SecurEnds vs. Zilla / Idira

Don’t let your PAM vendor define your governance roadmap.

Zilla is now part of Idira—a broader identity-security platform built around privilege, IGA, machine identities, and AI agents. If your problem is access governance, solve that problem directly. SecurEnds lets you keep CyberArk PAM, Entra, Okta, and the security tools you already use while building an independent governance program around reviews, remediation, access control, identity security, and GRC.

Already using CyberArk? Keep it for privileged access. Your PAM decision does not have to become your IGA, risk, compliance, and governance decision.

Choose SecurEnds for governance because it fits the control—not because another security product happens to come from the same vendor.
Why consider SecurEnds instead?

Because your access-review problem should not require a bigger platform commitment.

If the business need is to get applications into scope, improve certification, prove remediation, and satisfy audit, evaluate the product against those outcomes first.

01

Keep your existing stack

Use SecurEnds alongside CyberArk, Entra, Okta, and other identity investments rather than replacing them to improve governance.

02

Govern the apps you actually have

More than 1,000 applications are already being ingested in SecurEnds production environments using multiple integration approaches.

03

Start with the control

Begin with User Access Reviews, remediation, and evidence. Add requests, lifecycle, access models, and identity security when they are needed.

04

Expand with the same governance team

Extend into IT Risk, Vendor Risk, Policy & Controls, assessments, findings, remediation, and evidence.

What changed with Zilla?

Zilla is no longer just an IGA decision.

CyberArk acquired Zilla and its IGA technology is now positioned inside Idira, Palo Alto Networks’ broader identity-security platform. Idira explicitly brings identity governance together with privileged access and machine and agentic identity security. That may be a broader architectural commitment than your access-governance project requires.

The SecurEnds approach

Keep governance independent from platform consolidation.

  • Keep CyberArk if it is already your PAM standard.
  • Keep Entra or Okta for authentication and identity services.
  • Add SecurEnds specifically for governance, reviews, remediation, and evidence.
  • Expand into Access Request, lifecycle, SoD, Access Templates, IdentityWatch, NHI, and AI identities as needed.
  • Extend into GRC without changing buying centers or forcing every new requirement into an identity-security architecture.
The question to ask

Why should PAM determine IGA?

If CyberArk is doing a good job protecting privileged accounts, keep it. Then independently evaluate which product best solves:

  • application coverage
  • access certifications
  • reviewer experience
  • revocation and reconciliation
  • audit evidence
  • risk and compliance expansion
1,000+ applications

Connector count should not decide this comparison.

Zilla has public 1,000+ integration claims. SecurEnds has 1,000+ applications being ingested in production. The better question is whether your most difficult applications can be brought into the governance process your team will operate every quarter.

Core and business-critical systemsCan the product ingest the applications auditors actually ask about?
Legacy and homegrown systemsCan database, file, SFTP, API, directory, and other supported methods bring them into scope?
Reviewer experienceCan the business reviewer understand the access well enough to make a meaningful decision?
RemediationCan the team follow “revoke” all the way through fulfillment and reconciliation?
EvidenceCan you show who reviewed the access, what they decided, and what happened afterward?
Operating effortHow much work will onboarding, campaigns, reviewer support, remediation, and audit preparation create?
Start with UAR. Grow into governance.

The next problem does not have to be another identity-security product.

The people responsible for access reviews are often also responsible for the broader governance work surrounding systems, vendors, policies, controls, findings, and evidence. SecurEnds can grow with that responsibility.

01

User Access Reviews

Who has access? Who reviewed it? What should change?

02

Remediation

Was the revoked access actually removed?

03

Access Governance

Requests, lifecycle, templates, SoD, and fulfillment.

04

Identity Security

Usage, NHI, service accounts, AI identities, and identity risk.

05

Risk & Compliance

IT Risk, Vendor Risk, Policies, Controls, findings, and evidence.

The SecurEnds alternative

Keep CyberArk for PAM. Use SecurEnds to govern access across the rest of the business.

You do not need to undo an existing CyberArk investment. You also do not need to make every future governance capability part of the same ecosystem. SecurEnds gives you a focused governance layer that can coexist with your identity stack and expand around the work your governance team actually owns.

No rip-and-replace

Add governance without replacing the IdP, PAM, or security tools already deployed.

No connector-count distraction

Judge the products against your actual applications and review process.

No forced expansion path

Expand from UAR into the controls that create value for your organization—including GRC.

Put us to the test

Bring the 10 applications you expect us to struggle with.

A competitive evaluation should prove what happens in your environment—not which vendor has the best generic demo.

1

Ingest them

Use your connected, legacy, DB, file, API, directory, SaaS, and homegrown sources.

2

Run the review

Compare correlation, context, campaigns, reminders, delegation, exceptions, and reviewer effort.

3

Revoke access

Follow the decision through fulfillment, ticketing, supported automation, reconciliation, and closure.

4

Show the evidence

See which approach leaves your governance and audit team with the cleaner operating model.

Make an independent IGA decision

See SecurEnds with your applications before you expand deeper into someone else’s ecosystem.

Bring your hardest systems and one real access-review campaign. We’ll show the full process from ingestion to review, revocation, reconciliation, and evidence.

SecurEnds vs. Zilla / Idira

Compare governance—not ecosystems.

Use the applications, reviewers, remediation process, and audit requirements your team already manages. Then decide which approach actually fits the problem.
