Xalient, Silverfort Align to Secure OT, NHI

Xalient, which focuses on identity-driven security and networking convergence, is partnering with identity security company Silverfort. Together, Xalient and Silverfort plan to bolster their identity security offerings by strengthening MFA, securing human and non-human identities and introducing adaptive authentication.

Xalient’s portfolio of security solutions includes privileged access management (PAM) and identity governance and administration (IGA).

Silverfort’s platform, meanwhile, unifies visibility, real-time enforcement and response across multiple identities and environments. Its runtime access protection (RAP) technology natively integrates with IAM infrastructure, extending protection to resources that were previously unprotected while securing legacy systems, service accounts, command-line tools and IT/OT infrastructure.

“As the identity landscape continues to evolve, Xalient is enhancing its capabilities in critical areas, including OT, non-human identities and identity threat detection and response (ITDR),” said Xalient field CTO, EMEA, Jos Akkermans. “These are the foundational pillars of modern cybersecurity, and our capabilities align closely with those of Silverfort. Together with our innovative solutions, we’re committed to helping organisations secure every layer of their physical and digital environment.’’

“We are very excited about our new partnership with Xalient,” said Leslie Bois, VP of global channels, Silverfort. “Their proven expertise in identity and access management (IAM), alongside an impressive track record and client base, makes it a natural fit with our strategy and technology. What truly sets this collaboration apart is the strong alignment between our technical capabilities, our mutual technology partners and, most importantly, our cultures. This partnership reflects a true extension of our team, together we can deliver the best experience for our mutual customers with identity done the right way. The partnership with Xalient is built to unlock new opportunities, deliver exceptional value to clients, and drive meaningful growth across the region.”
