Keeper Security

Overview

Keeper Security started as a password manager and grew into KeeperPAM, a cloud-native platform that combines vaulting, secrets management, connection management, and session recording. Its angle is approachability: privileged access that an SMB or mid-market team can adopt without standing up a heavyweight enterprise PAM program. Keeper is FedRAMP-authorized, which broadens its public-sector appeal.

What it is good at

A smooth on-ramp from password management to privileged access. Teams already using Keeper for credential storage can extend into rotation, secrets, and brokered remote connections with session recording, all from one zero-knowledge architecture. Deployment is light, pricing is transparent, and the FedRAMP authorization and zero-knowledge encryption are reassuring for security-conscious buyers. It also serves double duty as an enterprise password manager.

Where it falls short

At the top of the market, the deepest privileged use cases (extensive session isolation, broad legacy target coverage, complex workflow) still favor CyberArk, BeyondTrust, and Delinea. KeeperPAM is newer than those incumbents, so very large or highly regulated privileged estates should validate coverage carefully. Lifecycle and governance are lighter than dedicated suites.

Pricing

Transparent, per-user subscription across password management and KeeperPAM tiers, generally accessible for SMB and mid-market.

Best for, and who should look elsewhere

Choose Keeper when you want password management and approachable privileged access from one zero-knowledge platform, especially in SMB, mid-market, or FedRAMP contexts. Choose CyberArk, BeyondTrust, or Delinea for the largest, most complex privileged estates.

Bottom line

A pragmatic, well-priced path from password management into privileged access for teams growing into PAM rather than starting at enterprise scale.
