Chicago, November 5, 2026 / PRNewswire / -- The zero-trust and zero-knowledge identity security platform Keeper Security today announces the launch of Self - Managed Keeper. This new self-managed deployment option brings the core privileged access management (PAM) capabilities of Keeper to environments where external cloud connections are limited, unavailable, or prohibited. Self - Managed Keeper is designed for government agencies, critical infrastructure operators, and enterprises under strict regulation, enabling organizations to fully manage credentials, keys, and privileged sessions within their own infrastructure, including local environments, private clouds, isolated networks, and operational technology (OT) environments.
Organizations in fields such as government, defense, energy, utilities, financial services, and industrial operations typically maintain restricted or disconnected networks to meet security, operational, and regulatory requirements. Self - Managed Keeper adapt to these network restrictions by allowing enterprise security teams to control the operational locations of their infrastructure, the methods of access, and the storage locations of sensitive data, without any reliance on the cloud. Keeper indicates that this new deployment option extends its service scope to environments where customers need to manage their infrastructure autonomously, complementing its existing cloud-native products.
Keeper Security, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder, stated: "For organizations operating in environments with no internet access or with severely limited connectivity, relying on external cloud connections can pose unacceptable operational risks. Self - Managed Keeper brings enterprise-level privileged access management to these environments, while allowing organizations to maintain full control over their security infrastructure."
For critical infrastructure operators, maintaining access to privileged credentials during connection interruptions can be crucial for system recovery and continued operations. Self - Managed Keeper provides credential management, key management, and privileged session management through KeeperPAM Gateway. The solution also includes KeeperDB, Keeper management consoles, and Keeper API. Keeper indicates that its autonomous management platform runs in containers on Docker infrastructure controlled by the customer, allowing organizations to manage privileged access within their own environment, including completely isolated networks.
Self - The main functions and advantages of Managed Keeper include:
- Operational continuity:Maintain access to privileged credentials and sessions without relying on external clouds or internet connections, supporting critical operations in restricted or offline environments.
- Customer-controlled data residency:Store the encrypted credentials and keys within infrastructure controlled by the customer to support data residency and internal security requirements.
- Isolated network support:Privileged access management can be deployed in completely disconnected OT networks, national defense environments, and isolated institutional infrastructures, without the need to connect to Keeper cloud services.
- Self-managed deployment control:It can determine the running location of Keeper, the network connection method, and who can access it. It is suitable for local infrastructure, private clouds, and isolated environments.
- Zero-Knowledge Architecture:Encrypt and decrypt credentials and keys on the user's device.
Keeper Security Chief Information Security Officer Shane Barney stated: "Organizations that operate complex OT and defense networks face a unique challenge: they must maintain strict security and operational requirements while also keeping up with the development of modern cybersecurity capabilities. Self - Managed Keeper bridges this gap by bringing advanced privileged access management to highly restricted environments where traditional cloud deployments are not applicable. Security teams can modernize their methods of protecting critical systems without sacrificing the infrastructure requirements necessary to ensure the security of these environments."
