up. CyberArk's cloud entitlements capabilities analyse permissions across AWS, Azure and GCP, find identities that can do far more than they ever do, and cut them back to what they need. More on cloud infrastructure entitlement management.
The threat landscape
Why machine identities are the new attack surface
Every machine identity holds a credential. Almost none of them can change its own password. That’s the gap CyberArk closes, and it’s usually far bigger than anyone expects.
In organisations we’ve assessed across finance and energy, the finding that gets attention is rarely the admin accounts. It’s the service account with a password last rotated in 2016.

The partnership
Kommando × CyberArk
Kommando is CyberArk’s 2024 Certification Partner of the Year in EMEA. Before that: EMEA Services Delivery Partner of the Year 2023, and customer experience recognitions in 2018 and 2021.
Awards aside, the point is simpler: our consultants have delivered CyberArk in production, at scale, in regulated Nordic environments. We know where the projects get stuck, and we know how to get them unstuck.
Our approach
How Kommando delivers CyberArk
Assessment
We map your privileged accounts, service accounts and secrets before anyone touches a vault. Often as part of a broader Identity Advisory engagement. The list is always longer than the one you had.
Design
Vault architecture, access policies, rotation schedules and the onboarding order that gives you risk reduction early instead of at the end.
Implementation
Certified consultants deploy the platform and onboard accounts in controlled waves, starting with the highest-risk systems.
Managed services
We run, tune and extend the platform after go-live. Useful when the team that owns PAM is two people with other jobs too.
In organisations we've assessed across finance and energy, the finding that gets attention is rarely the admin accounts. It's the service account with a password last rotated in 2016.

Frequently asked questions
Questions we actually get
Which consultancies in Norway deliver CyberArk PAM projects?
Kommando is a certified CyberArk partner delivering PAM projects across Norway, Sweden and Denmark, and CyberArk's 2024 Certification Partner of the Year in EMEA. We handle advisory, implementation and managed services from offices in Oslo, Gothenburg, Stockholm and Copenhagen.
What is secrets management?
Secrets management is the practice of storing, rotating and controlling access to non-human credentials: API keys, certificates, database passwords and tokens used by applications and pipelines. Instead of secrets sitting hardcoded in scripts and config files, they live in a central vault with automatic rotation and a full audit trail.
How does privileged access management work?
PAM puts privileged credentials in a hardened vault, rotates them automatically, and brokers sessions so administrators never handle the actual password. Every session is logged and can be recorded. The result: stolen credentials expire quickly, and you can prove who did what.
What is vaultless PAM, and when does it make sense?
Vaultless PAM grants just-in-time access without storing standing credentials in a vault, which suits cloud-native and ephemeral environments. In practice most organisations need both models: vaulting for long-lived privileged accounts and just-in-time access where infrastructure is short-lived. We help you find the right mix.
How do CyberArk and Silverfort work together?
CyberArk manages and vaults privileged credentials; Silverfort enforces MFA on every authentication, including the legacy systems a vault can't reach. Several of our clients run both, and we implement both.
