Wilmington, Delaware, Jan 12, 2026 -- Securden, Inc a leading provider of Privileged Access and Identity Security solutions, today announced that it has been recognized in the Gartner research report, “How to Manage Admin Privileges on Endpoints” (ID G00827682) by Gautham Mudra (October 2025). The report identifies Securden as a PAM vendor with Privilege Elevation and Delegation Management (PEDM) capabilities for endpoint security.
The report addresses the critical challenge of balancing security and productivity when managing administrative privileges on endpoints. Gartner recommends “Use privilege elevation and delegation management (PEDM) tools to remove persistent local admin rights on endpoints and seamlessly elevate specific processes, applications and commands. This granular control improves the security posture by enabling just enough access.”
Securden’s PEDM capabilities enable organizations to eliminate standing admin rights and enforce just-in-time, application-level elevation. This granular approach applies the principle of least privilege without hindering productivity, integrating with IT service management (ITSM), security information and event management (SIEM), and other enterprise tools.
“We believe our inclusion in this Gartner analysis is a strong signal that Securden Unified PAM platform is addressing one of the most pressing security gaps—endpoint privileges,” said Bala Venkatramani, co-founder and CEO of Securden, Inc. We further believe that “The report clearly frames the operational dilemma between security and productivity. Our solution is built to resolve that exact tension, delivering the granular, just-in-time controls needed to lock down endpoints without locking out users.”
The report states that “PEDM solutions use host-based agents to grant specific privileges on endpoints. These tools can assist in removing persistent local administrator rights, enforcing command filtering, elevating privileges on endpoints, and enabling users to run designated commands and applications with elevated rights.” We believe that Securden Unified PAM aligns with this framework, offering discovery, policy creation, phased rollout, and continuous monitoring.
