BeyondTrust has announced Pathfinder, a fully unified, AI-driven identity security platform.
The Pathfinder platform breaks free from fragmented, siloed solutions, delivering adaptive, intelligent and risk-aware identity security via one cohesive interface.
Pathfinder empowers customers to continuously know, prioritise and manage the most impactful identity security risks across their heterogeneous environments.
The combination of diverse, but hyper-connected, identity landscapes and the proliferation of identities, accounts and entitlements has pushed effective identity security out of reach for most organisations. While identity is the connective tissue that enables modern work, it’s also the vector attackers exploit most to breach organisations, with 90% of organisations experiencing an identity-related incident in the last year.
Privileged access management (PAM) is the keystone of a robust identity security strategy, mitigating risk by reducing privileges and securing access. Pathfinder extends PAM capabilities through the entire identity ecosystem. With AI-driven threat detection, and the ability to discover paths to privilege, the platform provides the most holistic approach to eliminating identity security blind spots, reducing attack surfaces and enforcing least privilege.
Built on the foundation of BeyondTrust’s industry-proven products, the Pathfinder platform delivers unmatched capabilities that empower organisations to reduce identity-based risks and prioritise the most impactful remediations, all in one place:
- True Privilege Graph and Continuous Risk Assessment: Visual privilege mapping provides full, context-rich visibility into every identity (human, machine, and workload), entitlement and privilege escalation path across cloud, hybrid and on-premises environments. The Pathfinder platform leverages this groundbreaking Identity Security Insights capability to go deeper than existing solutions, uncovering paths to privilege so organisations can know and address the True Privilege of all identities. Unlike static, role-based access models, the Pathfinder platform dynamically maps privilege relationships, continuously updating access pathways, and exposing hidden attack vectors, including indirect permissions, conflicts with least privilege principles, and identity-based misconfigurations. This gives organisations the ability to accurately measure the impact of security risks and proactively shut them down.
- Pragmatic AI-Powered Security: The Pathfinder platform simplifies identity security and empowers organisations of all sizes to gain the advanced capabilities previously only accessible to large companies with dedicated, specialist identity security teams. Unlike generic AI models, the Pathfinder platform delivers AI that doesn’t just surface alerts – it automates the escalation of detections and streamlines remediation of risks, delivering customers the ability to intelligently analyse privilege patterns, entitlement drift and access behaviours. This allows them to proactively reduce their identity attack surface by uncovering and remediating risks caused by excessive privilege, misconfigurations and hidden paths to privilege before they get exploited.
“Our mission is to put exceptional identity-first security within reach of any organisation, enabling resilience in the face of sophisticated attacks,” said Marc Maiffret, CTO at BeyondTrust.
“BeyondTrust’s Pathfinder platform sets a new standard for delivering identity security defence-in-depth cohesively across an organisation’s domains. Our AI-powered platform provides an integrated set of powerful tools for holistic identity visibility, just-in-time access, threat prevention and detection, so customers can neutralise identity threats before they escalate”
