| 2024 IN REVIEW | | Well, here we go again! | | Yet another year wrapped up means yet another year in review for you. Starting this year, the ManageEngine PAM Newsletter will be published under the name PAMphlet. | | 2024 was a year filled with interesting product updates, cherished analyst recognitions, a myriad of events around the globe, and much more. | | Here's a look at everything that went down with ManageEngine PAM in 2024 and a glimpse at curious new stuff that we have planned for the coming year. |

|
| Hurrahs and huzzahs | | In 2024, we secured the Challenger position in two of the most celebrated analyst recognitions: the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ and the KuppingerCole Leadership Compass for Privileged Access Management. | | The Gartner Magic Quadrant annually examines vendors on the basis of their ability to execute and their completeness of vision. On that note, this time around, we have moved ever so close to the Leaders quadrant due to the progress we've made with the completeness of our vision. | | The KuppingerCole Leadership Compass presents an objective analysis of the market, examining the strengths, challenges, and capabilities of various PAM vendors. It offers detailed insights into the current state of the PAM landscape, key drivers, and emerging trends. | | Get your complimentary copies now. |

| 2024 featured news | | We have a feast of new features ready for you to try. Here's a detailed look at some of them. | | |  | | Cloud infrastructure entitlement management | | PAM360 now boasts a fully fledged cloud infrastructure entitlement management (CIEM) module out of the box. The CIEM module proactively identifies risks from excessive permissions, policy violations, and misconfigurations, providing a comprehensive view of vulnerable permissions across AWS cloud environments. With built-in detection and mitigation workflows, it supports the achievement of zero standing privileges, effectively reducing security vulnerabilities to protect cloud infrastructure from end to end. | | Get a hands-on trial | |
| | |  | | PAM360's SDK and SCIM connectors | | The SDK opens up new pathways for developers and administrators, offering seamless integrations of PAM360 features with DevOps solutions, CI/CD platforms, and any other microservices and software across an organization. By leveraging the SDK, developers can efficiently embed PAM capabilities in their applications, ensuring robust security and seamless functionality within the PAM360 environment. | | Early last year, PAM360 started supporting SCIM 2.0 to exchange user data between SCIM-supported identity providers and the PAM360 application. Having identity providers' SCIM provisioning agents installed within the PAM360 server network helps administrators easily synchronize user and user group details between their existing identity management systems and the PAM360 application using the provided SCIM API. | | Explore PAM360's universal connectors | |
|
| |
| | | | Endpoint privilege management | | PAM360 offers end-to-end endpoint privilege management for Windows environments through its fine-grain application controls powered by ManageEngine's enterprise application control tool, Application Control Plus. |
|
|
| | You can now narrow the attack surface by allowlisting and blocklisting applications on privileged endpoints, extend application control mechanisms to child processes, and align with the principle of least privilege by removing unnecessary local admin accounts on endpoints, thus extending PAM to endpoints across your enterprise. | | Learn more | |

| A sneak peek at the product roadmap | | The ManageEngine PAM team is committed to creating solutions that make your day-to-day a whole lot easier, keep your systems safer, and help you crush those compliance headaches, and we believe our roadmap ahead reflects that philosophy. | | Think of this as your backstage pass to see all the exciting ways we’re leveling up to make PAM smarter, smoother, and more secure for you. | | Privileged task automation | | Privileged task automation will help IT administrators automate repetitive privileged tasks across multiple endpoints and applications, improving operational efficiency. | | An application gateway server | | Administrators will have an option to set up an application gateway server, which they can use to discover Linux resources from environments that are not directly connected to PAM360. | | Privileged access policies | | With an all-new way to manage privileged access within PAM360, IT administrators will be able to set up customizable privileged access policies based on a set of predefined criteria. | | View the complete roadmap |
