Veza Introduces Next-Gen IGA Solution to Deliver Identity Security for the Enterprise

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, October 10, 2023

Identity security is a top priority because research shows that 80% of cyberattacks leverage identity-based techniques. Organizations need processes to reduce the permissions sprawl that allows attacks to succeed. Reflecting that need, NIST has proposed the addition of “govern” to its widely-used Cybersecurity Framework (CSF)--the first update in a decade. According to Gartner® Market Guide for Identity Governance and Administration, “IGA tools have not kept up with demand for machine (device and workload) identity management capabilities, forcing companies to pursue separate solutions in many cases.” Traditional IGA products have blind spots with access because they were built for an era with dramatically fewer permissions.

Key Points: 
  • Today Veza , the identity security company, announced the launch of its Next-Gen IGA (Identity Governance and Administration) solution.
  • The solution comprises the Veza Access Control Platform and new products for provisioning and deprovisioning, access reviews, access visibility, and access intelligence.
  • Veza powers Next-Gen IGA with the Veza Access Control Platform, which ingests and analyzes authorization permission metadata from enterprise systems and organizes it into the Veza Authorization Graph.
  • Moreover, the Veza platform allows us to manage the entire lifecycle of an identity, meeting both security and compliance needs.
