2026 GigaOm Radar: CIEM

See why Palo Alto Networks is a Leader and Outperformer.

Cloud identity is the new perimeter. Secure it with the industry leader.

AI-infused applications are driving an explosion of nonhuman identities and are rapidly expanding the cloud attack surface. Managing this surge in “cloud identity debt" requires specialized CIEM capabilities to automate the principle of least privilege and secure complex permissions at scale.

Palo Alto Networks has been named a Leader and an Outperformer in the 2026 GigaOm Radar for Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM). The report recognizes Cortex® Cloud™ for delivering a unified platform that provides continuous visibility, governance and protection across multicloud environments.

Read the report to learn how to:

  • Detect identity threats: Identify compromised credentials, privilege escalation and abnormal access patterns using AI-driven behavioral analysis.

  • Control nonhuman identities: Gain visibility into service accounts, automation roles, APIs and AI workloads that traditional tools often miss.

  • Govern permissions at scale: Enforce least-privileged access and eliminate identity sprawl with continuous lifecycle management and automated controls.

"Palo Alto Networks is classified as an Outperformer due to the February 2025 architectural consolidation of 16 tools into a unified platform, a monthly release cadence that delivers incremental capabilities, and an aggressive roadmap." – GigaOm Radar
