Overview

Saviynt is a cloud-native Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) platform that unifies access certification, privileged access management (PAM), and application access governance for enterprises, government agencies, and other regulated organizations. Founded in 2010 and headquartered in El Segundo, California, it secures more than 100 million identities — including human, non-human, and AI agents — across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. The platform is FedRAMP Moderate authorized and holds SOC 1/2, ISO 27001, and PCI-DSS certifications, making it a frequent choice for finance, healthcare, and public-sector customers with strict compliance requirements.

The problem Saviynt solves

Enterprises managing thousands of identities across cloud, hybrid, and SaaS applications struggle to enforce least-privilege access, prove compliance to auditors, and secure privileged accounts using disconnected point tools. Saviynt addresses this with a converged, cloud-native IGA platform that unifies access certification, privileged access management, and application governance in a single control plane, backed by FedRAMP, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 certifications for regulated environments.

Decision context

Use these points to test whether the product fits your operation, not just whether it has a long feature list.

  • Published starting price: Custom pricing. Confirm user, usage, and feature limits for the plan you would actually buy.
  • Deployment: cloud. Check security, data-residency, and access requirements for every team that will use it.
  • Verified integrations include AWS, Microsoft Azure AD, SAP, ServiceNow, CrowdStrike, Oracle. Validate sync direction and plan limits for the connections that matter.
  • A last-checked date is not recorded; confirm current details directly with the vendor.
