Episode notes
IAM Evolved In Generational Waves
- Identity management evolved in clear generations from provisioning to web access, governance, and cloud IaaS/IDaaS.
- Each wave shifted vendor power as needs (SOX, cloud) created new winners and acquisitions.
Compliance Created The Governance Wave
- SOX and compliance drove access governance to prominence and reshaped vendor offerings.
- Governance then pushed suites and acquisitions as large vendors scrambled to add missing capabilities.
Cloud Made Access Simpler
- Cloud and IDaaS enabled simpler, faster adoption, especially for access/authentication needs.
- ESSO failed because it required invasive app changes, making cloud SSO more attractive.
