The whitepaper by KuppingerCole explores the growing challenge of managing machine identities—which now outnumber human users—as enterprises adopt cloud, microservices, CI/CD pipelines, and zero-trust architectures. It highlights how credential sprawl, hardcoded secrets, and inadequate rotation create systemic security risks. The document outlines compliance pressures across global and regional standards, emphasizing auditability, lifecycle governance, and encryption requirements.
ARCON Secrets Management is presented as a cost-effective, enterprise-grade solution integrated with ARCON’s broader PAM platform. It provides centralized vaulting, automated rotation, Kubernetes sidecar authentication, and integrations across DevOps, cloud, RPA, and security tools. With AES-256 encryption and zero-trust analytics, ARCON targets regulated industries in APAC and the Middle East. The paper concludes with guidance for evaluating solutions—prioritizing technical fit, integration depth, compliance evidence, vendor stability, and real-world deployment complexity.
