Classic PAM solutions weren’t built for today’s hybrid and cloud-first environments. More applications, identities, and entitlements mean more risk, and legacy tools simply can’t keep up.Security teams struggle with fragmented visibility, unable to trace identity-based risks across environments. Static access models lead to excessive privileges, where 99% of assigned permissions go unused—creating unnecessary attack surfaces. Access workflows are often riddled with multi-hop VPNs, credential sprawl, and manual approvals that slow users down while increasing risk. Privileged access has expanded far beyond IT admins- sensitive assets now live across virtual machines, cloud platforms, developer tools, databases, and SaaS apps.👉That means securing human and machine identities now requires coverage across both classic on-prem systems and modern cloud-native services.
