SailPoint Technologies is set to acquire Entro, a Tel Aviv-based cybersecurity startup specializing in non-human identity and credential security, in a transaction reported by SecurityWeek at approximately $200 million.
The deal underscores the growing market focus on machine identity management as organizations grapple with an explosion of service accounts, API keys, and automated workflows. Non-human identities now vastly outnumber human users in enterprise environments, creating a critical attack surface.
Entro's platform provides centralized visibility and control over secrets such as tokens, certificates, and access keys across cloud and DevOps environments. The technology will be integrated into SailPoint's existing identity governance suite, which already manages human user access.
While the financial terms were not officially confirmed by either party, the reported valuation signals strong demand for specialized identity security capabilities. The acquisition is expected to close within the coming months, pending regulatory approvals.
This move positions SailPoint directly against rivals like CyberArk and HashiCorp in the rapidly expanding non-human identity security segment, a market analysts project will exceed $5 billion by 2027.
