As federal agencies face increasingly sophisticated cyber threats, securing high-impact systems and sensitive unclassified data has become a top priority. To support this need, Keeper Security has achieved FedRAMP Authorization at the High Impact Level for its Keeper Security Government Cloud (KSGC) platform, expanding its ability to protect the U.S. federal government’s most sensitive unclassified workloads.

The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) introduced its Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program in early 2020 to strengthen cybersecurity across the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) and ensure that contractors handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) meet strict cybersecurity standards defined by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

As cyber threats grow more advanced, organizations need more than firewalls and traditional password policies to protect sensitive data. Two essential parts of a modern identity security strategy are Identity and Access Management (IAM) and Identity Governance and Administration (IGA). While IAM focuses on verifying identities and enabling secure access to systems, IGA ensures that access rights are appropriate and continuously monitored.

Managing user access across the entire employee lifecycle has become increasingly complex for modern IT and security teams. From provisioning new hires and modifying existing permissions during role changes to quickly deprovisioning departing employees, organizations must maintain granular access controls without disrupting operations. To keep up with the growth of hybrid and remote work, modern Identity Lifecycle Management (ILM) is essential for organizations to mitigate identity-based security risks.

According to ConductorOne’s 2024 Identity Security Outlook Report, 24% of security leaders say keeping up with new technological advances and attack vectors is their biggest obstacle. Addressing this challenge requires modern solutions that can adapt quickly, centralize visibility and protect privileged access.

Non-human identities have become one of the most overlooked yet exploited attack surfaces in the modern enterprise. NHIs are entities that interact with systems and services but are not tied to a physical user. As organizations expand across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, thousands of machine-based identities are silently running critical operations, yet most are unmanaged, invisible and vulnerable to abuse.

The latest updates to KeeperAI threat detection introduce meaningful updates across PAM resources, PAM configuration settings, gateway settings and session history, providing an enhanced security layer within the web vault architecture. KeeperAI automatically monitors and analyzes SSH sessions in real-time to identify suspicious or malicious activity, ensuring that high-risk sessions are automatically terminated and all user activity is analyzed and categorized.

Keeper Password Manager has been recognized as a global cybersecurity leader by users on G2, the world’s largest and most trusted software marketplace. The G2 Winter 2026 Reports highlight Keeper’s strong performance and continued growth across multiple complex cybersecurity categories and regions, including KeeperPAM’s debut in the Privileged Access Management (PAM) reports.
