Inside Gartner® Hype Cycle™ for Digital Identity, 2025

Identity is the #1 way attackers get in—and most teams lack the visibility to stop them. 2025 Gartner Hype Cycle names Identity Visibility and Intelligence Platforms (IVIP) as emerging.

What Gartner sees
“Traditional identity and access management (IAM) solutions are insufficient to manage modern workload identities and access. Workload identity management has emerged as a critical practice to manage identities, credentials and access permissions for machine identities, ensuring visibility into machine-to-machine interactions.”
Why this matters now
GenAI and machine identities are exploding
IAM tools weren’t built for cloud sprawl or toxic entitlements
Visibility is the new control plane
Get ahead of the curve.
IVIP–a new foundation for identity-first security.
