RSA, the security-first identity leader, announced that RSA ID Plus , the world’s most secure identity and access management (IAM) platform, has been named a Niche Player in the 2024 Gartner ® Magic Quadrant™ for Access Management.
With only ten companies named to the Gartner report, RSA believes the Magic Quadrant represents the world’s leading IAM vendors. ID Plus delivers comprehensive identity protection for some of the world’s most security-sensitive organizations in the banking, securities, insurance and government sectors. Available as a SaaS solution in both on-premises and hybrid configurations, ID Plus is a tool that provides organizations with flexibility to deploy and specialize in high-security workforce environments. With multiple subscription models and multiple editions and add-ons, ID Plus meets a variety of needs, supporting evolving workforce requirements and regulatory landscapes in markets across North America, South America, Europe and Asia Pacific.
RSA believes that several capabilities and strengths contributed to ID Plus being listed in the 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Access Management, including:
- High customer satisfaction and retention
- Expertise in workforce use cases, especially for high-security verticals
- Broad support for cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments
- A highly available, highly secure failover process that ensures uninterrupted access even during cloud outages
- Integrations with existing data and applications that enable buyers to maintain local settings
“For decades, RSA has set the standard in secure authentication, but our history goes far beyond that. Seeing ID Plus selected to the 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Access Management and recognized as a workforce security expert underscores the work we have done to develop a unified identity platform that can secure the entire identity lifecycle and protect highly regulated industries,” said Rohit Ghai, CEO, RSA.

“We believe that being selected to the Gartner Magic Quadrant establishes RSA as one of the top 10 IAM vendors in the world, and we don’t plan on going anywhere,” said Jim Taylor, RSA’s Chief Product and Technology Officer, who detailed why workforce access management is challenging for enterprises, how RSA supports customer access management, and the enterprise’s access management roadmap in a new blog post . “Workforce access management is difficult because it requires balancing security, usability, and scalability without missing a beat. I would rather RSA be recognized as a workforce security specialist than an access generalist—that’s where RSA delivers its value and meets the needs of our customers. With hundreds of IAM vendors worldwide, this recognition reinforces our commitment to providing all the access, authentication, governance, and lifecycle capabilities any enterprise needs.”
“While we are new to the Magic Quadrant, security-first industries have relied on our access management solutions for years,” said Greg Nelson, president and chief business officer, RSA. “Security-first leaders in government, financial services, energy and other regulated industries have long trusted RSA to provide trusted identity security solutions. We believe this recognition from Gartner demonstrates the strength of our strategy and reinforces our commitment to leading in all aspects of identity.”
Recent enhancements to ID Plus—including expanded identity insights, Bring Your Own Identity (BYOI) options, and OAuth 2.0 capabilities that support machine and IoT access—will bring greater depth of workforce security to the solution. RSA plans to introduce mobile access key functionality, significant directory enhancements, and enhanced AI and machine learning capabilities to help security administrators mitigate evolving threats.
