How can administrators monitor application performance using CyberArk EPM?

Monitoring application performance using CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager (EPM) is effectively achieved through logging and real-time insights provided by its reporting features. This approach allows administrators to gather detailed information regarding how applications are functioning in real-time, enabling them to identify any performance issues, assess application usage patterns, and respond to potential security incidents proactively.

The reporting features in CyberArk EPM are designed to compile and present data in a way that offers a comprehensive view of application performance and usage. By analyzing logs and insights generated by the system, administrators can gain valuable visibility into various metrics and activities associated with applications, which supports data-driven decision-making.

Other methods mentioned, such as periodic audits and user surveys, while beneficial for some aspects of application assessment, do not provide the immediate and detailed metrics needed for proactive performance monitoring. Similarly, manually tracking application responses can be time-consuming, prone to human error, and often lacks the depth of analysis provided by the automated reporting features. Third-party performance tracking tools may offer additional insights but are typically outside the specific capabilities and integration of CyberArk EPM, which is aimed at providing a unified approach to application and endpoint security management.
