Guinness World Record with MS… Every once in a while, you meet someone who changes your perspective on life and what’s possible… One of those people for me is Matt Knaggs, a member of the Quest Software team. Matt is currently attempting something extraordinary: running 350 miles across Ireland in an effort to set a Guinness World Record. That alone is incredible. But what makes his story remarkable is that Matthew is doing it while living with MS (Multiple Sclerosis). Most people see a diagnosis and think about limitations. Matt sees purpose. He’s using this challenge to raise awareness, inspire others, and prove that determination can be stronger than the obstacles life puts in front of us. It’s no surprise that his journey has drawn attention from people like Montel Williams, another well-known advocate in the MS community. At Quest, we spend a lot of time talking about solving hard problems, resilience, and pushing boundaries. Matthew reminds us that those aren’t just business values… they’re human values! No matter what happens with the record, he’s already accomplished something bigger. He’s given countless people a reason to believe they can take one more step, one more mile, one more chance. Matt, all of us at Quest are cheering you on. We couldn’t be prouder to have you on our team. Join me in wishing him luck on this incredible journey. 💪👊🙌 GO Matthew Knaggs!!!

PARTNERS AND QUEST SOFTWARE! Yesterday's acquisition of Anetac is about much more than adding technology. It’s about helping organizations secure identity in a world where AI, automation, and non-human identities are growing exponentially. As enterprises adopt agentic AI, the number of identities requiring governance, visibility, and protection is exploding. Traditional approaches built around periodic reviews and point-in-time access snapshots simply aren't enough. That’s why we acquired Anetac. Anetac’s continuous identity posture and exposure management capabilities provide organizations with real-time visibility into identity risk across human, machine, service, and privileged identities... helping security teams find and address risk before it becomes a breach. Just as important, this acquisition reinforces our commitment to partners. With the launch of the Quest Partner Program https://lnkd.in/ganjN9w6, all of Quest’s new security solutions built for the agentic age will be sold exclusively through partners. We believe our partners are uniquely positioned to help customers navigate the complexity of modern identity security and AI-driven transformation. In fact, several of our strategic partners helped validate this acquisition and shared their excitement about bringing these capabilities to their customers. Their feedback reinforced what we were already hearing from the market: organizations need a better way to understand and manage identity risk in real time. This is a partner-first investment in the future of identity security. We're excited to work alongside our partners to bring this much-needed capability to customers around the world. https://lnkd.in/gCfgVnUT #IdentitySecurity #CyberSecurity #AI #AgenticAI #PartnerFirst #QuestSoftware #IdentityGovernance #ITDR #ZeroTrust

Today, Quest Software announced the acquisition of Anetac! This isn't just about adding another security product. It's about solving a problem that is growing exponentially. For years, identity security focused primarily on people. But today's enterprises are managing far more than human identities. Service accounts, machine identities, APIs, AI agents, and autonomous workflows now outnumber human users in many organizations. At the same time, AI is accelerating the creation of new identities, new permissions, and new pathways to sensitive data. The challenge is that most organizations still rely on periodic reviews and point-in-time assessments of access. In a world of continuously changing identities and permissions, that's no longer enough. Security teams need real-time visibility into who… or what… has access to critical systems, how that access is being used, and where risk is emerging before it becomes a breach. That's why we're excited about Anetac. By combining Anetac's capabilities with Quest's identity security platform, we're advancing our vision of helping customers continuously discover, understand, govern, and secure identities across their environments… whether those identities are human, non-human, or AI-driven. Identity has become the new security perimeter. As AI reshapes the enterprise, organizations need visibility that is continuous, intelligent, and actionable. This acquisition is another step toward delivering that future. @quest is BUILDING NEW software and acquiring newly built software leveraging our years of expertise and trust in this identity space… Stay tuned for MORE TO COME! Excited for our customers, partners, and the team as we continue building what's next in identity security! https://lnkd.in/gpWbJVfi

Today, we launched Quest Edge, a complete rearchitecture of how Quest and our partners create value together. This initiative is one I’m proud of. The previous model rewarded transactions, but this new approach rewards outcomes. That’s the shift we are making. Partners now engage across three motions: Build, Sell, and Service. The more of the customer lifecycle they own, the greater their economics with us. This alignment is intentional. We developed this because enterprise customers no longer buy software; they adopt platforms. Our partners need to reflect that, and now they will. As Maureen writes in her blog: “We believe the future of enterprise software is defined by customer outcomes, not transaction volume. We believe the channel partners who will matter most in three years are the ones building deep, outcome-oriented practices today. And we believe the right response to that conviction is to structure our program - our incentives, our enablement, our go-to-market support - to attract and reward exactly those partners.” I’ve observed companies win deals and lose customers, not due to product failures, but because of poor handoffs. Nobody owned what happened after the signature. Quest Edge is our solution to issues like that. We’re building a partner ecosystem that remains engaged long after the deal closes because that's where the real work happens and where the real value is created. I’m proud of what Maureen and the team have built here. This is the right bet. https://lnkd.in/gfM5kP54 Quest Software Maureen Perrelli Matthew Fairbanks Laura Fritzlen

Reduce the need to hire a DE-II to help build the next generation of our Distribution platform. Give your current employees the solutions they need, to do it now! Quest Software helps organizations design, deliver, operate, and trust the data that fuels their AI initiatives, using the platforms they already own. Elastic cloud platforms can scale symptoms, but they don’t fix root‑cause data issues. Eric Iverson let's chat.
