In today’s digitally connected world, organizations rely on a diverse network of users, applications and infrastructure to operate efficiently and securely. As that network expands across cloud, hybrid and multi-vendor environments, managing privileged access has become increasingly complex, and more critical.
At the same time, attackers continue to leverage sophisticated campaigns targeting credentials, not just to gain initial access, but to escalate privileges, bypass detection and take control of sensitive systems. This places greater responsibility on organizations to ensure that the right individuals have access to the right systems and the right data at the right time.
Privileged Access Management (PAM) helps address this challenge by enabling organizations to control, monitor and restrict access to critical infrastructure. However, as environments evolve with cloud adoption, remote work and growing automation, traditional access controls often struggle to keep pace.
To better understand how organizations are defending modern environments, Keeper Security conducted a global survey of 4,000 IT and security professionals at organizations with 250 or more employees. This report highlights their perspectives on PAM: the motivations driving adoption, the obstacles to effective deployment and the features considered essential for securing access in today’s dynamic operating environments.
