RSA, the security-first identity leader, today announced KuppingerCole Analysts AG has named RSA® Governance & Lifecycle an Overall, Product, Market, and Innovation Leader in its 2024 Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) Leadership Compass Report, which provides “CISOs and security leaders responsible for IAM the most practical and relevant information they need to evaluate technology vendors.”

Identity governance and administration (IGA) capabilities provide “a centralized view of who has access, who provided the access, and who has access for how long,” explains the report. IGA is critical to moving toward Zero Trust and preventing threat actors from moving laterally in an environment. IGA also helps organizations provide users with the entitlements they need, fulfill compliance requirements, complete audits.

“Growing numbers of users, devices, entitlements, and environments create a larger, more vulnerable attack surface. That’s why security-first leaders in government financial services, healthcare, energy, manufacturing, and more rely on RSA Governance & Lifecycle to manage and secure more than 13 trillion entitlements across cloud and on-premise IT environments and successfully implement Zero Trust strategies.” said RSA CEO Rohit Ghai.

“Being named a KuppingerCole IGA Overall, Product, Market, and Innovation Leader for six consecutive years underscores the core features that have always been central to RSA Governance & Lifecycle as well as the innovations that we’ve continued bringing to the solution,” said RSA Chief Product and Technology Officer Jim Taylor. “By bringing new features like gamification to make compliance processes more engaging to advanced dashboards that help analysts triage high-priority risks, RSA is continuing to bring innovations to market that help our customers defend a growing attack surface.”

The KuppingerCole Leadership Compass report notes several strengths that RSA Governance & Lifecycle delivers, including:

  • New advanced dashboards are configurable and provide wide range of information for reporting
  • An analytics-driven risk engine for better insights into access governance
  • Supports all known deployment models

Earlier this year, KuppingerCole named RSA a leader in its 2024 Identity Fabrics Leadership Compass, which assessed organizations on the vendors that can “deliver the full range of identity services required by an organization,” including multi-factor authentication (MFA), hardware-based authentication, mobile security, AI-driven risk management, and IGA.
