Keeper Security unveils its 2026 MSP PAM partner push
Keeper Security has launched a 2026 managed service provider partner programme built around its KeeperPAM platform, targeting broader adoption of privileged access management through channel partners.
The company said the updated programme focuses on incentives, training and marketing support for MSPs. Keeper positioned the package as an overhaul of its existing channel approach, with a new tier structure and additional enablement for partners selling privileged access management services.
Privileged access management (PAM) governs access to high-privileged accounts and credentials. Security teams use it to reduce the risk of credential abuse and privileged access misuse.
Programme structure
Keeper said the 2026 MSP Partner Program uses four levels: Authorised, Silver, Gold and Platinum. The company said discounts depend on annualised global revenue and certification achievements.
Keeper also said partners in the programme can access dedicated MSP account management and regional channel marketing managers. The company said it will also offer Market Development Funds for demand generation and go-to-market activities.
"Managed service providers are on the front lines of defending businesses against credential abuse and privilege misuse, yet many legacy PAM solutions are too complex and costly to deploy at scale," said Darren Guccione, Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder, Keeper Security. "Our 2026 MSP Partner Program is built to change that. We're giving partners a modern, cloud-native PAM platform, stronger economics and deeper enablement so they can grow profitably while delivering zero-trust security their customers need."
Training focus
Keeper said training and certification sit at the centre of the programme. The company said it will deliver these through Keeper Academy. It listed certifications spanning pre-sales, sales, and implementation work.
Keeper said the certifications include Keeper MSP Pro, Sales Professional, Demo Expert and KeeperPAM Implementation. The company framed this as a way for partners to standardise delivery and develop repeatable sales and deployment processes.
"MSPs are looking for solutions that are easy to sell, easy to deploy and meaningfully profitable," said Eric Kalseth, Senior Director of Global MSP Sales, Keeper Security. "This program was designed around how MSPs operate in the real world, with tiered incentives, dedicated support, certifications and go-to-market resources that help partners move faster, shorten sales cycles and expand recurring revenue."
KeeperPAM core
Keeper placed KeeperPAM at the core of the updated partner programme. The company described KeeperPAM as a cloud-native, zero-trust PAM platform. Keeper said it uses zero-knowledge encryption.
The company said KeeperPAM secures privileged accounts, credentials, secrets and remote access. It said the platform covers on-premises, cloud and hybrid environments. Keeper also said it does not require multiple tools, VPNs or complex infrastructure.
Keeper also described its broader product set, including password and passkey management, infrastructure secrets, remote connections, and endpoint security controls. The company said it uses role-based enforcement policies, least privilege and just-in-time access.
Channel push
Keeper framed the programme as part of ongoing investment in channel sales. The company said the package combines partner economics, expanded enablement materials and certifications, increased marketing support, and a PAM offering for cloud and hybrid IT environments.
The updated partner approach lands as MSPs face pressure from customers to manage access controls across mixed estates. Many organisations run legacy systems alongside public cloud services and third-party software-as-a-service tools. That environment increases the number of privileged identities and machine secrets in day-to-day operations.
Keeper said the programme is available immediately through existing account management channels for partners that want to join. The company said MSPs can enter the programme through the tier structure and progress based on revenue and certification outcomes.
Keeper said it expects MSP partners to use KeeperPAM as a basis for privileged access management services delivered across on-premises, cloud and hybrid environments.
