Netwrix

Netwrix is recognized in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Privileged Access Management for the fifth consecutive year. In his recent blog, Tyler Reese, VP of Product Management at Netwrix, shares how to read the report before you buy: as a market map rather than a verdict. His advice for building a PAM shortlist is to list where standing privilege lives in your own environment first, turn the evaluation criteria into proof-of-concept use cases, and ask every vendor what exists between sessions.

One forgotten VPN account that nobody used and nobody had disabled. Operations stood still for days. That’s where Sascha Martens, Senior Engineering Manager at Netwrix, starts his Innovation Week conversation, “AI attacks move faster than your SIEM can log them.” Replay the full video podcast: netwrix.com/en/resources/blo… #Netwrix #DataSecurity #IdentitySecurity

Netwrix has been recognized in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Privileged Access Management for the fifth consecutive year. In 2019, we bet on a different approach to PAM: remove standing privilege instead of only vaulting it. Netwrix Privilege Secure creates privileged access when a task is approved, scopes it to that task, and deletes it when the session ends. No account is left standing for an attacker to find at 2 a.m. According to Netwrix's 2026 Data and Identity Security Report, 66% of organizations still have standing, always-on access for some or most privileged roles. That's the exposure Zero Standing Privilege is built to close. Thank you to the customers who trusted this approach before the rest of the market caught up, and to the Netwrix team who built it.

Employees are already using AI at work, approved or not. So the question for IT has moved from “should we allow it” to “how do we enable it safely.” In this Innovation Week blog, Ryan Oistacher, Director of Product Marketing at Netwrix talks with Michael Wetzel, Chief Information Officer at Netwrix, about how his team brought AI to employees across the company: which tools get approved, what guardrails go around them, how people get trained, and how the team measures whether it’s working. Anyone with a browser and a credit card can sign up for an AI tool, so a blanket no doesn’t hold, and the work is securing the request quickly.

Are you tracking the valid login or the changes that follow it? At the Sydney Data Protection & Security Summit 2026, we walked through a hypothetical hybrid environment where an attacker used a valid login to make privileged group changes that went unnoticed for days. The session covered four steps: find the exposure, detect privileged changes, contain in stages, and keep a change history you can show auditors. The core point: the login looked valid. The changes that followed gave the attacker away. Which step is hardest for your team right now? Share your approach in the comments. #Netwrix #Cybersecurity #DataProtection #IdentitySecurity #Sydney

AI took the skill, personalization, and speed barriers out of cyberattacks. Dan Piazza, Manager of Product Management at Netwrix, argues that one thing still gives them away: the change they have to make to a file, a configuration, or a script on a real system. Underground tools sell pre-jailbroken access to mainstream models for as little as $50 a week, and attackers now use language models at every stage of the kill chain, from recon to persistence. Hear Dan’s case in the video podcast “You only need AI tokens to become a hacker” on Friday, October 23 at 7 a.m. ET / 4 a.m. PT / 13:00 CEST.

Your AI assistants leave credentials on disk, in well-known locations. An infostealer only has to copy one. Darryl Baker, CISSP, CEH, CCSP, ..., Senior Staff Security Researcher at Netwrix, introduces AIHound in his Innovation Week blog: a free, open-source scanner that runs on your machine and finds the API keys, OAuth tokens, and other credentials your AI assistants leave behind. Most of the tools he looked at left a clear text credential on the user’s machine, and Trend Micro’s analysis of more than 19,000 MCP servers found that 48% recommend storing secrets in .env files or plaintext JSON. AIHound scores each finding by criticality and redacts credential values by default. The download is a small binary, and a scan takes seconds.

The employee who built the agent can leave, but the agent can stay. Grady Summers, Netwrix CEO, sits down with Jeff Warren, Chief Product Officer, about a problem many teams already have without realizing it: AI agents running in their environment that nobody has inventoried. Microsoft 365 alone offers more than a dozen ways to create one. The conversation covers where agents are showing up, why visibility has to come before governance, and what Netwrix is building in 1Secure with Agentic AI Security. The beta is open now. Jeff demos it tomorrow, Tuesday, October 20 at 10 a.m. ET / 7 a.m. PT. Read the full post: netwrix.com/en/resources/blo… #Netwrix #InnovationWeek #DataSecurity #IdentitySecurity

We know how to govern human identities. Then agents showed up, and a lot of those best practices got left behind. Jeff Warren, Chief Product Officer at Netwrix and Grady Summers, CEO of Netwrix explains why AI agent adoption is moving faster than the governance around it. This is a preview of the full conversation, live Monday, October 19 at 10 a.m. ET / 7 a.m. PT, opening Netwrix Innovation Week.
