New EMA Research Highlights KeeperPAM’s Strength in Modern Privileged Access Management 

Keeper Security, the leading zero-trust and zero-knowledge Privileged Access Management (PAM) platform protecting passwords and passkeys, privileged accounts, secrets and remote connections, has announced the release of a new global survey report from Enterprise Management Associates (EMA), ”Beyond the Vault: Elevating Privileged Access Management in the Modern Enterprise.” The independent survey and report evaluated eight major PAM platforms and identified KeeperPAM as a leader in deployment ease, security architecture, and customer satisfaction.

With 69% of organisations adopting privileged access management primarily to prevent credential theft and mitigate cyber threats, solutions based on zero-trust and zero-knowledge principles are increasingly critical to enforce continuous identity verification and secure sensitive data. The EMA survey, based on responses from cybersecurity professionals actively using eight leading PAM platforms, found that KeeperPAM® customers experience faster deployments, stronger adherence to zero-trust principles and higher overall satisfaction compared to users of other PAM solutions.

Key findings include:

• 75% of KeeperPAM users are “very satisfied” with their solution, significantly higher than the 54% satisfaction rate for other vendors.
• 73% of users with competing PAM solutions report persistent issues, and 22% say their vendor lacks critical features.
• 60% of KeeperPAM users describe deployment as “very easy,” compared to just 22% of the users of other PAM solutions.
• Only 15% of KeeperPAM customers require dedicated staff to manage deployment and integration, versus nearly 40% of users of other providers.
• *None of Keeper’s customers reported plans to switch platforms, while 5% of other vendors’ users surveyed said they are actively seeking alternatives.

KeeperPam Integrates Advanced Capabilities

The report also highlights that a privileged access management solution like KeeperPAM integrates advanced capabilities such as just-in-time provisioning, remote browser isolation, endpoint privilege management, and privileged session monitoring. These features enable organisations to eliminate shared credentials, enforce least-privilege access and automate the entire privilege lifecycle from onboarding to deprovisioning.

“Modern, zero-trust privileged access management has moved into a new era with the launch and proliferation of KeeperPAM,” said Darren Guccione, CEO and Co-Founder of Keeper Security. “KeeperPAM was designed to provide visibility, security, compliance and control across the entire organisation to radically mitigate insider and external threat risk. This report validates the high value KeeperPAM provides to organisations for protecting infrastructure and endpoints from unauthorised access.”

Legacy on-premises PAM solutions often face challenges in connection with complex integrations and often require significant staffing resources. KeeperPAM’s cloud-native design streamlines deployment and simplifies integration with IdP applications, MFA solutions, and SIEM solutions. This reduces operational overhead and allows security teams to shift their focus from reactive strategies to proactive risk mitigation.

Organisations using competing solutions report significantly more challenges, from missing features to integration difficulties, with 73% citing at least one major issue, compared to just 35% of Keeper customers.

EMA conducted an independent survey with cybersecurity professionals using BeyondTrust, CyberArk, Delinea, Devolutions, Keeper Security, ManageEngine, One Identity, and StrongDM in June 2025. All data in the white paper is based on the survey responses and open-ended answers regarding privileged access management priorities and challenges in the enterprise.
