Identity security vendors - compare the differences
Akeyless secures the secret. Delinea stays for the session that follows, authorizing every action before it runs.
Akeyless will tell you it secures secrets, credentials, certificates and AI agents in one platform, but the control that reaches a session with your infrastructure is actually open.
Identity security vendors – compare the differences
Delinea delivers one platform built for the way modern enterprises actually run
Easier to implement - Easier to use – Easier to manage
The Delinea Platform serves both traditional PAM and modern workload-access buyers through one identity,
one policy, and one audit. CyberArk (now Idira) ties your choice of vault to Palo Alto Networks' broader SOC and security platform commitment.
Delinea reduces risk and simplifies operations
Delinea extends access control into continuous, runtime authorization across every AI, human and machine identity.

Trusted by real organizations
Leading industry analysts consistently recognize Delinea, but the most meaningful endorsements come from our customers.
“You don't even know [Delinea] StrongDM is there once it's installed. It just works. It's that simple.”
Jim Mortko, VP of Engineering, Hearst
“We used [Delinea] StrongDM to instantly deliver results to our auditors, which really simplified the SOC 2 process.”
Jon Hyman, Co-Founder & CTO, Braze
“The effort to achieve SOC 2 without [Delinea] StrongDM would have been monumental from a cost & labor perspective.”
Michael DaSilva, Infrastructure Security Manager, Yext
Why the differences between Delinea and CyberArk matter

Why the differences between Delinea and Akeyless matter
Akeyless's Zero-Knowledge architecture makes sure nobody, including Akeyless, can reconstruct a secret. That doesn't cover what happens after a user, agent or machine actually gets in.
- Akeyless issues short-lived credentials, brokers the session, then watches it. Anomalies surface after the fact through SIEM and SOAR alerts.
- Delinea stays in the path for the life of the session, evaluating every command, query or tool call against policy before it runs.
Akeyless's Agentic Runtime Authority blocks a specific AI agent action before it executes. It's published material on human privileged access that describes something narrower.
- Akeyless's own material describes real-time anomaly detection and alerting for human sessions, not a documented claim of blocking a specific action mid-session.
- Delinea’s runtime authorization blocks destructive SQL statements and redacts sensitive columns while a person’s session is still live on Postgres and Microsoft SQL Server.
Akeyless's model still hands a credential to the requester, just one that expires faster than a static secret would.
- Akeyless still hands the requester a working credential. It expires quickly, but it exists and, once issued, lives outside Akeyless's view.
- Delinea hands over nothing. Every session runs through the Delinea proxy, and every command ties back to the individual user no matter what authenticates in the background.
Thousands of customers. One easy choice.
Industry leaders and innovative disrupters agree: our PAM solutions are the easiest to try, buy, implement and own.
With Delinea, privileged access is more accessible.
Access control that doesn't stop at the credential handoff
Akeyless's Distributed Fragments Cryptography (DFC) splits secret material into fragments and never reassembles them anywhere. Only Akeyless can read them because it issues short-lived credentials per task that expire on their own. Delinea treats that handoff as the point where its own job starts.
- Delinea runtime authorization stays in the path for the life of the session across servers, databases, Kubernetes clusters and AI agent tool calls, checking every command, query and tool call against policy before it runs rather than logging it after.
- Delinea runtime authorization blocks and redacts specific actions, stopping a destructive SQL statement or redacting a sensitive column mid-session on Postgres and Microsoft SQL Server today, with more coverage on the roadmap.
- No added friction for users: Engineers and agents keep using the tools and workflows they already use.
- Gateways and relays run redundantly, with automatic failover, so the control plane doesn't go down because one node did.
Identity security built for AI
Delinea centralizes authorization across every AI agent, human and machine identity, while Akeyless removes standing privilege by never letting a secret exist in a form that it or anyone else could reconstruct. Delinea's runtime authorization stays present for the life of the session, authorizes every action against policy before it runs, and blocks or redacts specific actions on Postgres and Microsoft SQL Server. It works with whatever vault you already run, or none at all.
- The Delinea Gateway authorizes each tool call an AI agent makes before it executes. Live today for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex CLI, GitHub Copilot in VS Code and Kiro.
- Delinea authorizes the action itself, never the credential behind it.
- Service accounts and pipelines get the same policy and audit treatment as human users.
