Oleria has launched Adaptive Identity Governance, an AI-native platform that deploys in under an hour and provides organisations with real-time visibility into access permissions. The system aims to replace legacy identity governance and administration (IGA) solutions. The platform uses Oleria's Trustfusion technology, which continuously aggregates identity, entitlement and activity data across cloud, SaaS, on-premises and custom applications. This enables organisations to make access decisions based on real-time data rather than periodic manual reviews. CEO Jim Alkove, a former Fortune 150 chief information security officer, said legacy IGA systems have been "broken for over two decades", requiring lengthy implementations and ongoing consultant costs whilst delivering minimal security improvements. Oleria's system automates lifecycle governance and embeds workflows into employee productivity tools.

Built for the AI era: how Oleria's unified Identity Security approach is validated by the industry. From FORTUNE's Top 50 in Cybersecurity to analyst reports, Oleria's 2025 industry recognition validates the market's need for a unified approach to identity security. Two years ago, Oleria Corp. started Oleria with a few bold assertions: that identity has become the primary battlefront of cybersecurity; that this diffuse battleground has stretched conventional identity security approaches past their breaking point; and that Oleria would build a completely new foundation that reimagines identity security for tomorrow's enterprise. This is exactly what Oleria Corp. has built with the Trustfusion platform from the ground up. It connects all that disparate identity and access activity data into one common schema and one intuitive access graph. And Oleria Corp. developed the functionalities that Oleria Corp. knew (from experience) security practitioners need to monitor, manage, and remediate identity and access risks, without slowing down the business. It's unified, intuitive, and simple. And that makes it powerful. Today, Oleria Corp. is seeing the broader security industry echo the core tenets of Oleria's vision for the future of identity. And Oleria Corp. is seeing Oleria earn more recognition for delivering the innovation needed to make that vision tomorrow's reality. From leading analysts, to investors, to the growing list of fast-moving, forward-leaning organizations deploying Oleria as the foundation for their identity programs, it's clear that the industry is hungry for security that's built for the AI era. Top 50 in Cybersecurity: recognition of a shared vision for the future of identity security. Oleria was named among the Top 50 in Cybersecurity 2025 by Evolution Equity Partners and Fortune, honoring companies driving the next wave of cybersecurity innovation. This is an affirmation of what Oleria Corp. has said from the beginning: Incremental adaptation can't solve today's identity challenges. The only path forward is a fundamental reimagining that unifies visibility, context, and control across every human, non-human, and AI identity and across the entire hybrid enterprise ecosystem. So security teams can make confident decisions at the speed of the business. This Top 50 recognition affirms that its vision for adaptive, autonomous identity security isn't a future must-have - it's what enterprises need right now if they want to confidently accelerate automation and AI innovation. Analyst recognition for unified visibility and control. Fragmentation remains one of the top challenges of the enterprise tech landscape, and it plagues security teams, GRC managers, and business managers alike. Oleria's data-first, AI-ready platform solves this by delivering a unified view across all human, non-human, and AI identities. This approach allows Oleria Corp. to unify disparate data into a common schema, enriching it with usage activity to provide fine-grained visibility down to individual resources - a capability that sets Oleria Corp. apart in the market. More practically, it finally gives security teams a unified platform where they can take faster action on rich, contextual insights - and ends the "swivel chair" experience of switching between disjointed tools and manually correlating data across platforms. Gartner Hype Cycle(TM) and Market Guide highlights. This core capability - unifying visibility and control for identity and access - has been validated through growing analyst recognition: * Gartner(R) Hype Cycle(TM) for Digital Identity, 2025(14 July - article requires subscription) named Oleria as a Sample Vendor in the "Identity Visibility and Intelligence Platforms" market that "provides rapid integration and visibility for identity and access management relevant data, typically paired with advanced analytics (often AI-enabled) capabilities". * 2025 Gartner Market Guide for Identity Governance and Administration (2 October - article requires subscription) recognized Oleria as an IGA data visibility/visualization specialist vendor that "enables modeling of more complex identity, account, role, group and entitlement relationships". * Gartner Hype Cycle for Workload and Network Security, 2025(14 July - article requires subscription) mentioned Oleria in the "Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management" market. Together, in its opinion, these reports reflect a growing consensus: security teams don't need new point solutions to fill gaps - they need a unified platform that gives them the context and control to act with confidence and speed. Identity security built by operators, for operators and recognized by industry experts. Oleria's unique approach stems from the frontline experiences of its leadership. Its co-founders, Jim Alkove and Jagadeesh Kunda, built the company around the challenges they felt firsthand working in CISO and security operator roles: they understood that identity was at the core of Zero Trust, and that it needed to be managed with precision and real-time insight - not manual processes and clicks/keystrokes. They set out to build a solution that would give security practitioners the capabilities and confidence that they would have wanted when they were in those roles: a single platform to give clear visibility into every identity, every app, and every piece of cloud infrastructure - with both the necessary breadth and critical depth to help practitioners make faster, smarter decisions. These practitioner-focused roots make the following recognition all the more meaningful: * 2025 GigaOM Radar for Identity Security Posture Management included Oleria Corp. as a Challenger and outperformer in their "Innovation/Platform Play" quadrant. They highlighted its standout capabilities: "effective use of AI to identify and remediate identity risks, and streamline complex analysis through natural language queries. The robust access graph stands out as a core differentiator. It provides a visual, intuitive representation of identity posture by mapping relationships between accounts, roles, permissions, and resources, helping organizations clearly trace access paths and uncover risk exposures". * In Gartner's Reduce Your IAM Attack Surface Using Visibility, Observability, and Remediation report(8 October 2025 - link requires subscription), Oleria was named as one of the vendors that offer a variety of IAM visibility perspectives. Rebecca Archambault, a Sr Director Analyst, noted that "IAM leaders can strengthen security across centralized and decentralized environments using visibility, observability, and remediation to reduce the identity attack surface, improving their overall security posture." * Tech Target's principal analyst Todd Thiemann included Oleria as one of the "emerging innovators that across a range of different areas are among the tools that have come onto the identity security address pain points and fill gaps". Thank you Todd. * Francis Odum, founder at Software Analyst Cybersecurity Research, confirmed this market shift, noting Oleria as a vendor in the "identity governance centric" part of the ecosystem below. The future of identity security. Its customers' trust drives everything Oleria Corp. do, and Oleria's growing industry recognition validates what Oleria Corp. has done so far - but it's also tremendously motivating: its customers, investors, analysts, and other industry leaders are telling Oleria Corp. that Oleria Corp. is on the right path, building what's critically needed today, and defining what tomorrow's identity models must look like. That collective momentum is already shaping the industry. Oleria's CEO, Jim Alkove, recently led a SINET CISO working group in producing a blueprint for managing identities in the age of AI, which provides a definitive vision for unified enterprise identity, a future-ready reference architecture, and an identity maturity model for advancing identity to an optimized state. As Jim put it, "Identity is no longer just about protecting systems. It's about enabling the business to thrive in a world that's constantly changing." That message points to a bigger takeaway: To Oleria Corp., the recognition Oleria Corp. has received this year represent milestones on a shared journey toward a more connected, automated future of identity and security.
