Delinea, the identity security platform that continuously controls what AI agents, humans, and machines can do and for how long, has been named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Privileged Access Management for the eighth consecutive time.
Delinea has been named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Privileged Access Management for the eighth consecutive time.
Delinea introduced just-in-time runtime authorization for AI agents, extending granular, time-bound access decisions to autonomous agents.
These capabilities are used to secure millions of AI agent sessions weekly across customer environments.
Delinea commits to a 99.995% monthly availability SLA on the Delinea Platform across its global regions.
Delinea delivers enhanced cloud-native JIT capabilities and protocol-level ephemeral credential injection for servers, databases and Kubernetes.
Delinea was formed in April 2021 through the merger of Thycotic and Centrify.
"As AI powered attacks increase and companies push to adopt AI to drive productivity, identity security has become the most powerful control," said Art Gilliland, CEO of Delinea. "We believe being recognized by Gartner for the eighth consecutive time underscores our commitment to innovation and to delivering technology our customers can rely on to address the new challenges that AI has elevated."
Delinea continues to push privileged access management toward real-time, context-aware control while enabling the business. Delinea believes this work reflects a broader effort to make authorization dynamic rather than static, granting the right access at the moment it is needed and revoking it when it is not.
Delinea believes that reliability is foundational to how enterprises adopt AI safely and at scale. The company now delivers enhanced cloud-native JIT capabilities and protocol-level ephemeral credential injection for servers, databases, and Kubernetes, eliminating standing access to critical infrastructure and reducing the attack surface that privileged credentials traditionally create.
About Delinea
Delinea is the identity security platform that governs what humans, machines, and AI agents do once they have access. It enforces just-in-time authorization at the moment of action, not just when access is first granted, reducing reliance on standing privilege across on-premises, multi-cloud, and ephemeral infrastructure. Built on deep privileged access management expertise, the Delinea Platform continuously discovers identities, analyzes risk, and enforces least privilege, so every access decision is defensible. This gives organizations the visibility and control to adopt AI with confidence.
