Silverfort Alternative

The Modern Alternative to Silverfort

Go beyond authentication and MFA with a complete identity security platform. TigerIdentity provides full NHI lifecycle management, secrets discovery, AI agent governance, and continuous authorization - not just authentication enforcement.

Why TigerIdentity?

Get a full identity security platform that extends beyond authentication with NHI lifecycle, secrets, and AI governance.

Full NHI Lifecycle Management

Complete discovery, inventory, and governance for every service account, API key, bot, and automation identity. Silverfort focuses on authenticating NHIs, not managing their lifecycle.

Secrets Discovery & Scanning

Discover exposed secrets across code repositories, cloud environments, CI/CD pipelines, and SaaS applications - a capability Silverfort does not provide.

AI Agent Governance

Native MCP gateway for monitoring and governing AI agents, detecting shadow agents, and securing AI tool usage. Silverfort has no AI agent security capabilities.

Continuous Authorization

Go beyond authentication with continuous access evaluation. TigerIdentity enforces dynamic policies throughout a session, not just at the point of login.

Identity Posture Management

Continuous A-F posture scoring across your entire identity estate with actionable remediation guidance, beyond Silverfort's authentication-centric view.

Ownership Attribution

Map every NHI, secret, and AI agent to a human owner. Establish clear accountability for non-human identities that Silverfort's MFA-focused model does not address.
