If you received an unexpected password reset email from Instagram at the beginning of January 2026, you’re not alone. In early January, many Instagram users reported
Keeper Security has once again been recognized by the German technology publication connect professional. In its latest independent test, Keeper Endpoint Privilege Manager (EPM) received a “good” (GUT) rating, highlighting the platform’s strong capabilities for securing and managing endpoint privileges.
Having earned Test Winner recognition for its Password Manager and a ‘sehr gut’ rating for KeeperPAM, Keeper’s Endpoint Privilege Manager now adds a ‘gut’ rating from connect professional — a third independent validation of Keeper’s innovation across enterprise security.
What connect professional highlighted
In its review, connect professional takes a detailed look at how Keeper EPM approaches endpoint privilege management, with a focus on control, structure and applicability in real-world IT environments.
The evaluation points to several notable aspects:
-
Policy-based privilege management
The platform enables granular control over user privileges, allowing organizations to define precisely when and how elevated rights are granted. -
Centralized administration model
Privilege policies and endpoint controls are managed through a unified interface, providing oversight across users and devices. -
Alignment with zero-trust principles
Access is governed by defined rules and conditions, supporting a security model in which privileges are not permanently assigned but are controlled dynamically. -
Designed for structured IT environments
The solution offers a level of configurability and control that supports organizations with more complex requirements around access governance and compliance.
Overall, the review presents Keeper EPM as a well-structured solution for managing endpoint privileges, particularly in environments where consistent policy enforcement and visibility are essential.
Secure endpoint privileges with Keeper
Managing endpoint privileges is one of the most effective ways to reduce an organization’s attack surface. Overprivileged users, standing admin rights and uncontrolled software installations remain common entry points for cyber attacks.
Keeper EPM addresses these challenges by enabling organizations to:
- Enforce least privilege across all Windows, Linux and macOS endpoints
- Grant temporary, policy-based privilege elevation
- Reduce standing privileges and insider risk
- Maintain full visibility into user activity and access
As part of Keeper’s unified, cloud-native security platform, Keeper EPM extends zero-trust and zero-knowledge principles to the endpoint layer, complementing solutions like KeeperPAM to secure both infrastructure and user activity.
