Powering Identity Through Governance, Access, and Compliance.

Fischer Identity delivers a comprehensive suite of Identity Governance & Administration (IGA) and Identity Access Management (IAM) solutions. Available as individual modules or as an integrated suite, our platform empowers organizations to streamline lifecycle management, strengthen security, and maintain audit readiness at scale.

IGA vs. IAM

IGA and IAM. Similar Terms, Different Focus.

Many organizations and Identity vendors use the terms Identity Governance & Administration (IGA) and Identity Access Management (IAM) interchangeably, but they serve distinct purposes within an identity strategy. IGA ensures the right people have the right access for the right reasons, focusing on governance, compliance, and lifecycle management. IAM, on the other hand, ensures users can securely and seamlessly log in and use the resources they’re entitled to, emphasizing authentication, authorization, and access control. Together, they form a complete identity framework that balances security, efficiency, and compliance.

The Fischer Identity platform unifies IGA and IAM into a single, seamless experience, giving organizations the power to govern, secure, and enable access from one place. By bridging governance and access, Fischer eliminates silos, reduces complexity, and delivers a comprehensive identity solution that scales with your business.
