DALLAS, Sept. 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SafePaaS, a leader in identity security, access controls and enterprise governance, today announced that it has been named a Representative Vendor in the 2026 Gartner® Market Guide for Identity Governance and Administration.

The recognition comes as organizations face a radically different identity landscape. Employees and contractors now operate alongside service accounts, workloads and autonomous AI agents, all capable of accessing sensitive systems, data and business processes. Yet many organizations still rely on legacy identity platforms designed primarily to administer users and roles, with limited coverage across all enterprise identities – exposed to cyberattacks

SafePaaS is a modern platform based on a federated identity architecture that connects across all sources of identities and entitlements. Organizations can easily upgrade to SafePaaS from legacy IGA to improve identity visibility, access governance, regulatory compliance, risk management, and transaction monitoring. SafePaaS customers achieve rapid ROI by enabling full identity visibility across the digital platform to ensure compliance with access policies, evaluate the risk in business context, and take actions before inappropriate access becomes an audit finding, security incident or fraudulent transaction.

Unlike complex legacy IGA systems that can take years to deploy across an enterprise, SafePaaS accelerates the onboarding of human and “non-human” identities across cloud, SaaS and on-premises applications. This gives organizations a more affordable and complete path to broader governance coverage and faster time to value.

“AI has changed the identity landscape permanently,” said Adil Khan, CEO of SafePaaS. “Organizations cannot safely unlock the value of AI if they cannot see where AI agents are operating, what they can access, who owns them, or what actions they are taking. SafePaaS delivers the identity intelligence, compliance context and safeguards organizations need to move at AI speed without losing control.”

SafePaaS extends governance beyond the moment access is granted. By connecting identities and entitlements to business controls and transactions, the platform enables multi-layered guardrails that continuously govern what Humans and AI agents can do, not simply confirm that an account or role exists.

The result is identity governance built for modern enterprise realities: continuous rather than periodic, business-aware rather than technically isolated, and designed to enable innovation without compromising security, compliance or affordability.
