Keeper Security Earns Top-Tier Recognition from GigaOm and ISG for Identity Security Innovation and Leadership

Two independent analyst firms place Keeper at the top of their market reports for enterprise password management and identity and access management

CHICAGO, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Keeper Security, the leading provider of zero-trust and zero-knowledge identity security, today announces it has earned top-tier recognition from two independent analyst firms in the same week. GigaOm designated Keeper a Leader in the Enduring Innovators quadrant of its Enterprise Password Management (EPM) Radar, and the overall quadrant leader. Information Services Group (ISG) named Keeper an Exemplary Provider in its Buyers Guide for Identity and Access Management (IAM) Platforms, placing Keeper among the top tier of IAM providers globally alongside Microsoft, AWS and Google Cloud.

GigaOm's evaluation focused on enterprise password management, where Keeper has now held a top position for five consecutive years. The Enduring Innovators designation is reserved for platforms that have earned their standing through architectural depth, and Keeper was recognized as advancing faster than the majority of the field. The assessment found breadth without obvious weak points, with particular recognition for its secrets management capabilities, official Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, and agentic and non-human identity governance. The firm described Keeper's platform as one that consolidates workforce vaulting, secrets management and machine-identity governance in one place, built for enterprises that need to govern every identity in their environment, regardless of type.

ISG's report evaluated the field of identity and access management more broadly, using a methodology that simulates the enterprise request for information process to score providers across product capability, platform and customer experience against a field that includes the industry's most established IAM providers. Keeper earned an overall performance score of 83% (A-), with its strongest performance in product capability at 85.4%, the dimension ISG uses to measure how well a platform addresses the functional requirements that drive enterprise IAM decisions. A customer experience score of 82.7% secured Keeper's Exemplary placement, reserved for providers that outperform the median across both criteria.

"Building a platform that governs identity end to end, from the credential in the vault to the AI agent requesting access to infrastructure, was a deliberate architectural decision we made years ago when most of the market was still solving one problem at a time," said Darren Guccione, CEO and Co-founder of Keeper Security. "The fact that two independent firms evaluated our platform and both placed us at the top, tells us that decision was right, and that the market is catching up to where we knew it needed to go."

Keeper Password Manager is the zero-trust and zero-knowledge credential vault that GigaOm evaluated. It protects passwords, passkeys and secrets for every user, human and non-human, across the enterprise. Keeper's full identity security platform builds on that foundation, extending into privileged access management and endpoint privilege management under a single cloud-native architecture. KeeperAI adds real-time threat detection across every privileged session, surfacing risk in seconds without requiring additional headcount or manual review. Together they represent what ISG's evaluation measured: a unified identity security platform capable of governing every user, machine, non-human identity and AI agent across the enterprise, that deploys in minutes and integrates with existing technology stacks without requiring a rip-and-replace overhaul.

The timing of this recognition reflects real pressure in the market. According to the Dark Reading State of Identity Security Survey, 40% of organizations currently run four or more disconnected identity products or platforms, and Keeper's own global research found that 96% of cybersecurity decision-makers say those disconnected tools are creating exploitable gaps in their security programs. Enterprises that have been managing identity security across four, five or six disconnected tools are actively looking for a way out, and independent analyst research is increasingly pointing them toward platforms that can govern all of it in one place.
