Why identity visibility and IGA are stronger when combined.
✅ Achieve Intelligent Compliance
Trusted by Leading Companies
Executive Summary
Identity programs succeed when visibility and governance work hand in hand. IVIP provides continuous insight into who has access to what, while IGA enforces policies and manages access changes.
Together, they create a closed control loop that enables organisations to achieve intelligent, continuous compliance.
What is IVIP?
Introduced by Gartner, Identity Visibility and Intelligence Platforms (IVIP) form a new category alongside Identity Governance and Administration (IGA).
An Identity Visibility and Intelligence Platform (IVIP) provides a unified, accurate view of who can access what across all systems.
By integrating with existing IAM, PAM, and IGA tools and applying advanced analytics, an IVIP consolidates identity data into a single, trusted source of truth.
This visibility enables organizations — whether they are just beginning their identity security journey or already operating mature IAM programs — to strengthen security, streamline compliance, and make informed, data-driven access decisions.
What is an IGA?
Identity Governance & Administration (IGA) platforms manage how access is granted, reviewed, and removed across systems. They automate approvals, enforce policies, and ensure that every access change follows defined governance rules.
Why IVIP and IGA Are Better Together
When IVIP and IGA work together, visibility and governance reinforce each other.
IVIP continuously detects and analyses access risks, while IGA acts on those insights through policy enforcement and remediation.
This creates a continuous feedback loop — detect, act, verify — that strengthens control and keeps compliance up to date at all times.
How IGA and IVIP Create a Continuous Control Cycle
The Outcome: Continuous, Intelligent Identity Governance
IVIP provides continuous visibility into identities and access risks, while IGA executes the necessary governance actions.
As IGA enforces changes, new data flows back into IVIP for verification and ongoing analysis. The result is a self-improving control cycle that keeps access accurate, compliant, and secure.
