CyberArk announces new tools available on AWS Marketplace
Customers can now use AWS Marketplace to easily discover, buy, and deploy AI agent solutions using their AWS accounts, accelerating agent and agentic workflow development.
Alongside the CyberArk Secure AI Agents solution, SCA MCP Server and Agent Guard support CyberArk's commitment to help enterprises secure the privileged access of AI agents and address the growing risk of uncontrolled AI adoption. These tools – offered as part of the CyberArk Identity Security Platform – enhance the security of agentic AI workflows by limiting credential exposure and enforcing tighter access controls. According to CyberArk research1, 68 percent of organisations lack identity security controls for AI. Security teams struggle to maintain visibility and control across complex multi-cloud environments without these controls.
CyberArk SCA MCP Server is purpose-built to embed Zero Standing Privileges (ZSP) capabilities into native developer tools at speed and scale. It helps organisations secure access to cloud-native infrastructure, reducing risk from persistent standing entitlements, credential sprawl and unmanaged AI agents. CyberArk Agent Guard – also available as open source – enables developers to integrate AI agents securely with credential providers such as AWS Secrets Manager and CyberArk Secrets Manager.
'The promise of agentic AI can be undermined by inadequate security controls, which introduce risk and increase the likelihood of a breach', said Peretz Regev, Chief Product Officer at CyberArk. 'With SCA MCP Server and Agent Guard, organisations can implement Zero Standing Privileges to maintain more secure and scalable AI-first operations, helping to stop excessive standing access, privileges and permissions from becoming scattered through cloud environments. By offering them through AWS Marketplace, organisations will have greater access to these critical tools'.
Key benefits of CyberArk SCA MCP Server:
Enforces Zero Standing Privileges across multi-cloud environments.
Grants scoped access to AI assistants, such as Amazon Q and Anthropic's Claude, with robust audit trails and role-based access control (RBAC) enforcement.
Enables developers to efficiently request secure AI assistant access directly from their integrated development environments (IDE) or command line interfaces (CLI).
Implements least privilege controls for human and machine identities within CI/CD pipelines and agentic AI workflows.
Key benefits of CyberArk Agent Guard:
Monitors LLM and tool calls in real time.
Generates intuitive graphs for advanced analysis.
Logs tool inputs, arguments, and performance data for metadata capture.
Ensures compatibility with multiple AI frameworks.
Populates API keys and secrets as environment variables.
Supports secret providers, including CyberArk Secrets Manager and AWS Secrets Manager.
With the availability of AI Agents and Tools in AWS Marketplace, customers can significantly accelerate their procurement process to drive AI innovation, reducing the time needed for vendor evaluations and complex negotiations. With centralised purchasing using AWS accounts, customers maintain visibility and control over licensing, payments, and access through AWS.

Can gold be classified as an 'alternative asset' within an investor's portfolio?
