Identity and Access Management is New Center of Gravity

Aveksa has announced that for the second year in a row, it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the “Leaders” quadrant of the analyst firm’s annual “Magic Quadrant for Identity and Access Governance” report.[1]

The new Magic Quadrant report from Gartner identifies the leading providers of Identity and Access Governance (IAG) solutions after a thorough examination of the offerings, differentiators and strategies of vendors in the IAG market. Vendors were evaluated based on their ability to execute and completeness of vision.

In the report, which was published on December 17, 2012, Gartner Analyst Earl Perkins states “Identity and access governance is replacing user administration and provisioning as the new center of gravity for identity and access management”, and “Today, IAG is the fastest growing sector of Identity and Access Management (IAM)”[1], with 2012 growth rates in excess of 35%.

“Gartner’s latest Magic Quadrant report for Identity and Access Governance clearly demonstrates the strategic importance of IAG as enterprises continue to work to optimize access controls for both on-premise and cloud-based applications and data,” said Vick Viren Vaishnavi, president and CEO of Aveksa. “The report also cites the importance of scalability and extensibility in order for IAG solutions to meet rapidly growing end user requirements. Aveksa is very proud to be named a leader in the IAG market, the fastest growing segment of Identity and Access Management.”
