NSE Cogencis enhances security and efficiency with CyberArk

NSE Cogencis, a top provider of financial data in India, aimed to automate and secure privileged access to its systems while adopting a passwordless, Zero Trust approach to strengthen its identity-driven security

CyberArk has revealed that NSE Cogencis has deployed the CyberArk Identity Security Platform to protect access to critical infrastructure, enhance operational efficiency, and strengthen compliance readiness.

A leading provider of data, news, and analytics to financial market professionals in India, NSE Cogencis aimed to automate and protect privileged access to its databases, servers, and other internal systems used by employees and vendors. Additionally, the company sought to adopt a passwordless approach based on Zero Trust principles, reinforcing its identity-centric security framework.

NSE Cogencis implemented CyberArk Privilege Cloud and CyberArk Remote Access, components of the CyberArk Identity Security Platform to protect privileged credentials, isolate high-risk sessions and monitor access to data centers. Every privileged activity is dynamically monitored and recorded to enable efficient incident response and meet compliance needs. Just-in-time access allows IT administrators to enjoy streamlined and secure access to targeted systems while multi-layered security controls protect the organization’s infrastructure.

“With CyberArk, we have implemented the principles of least privilege along with role-based access policies and credential vaulting and rotation. This has strengthened our defense against password-based attacks and risks stemming from unauthorized access. Adopting an identity-first security approach has also enabled us to improve the productivity of our IT team so that it can better focus on key operations,” said Milind Patil, VP of IT at NSE Cogencis.

“We are pleased that NS E Cogencis has chosen CyberArk to secure its critical assets with a modern privileged access management program,” said Rohan Vaidya, Area Vice President, South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation & India at CyberArk. “As organizations continue to experience the proliferation of both human and machine identities, CyberArk is committed to offering them the highest level of control, management and security.”
