Enterprise security and identity teams that need unified PAM, identity governance, endpoint privilege control, and agentic AI identity security across hybrid cloud environments
About Idira
Idira is Palo Alto Networks’ next-generation identity security platform built for the AI enterprise, designed to secure every human, machine, and agentic identity through one unified control plane. It modernizes privileged access management by extending privilege controls beyond administrators to every identity that can access sensitive systems, data, applications, cloud services, workloads, endpoints, secrets, certificates, SSH keys, and AI agents. It discovers identity risk, applies privilege dynamically, and governs the full lifecycle from first access to final session. Idira replaces static, always-on access with dynamic privilege, just-in-time access, zero standing privilege, continuous verification, policy-driven controls, and real-time enforcement based on identity, device, and context. For human identities, it unifies privileged access, workforce access, endpoint privilege management, and identity governance, helping organizations reduce privilege sprawl.
