Cybercriminals know that privileged accounts are the keys to your kingdom. One compromised account can lead to stolen data, disrupted operations, and massive business losses. Even top organizations struggle to secure privileged accounts. Why?
Traditional Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions often fall short, leaving:

Blind spots that limit full visibility.
Complex deployment processes.
