Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) joins the list of acronyms along with IAM and PAM. The term gained acceptance in 2013 after Gartner merged two of its Magic Quadrants–one addressing Identity Governance and the other Identity Administration–into the Magic Quadrant for Identity Governance and Administration.