In recent years, institutional investors have increasingly turned to alternative assets in pursuit of higher returns, broader diversification, and insulation from traditional market cycles. Yet, these benefits often come with trade-offs — namely, limited liquidity, delayed valuations, and vulnerability to economic shocks that may not be immediately priced in. Against this backdrop, a recent World Gold Council report suggests a rethinking of gold's role—not just as a traditional safe haven, but as a strategic component within the evolving landscape of alternative investing. While gold is not always classified as an 'alternative asset,' it possesses characteristics that make it uniquely suited to complement such portfolios. It is highly liquid, exhibits low correlation with most asset classes, and has a proven track record of resilience during periods of systemic stress. These attributes position gold as a natural counterbalance to the illiquidity and opacity that often characterise private market investments. To quantify gold's value in a diversified portfolio, the report employs a robust Monte Carlo simulation using 20 years of historical data. The findings are clear: portfolios that include a 5–8 per cent allocation to gold consistently outperform those without it in terms of risk-adjusted returns. Gold reduces volatility, cushions drawdowns, and enhances overall portfolio efficiency. For example, in a 20-year simulation, portfolios with gold experienced a maximum drawdown of –38.8 per cent, compared to –43.2 per cent without it. Even in shorter timeframes, gold's inclusion improved Sharpe ratios and reduced downside risk. 'To investors, public and private markets exist along a continuum of liquidity, returns, and volatility. The difference is one of timing and access. Gold exists in this continuum, not because it mimics public or private assets, but because its attributes bridge across both,' said Marissa Salim, Senior Research Lead, APAC at the World Gold Council. The analysis goes further by stress-testing portfolios under four macroeconomic shock scenarios: rate hikes, inflation spikes, equity crashes, and credit spread widening. In every case, gold helped reduce portfolio losses by 50 to 90 basis points. These results underscore gold's role as a reliable shock absorber—especially when both traditional and alternative assets come under simultaneous pressure. But gold's value extends beyond numbers. The report introduces the concept of a 'portfolio continuum,' where public and private markets are not seen as binary choices but as points along a spectrum of liquidity, returns, and volatility. In this continuum, gold serves as a bridge. It trades with the immediacy of public markets yet offers the defensive stability often sought in private strategies. This duality makes gold particularly valuable in today's environment, where private market liquidity is tightening and exit timelines are lengthening. Indeed, the report highlights a notable slowdown in private market deal activity and IPOs, which has created a bottleneck in capital redistribution. Innovations like GP-led secondaries and continuation funds are emerging to address these challenges, but they do not eliminate the underlying issue: capital remains locked for longer, and access to cash is less predictable. Gold, by contrast, provides immediate liquidity and flexibility—qualities that are increasingly scarce in private markets. In essence, gold is not a replacement for private credit or equity, but a strategic complement. It addresses the blind spots of alternative investments—liquidity constraints, valuation lags, and delayed responses to market stress. As portfolios become more complex and span a wider range of asset classes, gold offers a quiet but powerful form of stability. It is the connective tissue in a portfolio that must perform across cycles, across asset types, and across market regimes.

Your Career Horoscope for July 27, 2025
Find daily astrological predictions for all sun signs for July 27. We recommend reading the horoscopes for your rising sign. Aries Career Horoscope Away from the noise of the working week, the Moon's return to your work sector today will make it easier to hear yourself think while getting a better sense of perspective. With the Moon not only still here when you move into the new working week but into Mars' last full week in your work sector, over the next few days this will see the momentum build, while it is when they align in two days that this will really energise things on the job front. Taurus Career Horoscope A combination of the Moon's return to a playful and creative part of your chart and the Sun still separating from a clash with Pluto that over the last few days has put your work/life balance under pressure, makes this the right reminder at the right time. It is over the weekend that this gives you a reminder to put some guardrails in place, knowing that Mars is just days away from returning to your work sector and from kicking off what could be the busiest months of the year. Gemini Career Horoscope The weekend is always a valuable chance to regroup and especially as there is a lot to unpack after not only an active week across the income, work and career fronts, but where there have been some big changes. With the brakes now off work and job matters and the pace starting to pick up, it was the Moon's transit through your income sector just as the Sun left, that leaves you with everything needed to line up for next week's lucrative developments. Click here to follow our WhatsApp channel for tarot readings, love, health, career, and Chinese horoscopes delivered to your phone daily! Cancer Career Horoscope By the time the Moon leaves your income sector today, it will