How does CyberArk EPM support the security of remote workers?

CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager (EPM) enhances the security of remote workers primarily by enforcing policies on endpoint devices, irrespective of their physical location. This functionality ensures that employees can securely access necessary resources and applications while working remotely, as the same security protocols and access controls are applied regardless of whether the device is within the office perimeter or elsewhere.

This capability is crucial in today's work environment, where remote work is increasingly common, and it helps organizations maintain compliance with security standards and regulations. By consistently applying security policies, EPM mitigates risks such as unauthorized access or privilege escalation, which could compromise sensitive data or systems.

The other options do not effectively address the unique security challenges posed by remote work. Requiring constant VPN access can limit flexibility and may not be practical for all remote work scenarios. Automatically updating software can enhance security but does not directly pertain to enforcing user access policies. Limiting access to only office devices is counterproductive for remote workers, as it restricts their ability to work from various locations and device types. Therefore, enforcing policies on endpoint devices is the most comprehensive and effective approach to securing remote work environments.
