Keeper Security Achieves Top Recognition in Identity Security

Keeper Security, known for its zero-trust and zero-knowledge identity security solutions, has received significant recognition from two prominent independent analyst firms—GigaOm and Information Services Group (ISG).

Exceptional Accolades

On September 1, 2026, Keeper announced that GigaOm has placed it as a leader in the Enduring Innovators quadrant of its Enterprise Password Management (EPM) Radar, recognizing it as the quadrant leader overall. Concurrently, ISG named Keeper an Exemplary Provider in its Buyers Guide for Identity and Access Management (IAM) Platforms, positioning the company within the elite group of IAM providers globally, alongside tech giants like Microsoft, AWS, and Google Cloud.

GigaOm’s Comprehensive Evaluation

GigaOm’s assessment focused explicitly on enterprise password management, where Keeper has maintained a top position for an impressive five consecutive years. This recognition, titled “Enduring Innovators,” is granted to platforms that demonstrate exceptional architectural depth. In its findings, GigaOm commended Keeper for progressing more rapidly than many competitors in the space. The report noted the platform's wide-ranging capabilities without evident weaknesses, especially praising Keeper's management of secrets, official Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, and governance for agentic and non-human identities.

ISG’s Methodical Approach to Recognition

On the other hand, ISG's report takes a broader look at identity and access management. The firm simulated the enterprise's request for information process to evaluate and score providers based on their product capabilities, platform, and customer experience, with Keeper achieving an impressive overall performance score of 83% (A-). Among its best performances was in the product capability category, where it scored 85.4%. The customer experience aspect yielded a score of 82.7%, solidifying Keeper's classification as an Exemplary Provider.

Strategic Architectural Decisions

Darren Guccione, the CEO and Co-founder of Keeper Security, emphasized that designing a platform capable of comprehensive identity governance was a conscious architectural decision made years ago. While many players in the market focused on isolated issues, Keeper aimed to deliver a cohesive solution. Guccione remarked, “The fact that two independent firms evaluated our platform and both placed us at the top confirms that our initial decision was correct and that the market is gradually aligning itself with our vision.”

Keeper's Unified Identity Security Platform

The Keeper Password Manager, which serves as a zero-trust and zero-knowledge credential vault, is what GigaOm evaluated. It safeguards passwords, passkeys, and secrets for both human and non-human users across enterprises. The platform's integrity extends into areas such as privileged access management and endpoint privilege management—all consolidated under a single cloud-native architecture. Furthermore, KeeperAI introduces real-time threat detection throughout every privileged session, promptly identifying risks without the need for additional personnel or manual oversight. ISG’s evaluation highlighted Keeper’s dynamic capabilities, describing it as a unified identity security platform adept at managing a spectrum of users, including humans, machines, and AI agents. The platform facilitates adept governance across all identity types while integrating seamlessly into existing technology setups without necessitating a complete overhaul.

Market Pressure and Solutions

The timing of these accolades arrives against a backdrop of increasing pressure within the market. A recent survey from Dark Reading reveals that 40% of organizations currently utilize four or more separate, disconnected identity products or platforms, with Keeper's own research highlighting that a staggering 96% of cybersecurity decision-makers view these disconnected tools as breeding grounds for exploitable security gaps. Organizations managing their identity security via multiple disconnected tools are seeking unified solutions, leading independent analyst research to point them towards comprehensive platforms like Keeper.
