ForgeRock, a global digital identity leader, yesterday announced its new ForgeRock Identity Governance solution, a comprehensive cloud-native governance offering designed to help solve security and compliance challenges for large enterprises at scale.
By converging ForgeRock Identity Governance with the company’s industry leading Identity and Access Management platform, enterprises gain efficiencies and cost savings with the ability to manage, secure, and govern identities throughout their entire lifecycle – all from a single platform.
Built on Google Cloud, ForgeRock’s Identity Governance solution uses AI and machine learning (ML) to help organizations determine whether employees should or shouldn’t have access to applications and data. By leveraging ForgeRock’s comprehensive platform, security decisions become immediately actionable for IT teams. Excessive access can be automatically removed, and approved access can automatically be granted and used – without the need to integrate additional products or solutions.
The accelerated growth of the hybrid workforce, employee job changes, and the increasing adoption of cloud-based applications and services has resulted in a strong need for a governance solution that manages all identities. With the introduction of ForgeRock Identity Governance, enterprises can achieve a complete understanding of all their identity provisioning, administration, compliance and employee access management needs. Organisations can more effectively adhere to governance policies, enforce least privilege access, and ensure a Zero Trust security environment.
ForgeRock’s approach creates the industry’s most compelling offering. It combines three primary components; Access Certifications to accelerate manager access decision-making with AI-suggested recommendations, Access Requests to provide users with a 24/7 self-service portal and automate application access, and Segregation of Duties to ensure regulatory compliance when and where you need it.
Starting with Access Certifications, ForgeRock Identity Governance will be available in the beginning of 2023 and delivered through the ForgeRock Identity Cloud.

Our vision is to create a self-driving enterprise where humans remain in control but are aided by machines to stay abreast of the volume and velocity of access changes their IT teams face everyday. Today’s governance solutions aren’t enough. ForgeRock Identity Governance is part of a comprehensive workforce solution that combines cloud, governance, access management and powerful machine learning into a single offering that delivers both security and compliance.
