What is IGA?

IGA stands for Identity Governance and Administration. It refers to a set of policies and technologies used to manage digital identities and access rights within an organization. IGA systems automate the management of user accounts, access privileges, roles, and entitlements across various applications and systems. Key functionalities include user provisioning and deprovisioning, access certification, role management, privileged access management, and compliance reporting. IGA helps organizations ensure that the right people have the right access to the right resources at the right time, while also meeting regulatory compliance requirements and reducing security risks.
