ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Dec. 07, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- One Identity, a proven leader in helping organizations get identity and access management (IAM) right, today announced that it has been named a Visionary in Gartner’s 2018 Magic Quadrant for Privileged Access Management. After evaluation, Gartner recognized One Identity as a Visionary, based on its completeness of vision and ability to execute.
The methods that hackers use to gain access to systems and data are constantly evolving; but, ultimately, hackers want access to privileged accounts as they allow virtually unlimited access to critical network assets, applications, and data. In many recent, high-profile breaches, privileged accounts have been exploited because existing PAM fails to keep up with the growing threat. As the number of privileged accounts as well as the users requiring access continue to grow, so do the volume and types of attacks.
One Identity simplifies PAM by securing, controlling, monitoring, analyzing and governing privileged access to critical organizational data and applications. Our PAM solutions enable you to provide the full credential when necessary or limit access with granular delegation for least privileged access. All privileged activity is recorded, down to the keystroke for real-time analysis of activity and data.
“As organizations face an increasingly volatile cyber threat landscape in which hackers’ methods to penetrate corporate systems and data continue to evolve, effective privileged access management has never been more critical,” said David Earhart, president & general manager, One Identity. “At One Identity, we’re unwaveringly committed to providing simple yet powerful solutions to make implementing and using PAM solutions easier for administrators and more effective in protecting businesses. To us, being recognized as a Visionary in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Privileged Access Management and a Leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Identity Governance and Administration validates our continued dedication to our innovation and growth across the IAM market.”
