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.

Non-Human Identities (NHIs) are identities used by machines, applications and automated processes. They rely on credentials — such as API keys, tokens, or certificates — to authenticate and access systems, services and data. The exponential growth of NHIs in modern IT infrastructure makes securing them an operational necessity. NHIs are gradually outnumbering human users in most enterprise environments, and without proper oversight, they can introduce many security vulnerabilities.

Keeper Security offers leading cybersecurity solutions, including password management and Privileged Access Management (PAM), trusted by millions of users and over 100,000 organizations to protect their credentials and enhance their security. Keeper securely stores and autofills your login credentials, payment details and other sensitive information, ensuring you are the only one who can access your Keeper Vault. The main difference between the Keeper Browser Extension and KeeperFill is their function.

As enterprises scale their infrastructure across on-premises, hybrid and cloud environments, traditional Identity and Access Management (IAM) tools are struggling to keep up. Legacy Privileged Access Management (PAM) platforms were built to support static infrastructures and were not designed for today’s multi-cloud environments. They have been shown to increase complexity, create gaps in security coverage and cause significant budget strain.

The Governor’s Technology Office (GTO) of the State of Nevada recently released an “After Action Report” on the statewide ransomware attack that disrupted state systems for nearly one month in August 2025. The report details not only what happened but also the coordinated incident response from the GTO, vendors and law enforcement partners from local, state and federal agencies.
