Xage XPAM vs. Delinea

Delinea’s fragmented PAM portfolio—combined with added licensing costs for on-premises deployment—increases complexity and total cost of ownership, making enterprise-wide protection harder to achieve. Xage XPAM provides an agentless, distributed Zero Trust architecture that protects data center, cloud, edge, and legacy environments—even during WAN or cloud outages.

Extend privileged access protection across the enterprise faster—without the cost and complexity of a fragmented PAM stack.

PAM for IT

Xage XPAM protects privileged access to enterprise systems, applications, cloud resources, and administrative accounts through least-privilege controls, credential security, and session governance.

XPAM simplifies deployment and accelerates time-to-value with an agentless, Zero Trust architecture that delivers secure privileged access without network changes, VPNs, or complex integrations.

PAM for AI Agents

Xage XPAM governs the permissions, credentials, and actions of autonomous AI agents interacting with enterprise systems, data, and workflows through policy-based access controls and credential protection.

Xage applies the same Zero Trust policies used for human and machine identities to AI agents, delivering secure privileged access with centralized governance, full auditability, and consistent policy enforcement.
