The identity and access management market size was valued at USD 15.93 billion in 2022 and is projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.6% from 2023 to 2030.

Identity and access management (IAM) assures that the appropriate person and job position (identities) in an organization have access to the tools they need to perform their duties.

The rising cases of fraudulent and cybercrime activities are driving organizations to implement IAM systems as a result of the rapid adoption of the cloud and the advancement of new technologies. IAM uses identity analytics and intelligence to monitor unusual user account activity.
