In Gartner’s recent Hype Cycle for Identity and Access Management Technologies, Keyfactor was named a Sample vendor in both Machine Identity Management and Internet of things Authentication.
According to Gartner, "Machine Identity Management encompasses a number of technologies, that today remain mostly siloed (i.e., X.509 Certificate management, SSH key management, as well as secrets and other crypto-key management)."
The report explains that "as environments become more digital and cloud-enabled, security leaders will need to ensure that they can manage the increase in volume and velocity of machine identities that will be required to support their digital business needs."
