Gartner defines IGA as the enterprise solution to manage digital identity life cycle and govern user access across on-premises and cloud environments. To accomplish this, IGA tools aggregate and correlate disparate identity and access rights data that is distributed throughout the IT landscape to enhance control over human and machine access. GA’s must-have capabilities: - Identity life cycle management - Access request process - Basic analytics and reporting
Gartner defines privileged access management (PAM) as tools that administer or configure systems and applications to provide an elevated level of technical access through the management and protection of accounts, credentials and commands. PAM tools, available as software, SaaS or hardware appliances, manage privileged access for both people (system administrators and others) and machines (systems or applications). Gartner defines four distinct tool categories for PAM tools: Privileged account and session management (PASM), privilege elevation and delegation management (PEDM), secrets management and cloud infrastructure entitlement management (CIEM) .

Gartner defines user authentication as the journey-time process that provides credence in a claim to an identity established for a person for access to digital assets. User authentication is delivered by some combination of (a) an authenticator, (b) signals evaluation and (c) an authentication decision point, which may be from different vendors. User authentication is used to provide credence in an identity claim for a person already known to an organization. The credence must be sufficient to bring account takeover (ATO) risks within the organization’s risk tolerance. User authentication is foundational to and protects the value of other functions with an organization’s identity fabric, namely: runtime authorization, especially segregation of duties (SOD); audit (individual accountability); and identity analytics.
