BeyondTrust - Secure Remote Access and Privileged Access Management

Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for PAM

Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for PAM Names BeyondTrust a Leader

In the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Privileged Access Management report, Gartner analysts dissect the evolving privileged access threat landscape, vet key PAM capabilities, and assess BeyondTrust and other PAM vendors.

We believe we are named a Leader in this year’s report for our Completeness of Vision and for our positioning as the highest of all vendors in Ability to Execute, which evaluates vendors on offering (product), innovation, market understanding, and more.

In our view, BeyondTrust has continued to validate its PAM and Identity Security position as a Leader throughout 2025 by launching:

  • BeyondTrust Pathfinder Platform: A unified platform providing a one-console approach to manage comprehensive PAM, and from which to centralize a holistic identity security strategy.

  • True Privilege™ Graph: A groundbreaking AI-powered capability for visualizing, and providing critical context around mitigating, hidden or indirect pathways threat actors can access to escalate privilege.

  • Agentic AI Security: We were first to market with a generally available solution for extending PAM best practices—including discovery, least privilege access, and secrets management—to agentic AI identities. With the rapid proliferation of these AI agent identities—often occurring as shadow IT in enterprises—our solution set addresses an urgent, growing need.

“We are proud to once again be recognized by Gartner as a Leader in their Magic Quadrant for PAM, and to continue to provide our customers with the industry’s most complete identity security platform for the AI era and beyond.”

—Janine Seebeck, CEO of BeyondTrust
