Benefits of Migrating from CentOS Linux to Red Hat Enterprise Linux
The CentOS Project will discontinue updates and releases of CentOS Linux® between 2021 and 2024. As a result, CentOS Linux users must migrate to a new operating system to continue receiving updates, patches, and new features. While implementing a new operating system may seem tedious, it also presents an opportunity to reassess your organization’s needs and choose a platform that will better support your business now and in the future.
A consistent, intelligent operating foundation for modern IT and enterprise hybrid cloud deployments, Red Hat® Enterprise Linux delivers optimal benefits for your organization. Because CentOS Linux is derived from Red Hat Enterprise Linux sources, you can continue to use many of the same techniques and elements while gaining more features, tools, support, and value.
Compared to organizations that use unpaid alternatives like CentOS Linux, Red Hat Enterprise Linux users experience:
- 16% lower three-year cost of operations.
- 32% more efficient IT infrastructure teams.
- 35% faster development life cycles.
- 81% less unplanned downtime.

Can SaaS Deliver Nirvana for Overtaxed Security Teams?
Developers need, want and deserve simple security solutions that don’t slow them down. But, with each code breach and supply chain attack security teams find it increasingly imperative to secure the credentials and secrets used by all applications to access resources. It doesn’t get any easier when security teams face resource challenges and skills gaps. But are innovative SaaS based secrets management solutions the answer for overtaxed security teams?
In this webinar we will explore:
- How SaaS based secret management solutions can deliver on their promise of increased simplicity for developers and for security and operations teams.
- Approaches for giving developers a native experience with solution such as Kubernetes Secrets and AWS Secrets Manager while giving security teams centralized management, rotation, and control of secrets.
- Demos of new SaaS based solutions from CyberArk which get closer to delivering nirvana to developers and security teams.
Securing Application Identities: CyberArk Success Stories
For years, security teams have trusted CyberArk to help them secure human credentials with privileged access management (PAM) solutions. But non-human identities have exploded thanks to digital transformation efforts like cloud migration, adoption of DevOps methodologies and introduction of automation processes. In fact, a survey report from CyberArk found that machine identities now outnumber human identities by a factor of 45x.
This collection of customer stories explores how some of our current customers have used CyberArk Secrets Manager to help them secure secrets across a wide variety of application types — from DevOps tools and CI/CD pipelines to RPA workloads and commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) applications and everything in between. Check out these stories to learn more about how real-world security teams are securing their application identities across their enterprise.
The CISO Mandate: Accelerate Securing All Application Identities
Increasingly, executives are asking their security teams to secure all application secrets – everywhere across their entire organization. A potentially daunting task.
Where do security teams begin? This eBook outlines a practical systematic approach and blueprint for organizations to take to enhance the security of their entire application portfolio. It addresses applications of all types from zOS and COTS, to Kubernetes.
Note, while focused on securing credentials used by applications, it leverages CyberArk’s holistic blueprint and methodology for securing the credentials used by both human users as well as applications and other non-human identities.
Securing Non-human Identities and Managing Secrets in Multi-cloud Environments
Cloud migration and digital transformation have led to an explosion of non-human identities that need to be secured across multiple cloud and hybrid environments. And more identities mean more secrets that need to be secured, rotated and managed. That’s where SaaS-based secrets management can help.
In this eBook, you’ll learn about:
- The challenges security teams face when managing access for non-human identities in multi-cloud environments.
- How holistic secrets management can provide visibility and improve efficiency for security teams.
- The five benefits of SaaS secrets management.
- How CyberArk Conjur Cloud can help you secure secrets in multi-cloud and hybrid environments.
