About Delinea

Delinea is a leading provider of privileged access management (PAM) solutions for the modern, hybrid enterprise. We make privileged access more accessible by eliminating complexity and defining the boundaries of access to reduce risk, ensure compliance, and simplify security. Delinea empowers thousands of customers worldwide, including over half the Fortune 100. Our customers include the world’s largest financial institutions, intelligence agencies, and critical infrastructure companies. delinea.com

As organizations continue their digital transformations, they are faced with increasingly sophisticated environments and more challenging requirements for securing an expanded threatscape. Legacy PAM solutions are not designed for today’s hybrid environments, are too complex, and cannot solve current privilege management challenges. Our mission is to provide security that’s invisible to the user, while simultaneously providing IT and security teams with the control they require. Delinea’s solutions grant access to an organization’s most critical data, devices, code, and cloud infrastructure using a centralized dashboard. Users get access when and where they need it, for as long as needed to complete the task. With Delinea, privileged access is more accessible.
