Identity Governance and Administration
(IGA)

We loveWe love What is Identity Governance and Administration (IGA)?

​Identity Governance and Administration is the culmination of Identity Management (IdM), Access Management (AM or IAM combined) and access certifications.

 

At a high level IGA helps answers these questions for your users, be employees or customers:

• Are users who they say they are?

• Are they allowed to perform the action, or access the data, they are intending to?

• Do they only have the minimum permissions required to perform the action and not anything more?

• When did the user get the access and how?

• Are you sure your user credentials are not breached?

• How soon can I revoke user access if you identify or suspect malicious activity?

​

Sprinkle the above with the below and you have a robust IGA/IAM framework in place:

• User Life Cycle Management

• Compliance and Monitoring

• Auditing and Reporting

• Just in Time Access

• Privileged Access Management

• Single Sign-On

• Risk-based or Adaptive Multi-Factor Authentication

 

​

Remember Identity is the first pillar of the Zero Trust Architecture.
