The Future of PAM post PANW & CyberArk; How Zero standing Privileges, Cloud, and Agentic AI Are Redefining the Privileged Identity Access Control Plane
This is an excellent and deeply thoughtful piece. You do a great job showing why PAM is no longer a niche identity control, but a foundational layer for governing privileges across humans, machines, and increasingly, agents.
The stat about organizations managing 40-50x more non-human identities than human ones is alarming! The governance gap for service accounts, API keys, and now autonomous agents feels like the next major breach vector if we don't get ahead of it. Thanks for sharing this report.
Impressive breakdown of ZSP as the new operational baseline. The 40-50x ratio of non-human to human identities really underscores why vault-centric PAM cant keep up anymore. The shift from credential management to runtime authorization feels inevitable once you see how ephemeral infrastracture multiplies access points without corresponding lifecycle controls. Appreciate the vendor comparison, helps clarify which models align with cloud-first vs hybrid enviroments.

Really clear explanation of why static access no longer works in cloud environments. JIT feels unavoidable now
