Identity Management and Information Security News for the Week of March 6th
Checkr Announces a New Identity Verification Service
Checkr, an employee background screening service provider, has introduced a new identity verification service that integrates government ID checks, biometrics, and knowledge-based authentication to streamline remote employee onboarding and compliance. The new offering addresses the rising demand for secure, scalable identity proofing amid hybrid work and regulatory pressures, including those from the FTC and the EU. Unlike general-purpose identity solutions, Checkr’s service is embedded directly into the hiring workflow and can run alongside background checks or at key moments in the candidate journey.
DataDome Launches an Enhanced Partner Program
DataDome, a bot and agent trust management provider, has launched an enhanced partner program with tiered reseller levels—Authorized, Growth, and Strategic. The company also announced a referral track that links resellers to its bot management tech and cloud alliances via a new portal for deal registration and resources. Cynthia Dunphy, Director of Channel Sales at DataDome, says, “We built this program around quality and connection, not just scale, to be more intentional and more connected, so resellers can plug into a broader ecosystem and collaborate around what customers actually need.”
Delinea Completes Its Acquisition of StrongDM
Delinea, a company focused on securing human and machine identities through centralized authorization, has completed its acquisition of StrongDM, an access management company purpose-built for modern engineering, DevOps, and AI-driven environments. Now that the acquisition is complete, Delinea can merge enterprise PAM with just-in-time runtime authorization to enforce zero standing privilege across human and machine identities in AI-driven infrastructures. This will help security teams in finance and cloud-native ops achieve real-time governance via Delinea Iris AI, balancing developer speed with compliance.
Keeper Security Debuts Two Native Jira Apps
Keeper Security, a zero-trust and zero-knowledge identity security and Privileged Access Management (PAM) platform, has released two Forge-based Jira apps. The apps include the Jira ITSM integration, which handles security events and incidents, and the Jira Workflow integration, which governs how access is requested and granted in response to those events or broader operational needs. Together, these tools can connect detection, response, and access enforcement in Jira, while ensuring Keeper remains the system of record for security controls. The Jira Workflow integration can also leverage Keeper’s Commander Service Mode to keep cryptographic operations within the customer’s environment.
Mimecast Releases the 2026 State of Human Risk Report
Mimecast, a global company committed to managing human risk, has released its 2026 State of Human Risk Report. The report’s findings show that 42 percent of organizations experienced increases in both malicious and negligent insider incidents last year, with six monthly incidents costing $13.1M each on average. Findings also showed that AI threat preparation lags despite inevitable attacks; a critical coordination gap often undermines defenses; governance failures create regulatory time bombs; and most organizations remain reliant solely on native security controls.
Predactiv Reveals an Integration with LiveRamp
Predactiv, a data and technology company, has announced an integration with LiveRamp, a data collaboration provider. The integration will enable data owners to onboard PII—names, emails, phone numbers—and convert it into privacy-safe IDs, such as HEMs and MAIDs, for use in its platform’s modeling, analytics, and activation. For example, the integration allows data owners and Predactiv clients to securely send PII to LiveRamp for identity resolution, translate it into privacy-compliant identifiers, and seamlessly onboard those identifiers into The Predactiv Data Platform.
RecordPoint Announces a Model Context Protocol Server
RecordPoint, a platform for data and AI governance, has launched a Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server to provide enterprises with a secure, standardized way to expose governed data to external AI agents and platforms. The new Server is designed to allow any AI system—copilots, agents, or custom LLM apps—to safely access governed, compliant data from the RecordPoint platform without custom integrations or elevated permissions. Joseph Pearce, RecordPoint’s Head of Product, says, “If you’re building AI agents, deploying AI platforms, or scaling AI adoption across the enterprise, the RecordPoint MCP Server gives you the governed data connectivity you need without the security and compliance headaches.”

Why Traditional Security Frameworks Can’t Handle AI | The Cyber Circuit
AI governance has become the defining challenge for security leaders in 2026, and most organizations are making up the rules as they go. For this episode of The Cyber Circuit, Michael Morgenstern sits down with Manju Mude, a cybersecurity executive with over 25 years of experience, to explore why traditional compliance frameworks are breaking down in the age of autonomous agents, how auditors are overwhelmed by machine-speed decision-making, and why waiting for regulations to catch up is a losing strategy.

From Visibility to Action: Where the Leverage Lives in Modern Security Operations
Ivan Dwyer, a Senior Product Marketing Strategist at Axonius, examines where the leverage lives in modern security operations. He says, “Organizations have built impressive security stacks, each tool serving controls for a specific domain: endpoint protection, identity management, cloud security, vulnerability scanning, and network monitoring. These investments are working. The coverage is broad, the telemetry is rich, and the compensating controls are doing their jobs. But here’s the catch: exposures don’t respect domain boundaries.”
