While both PAM and IGA deal with access controls, they cover different domains. PAM is mostly concerned with access management of privileged accounts. Since they’re considered high-risk, PAM typically involves more control and monitoring. For instance, it includes an audit trail and real-time monitoring to ensure accountability. IGA, on the other hand, is broader and tackles access management for the entire organization. It handles digital identity, role-based access control, and data governance for all users. IGA is also concerned with providing temporary access to third parties. Both IGA and PAM are critical parts of a company’s overall identity management strategy. They need to work in tandem to keep the entire network secure.
