IBM Recognized as Privileged Identity Management Leader by Forrester

By MRINALINI RANJAN posted Thu June 10, 2021 01:30 AM

  

With so many recent high-profile breaches accomplished through the compromise of passwords on privileged accounts, having a robust Privileged Access Management (PAM) strategy is becoming imperative. IBM can help you achieve this, and in fact, has recently been recognized as a leader in the Privileged Identity Management (PIM) space by Forrester Research Inc. among a select group of 10 companies across 24 criteria for evaluation. 

The Forrester WaveTM: Privileged Identity Management (PIM), Q4 2020 evaluation highlights Leaders, Strong Performers, Contenders, and Challengers. In this report, Forrester shines a spotlight on Thycotic, which powers IBM Security’s OEM offering to the PAM market. Our partnership combines Thycotic’s technology with the legacy, support, services, and integrations of IBM Security. Thycotic's recent merger with Centrify has further strengthened this partnership. The other vendors in the assessment include ARCON, BeyondTrust, CyberArk, ManageEngine, Micro Focus, One Identity, Symantec, and WALLIX.

Highlights of the report include:

  • Why customers should look for solutions that deliver an intuitive user experience with an integrated PIM platform

  • Why PIM solutions should provide capabilities that align to a least privilege model and just-in-time access

  • How the definition of a privileged user has expanded to include non-IT users and machine identities

  • How PIM solutions should support new use cases such as support DevOps teams, IT admins configuring cloud infrastructure, bots, IoT, and API-driven workloads

Classing us as a top leader along with BeyondTrust and CyberArk, Forrester has praised IBM’s fully integrated environment and intuitive user experience, out of the box reports (over 130 built-in reports) and customizable dashboards. They also mention our that our deployments are fast and easy compared to other large PIM providers.
