Pathlock announced an alliance with KPMG LLP to support AI-native identity and access governance for large enterprises running complex core systems.
Pathlock said Tuesday that it has formed an alliance with KPMG LLP to offer AI-native identity and access governance for large enterprises modernizing core systems, according to a release published Tuesday.

Pathlock said its multi-tenant software-as-a-service platform combines identity governance, access risk analysis, elevated access management, application controls and continuous monitoring. The company said the system pairs fine-grained access governance with real-time transaction-level analytics to help enforce controls, detect risky behavior and support compliance and auditability.

The release also said the alliance is aimed at enterprises running billions of dollars of transactions through core systems.
Mick McGarry, principal, cybersecurity services at KPMG LLP, said KPMG's priority is helping clients use AI while maintaining a resilient cybersecurity posture. He said combining identity governance with behavioral insights and cybersecurity frameworks is intended to help manage access and transaction risk.
Pathlock said partnerships are central to its strategy and said KPMG brings knowledge in compliance, risk and transformation. The company described itself as a leader in ERP security and controls automation and said it is trusted by Global 2000 organizations running SAP, Oracle and Workday environments.
The announcement did not include financial terms, a deal value or a timetable for the alliance's rollout. It also did not say how many clients the companies expect to pursue together.