have formed a friendly aspect to all five planets in your career sector, as it does with each monthly visit. The difference this time is that the Sun has been doing the Sun and as a New Moon, this has been both a window into and helped to energise the opening of both new doors and the doors to the past, second chances and untapped potential on the income and career fronts. Leo Career Horoscope With 16 years of near continuous planetary activity in your work sector having ended earlier in the year and six years of continuous planetary activity on the career front just three weeks ago, you have a rare chance to keep your work hat and professional hats off over the weekend. After a Full Moon on the job front earlier in the month and the Moon having spent last weekend in your career sector, today there is a chance to take a break from it all. Virgo Career Horoscope As she reaches her last weekend in your career sector and prepares to leave next week, Venus has created enough distance from the planets on the job and career fronts that will stay on to keep the momentum going, that she is now doing her own thing. As the planet of money, desire and attraction and as she is on a mission to exploit and attract professional potential and the money, the Moon's return to your income sector in two days will help with that. Libra Career Horoscope Halfway between the Sun's departure from your career sector four days ago and Venus' return in four days, Jupiter's first weekend on his own since returning last month to begin your biggest year for professional growth and expansion in over a decade is a chance to stand back and regroup. Where the Sun has left you with a realistic starting point, before Venus returns to exploit and attract opportunities and potential now, there is a chance to pull back and reassess your professional goals and aspirations. Scorpio Career Horoscope The Sun only returned to your career sector four days ago, but as he settles into his first weekend and the Mercury ends his first full week in retrograde motion here, the Moon leaves and wraps up a New Moon that has seen a lot packed into just a few short days. By the time the Moon leaves today, it will have formed a friendly aspect to all of the five planets in your work sector and with the Sun starting to do the same, with insight into the new doors and those opening to the past, second chances and untapped potential across the job and career fronts. Sagittarius Career Horoscope While the Moon's return to your career sector over the weekend and away from the noise of the working week will initially make it easier to hear yourself think, by the time it aligns with Mars for the last time before the warrior planet leaves, the new working week will be in full swing. For now, this is a chance to start tuning into your professional instincts and imagination, knowing this will come in handy over the coming days. Capricorn Career Horoscope As she reaches her last weekend in your work sector, Venus has created enough distance from Uranus who returned just 48 hours behind her earlier in the week, to be doing her own thing while knowing there is back up. With the Moon set to return to your career sector before Venus leaves next week, it is during her final days and in the heart of the new working week that she will be able to exploit and attract the most potential across the income, work and career fronts. Aquarius Career Horoscope Halfway between the Sun's departure from your work sector four days ago and Venus' return in four days, there is a chance to stand back and regroup during what is Jupiter's first weekend on his own since returning in early June to begin your biggest year for job growth and expansion in over a decade. It is when Venus and Jupiter return next week and the element of luck and the laws of attraction come together that the real chance to exploit and attract work and job matters will begin. Until then, with a chance first to reassess your goals and aspirations. Pisces Career Horoscope By the time the Moon leaves your work sector today and wraps up the New Moon two days ago, a huge amount of water will have passed under the bridge. As well as aligning with the Sun to create a New Moon and with Mercury to get a read on the doors that in retrograde motion he is opening to the past, the Moon will have formed a friendly aspect to all five planets in your income sector. With the Sun and Mercury already starting to do the same, this leaves you with a window into the doors opening to new and untapped potential on both the income and job fronts.

♏ Scorpio Daily Horoscope for July 28, 2025
Love There's fire in your heart today, Scorpio—but make sure it doesn't scorch the people closest to you. Passion runs high, and so do expectations. If you're in a relationship, be mindful of your tone during disagreements. Singles might feel drawn to someone mysterious or intense, but take time to understand their emotional landscape first. Career You're in problem-solving mode and can impress higher-ups with your strategic thinking. However, avoid power struggles with colleagues—your strength lies in persuasion, not pressure. A well-timed conversation today could set the stage for a career breakthrough later this week. Finance Today's not the best time for risky investments or borrowing. Stick to what you know and consider reevaluating a previous financial commitment. There may be hidden costs you've overlooked. Health You're physically strong today, but mentally, you could feel stretched thin. Unplug from intense conversations when needed. A short solo walk or time by water can help you recharge. Other Important Note Your aura is magnetic—use it wisely. The energy you project today will be mirrored back to you in surprising ways.
