Aveksa Named a Leader in Gartner Magic Quadrant

We’re pleased to announce that Aveksa was named a Leader in the new “Magic Quadrant for Identity and Access Governance”, published last month by Gartner. In the report, the authors (Gartner Analysts Earl Perkins and Perry Carpenter) state: “managing identity and access is more than an operational concern. Rather, it requires governance of identity and entitlement life cycles in the enterprise.”

They also note that the need for (and recognition of the need for) identity and access management governance is growing – they estimate that IAG-led projects will double from one-third of all IAM projects, to two-thirds by 2013.

We’re happy to have been named a leader in this report, and are grateful to our customers — the reason for our success.

Aveksa a Leader in Forrester Wave Report

Yesterday, independent research firm Forrester Research, Inc.  released a new Wave report: The Forrester Wave™ : Role Management and Access Recertification: Q3 2011. This is the first ranked analyst report for the Access Governance market space, and we’re very pleased to have been ranked as a leading vendor for both strategy and current offering.  See our press release  for the official word on this, and information about how to obtain a copy of the report.

The team here at Aveksa has worked hard on this, and worked closely with the folks at Forrester for the past few months. This is definitely a result that we’re proud of — but most importantly, I’d like to thank our customers, who are truly the ones responsible for our success.
