Saviynt is a technology company.
Saviynt delivers intelligent, cloud-first identity governance and access management (IGA) solutions. Its platform extends identity security, enforcing zero trust principles by governing access for human, machine, application, and data identities. Core capabilities include comprehensive identity governance, privileged access management, and secure non-human identity management. This holistic approach helps organizations manage and secure access across complex digital ecosystems.
The company was founded by Sachin Nayyar, who serves as CEO and Chairman of the Board. Nayyar established Saviynt based on the insight that existing identity solutions were insufficient for enterprise security needs. His pedigree includes successfully founding prior cybersecurity and identity management firms, such as Vaau (acquired by Sun Microsystems), demonstrating his deep domain expertise in the field.
Saviynt's solutions are adopted by large enterprises across diverse industries, like financial services, healthcare, and manufacturing, modernizing identity security. The company envisions a world where identity is swift, secure, and trusted, enabling organizations to safeguard personnel, assets, and infrastructure through innovative cloud-native solutions that adapt to evolving cyber threats.

Saviynt is a cloud-native technology company specializing in AI-powered identity security and access management (IAM) solutions, particularly its Enterprise Identity Cloud (EIC) platform that unifies identity governance and administration (IGA), privileged access management (PAM), and application governance, risk, and compliance (GRC).[1][2][3][5] It serves large enterprises across sectors like financial services, healthcare, government, and education, solving critical challenges in securing human, non-human, and AI agent identities amid cloud migration, hybrid environments, and rising cyber threats by enabling efficient access control, risk prioritization, regulatory compliance, and automated lifecycle management.[1][3][4][6] With rapid growth fueled by significant funding and leadership under CEO Sachin Nayyar, Saviynt has positioned itself as a leader in modernizing identity programs for digital transformation, reducing operational complexity, and achieving FedRAMP authorization for public sector use.[1][2][5][6]
Founded in 2010 in Los Angeles (with headquarters in El Segundo, California), Saviynt emerged from a vision to disrupt legacy IAM solutions that failed to meet enterprise needs in cloud-first environments.[1][2][7] CEO Sachin Nayyar led the charge, recognizing identity's potential as a cornerstone of security and building an innovative platform from the ground up to handle governance, access, and compliance more effectively.[1][2] Early focus on cloud-built, cloud-managed solutions gained traction by addressing pain points in hybrid IT infrastructures, leading to rapid scaling as a global organization serving the world's largest enterprises and securing substantial funding to fuel expansion.[2][7]
Saviynt rides the explosive growth of cloud adoption, AI proliferation, and zero-trust security models, where traditional IAM struggles with managing exploding identities (human, machine, AI) across fragmented ecosystems.[2][3][5] Timing is ideal amid rising breaches, regulatory pressures (e.g., GDPR, FedRAMP), and hybrid/multi-cloud shifts, as enterprises prioritize identity-first security to enable digital transformation without exposure.[1][4][6] Market forces like AI-driven threats and compliance mandates favor Saviynt's converged, intelligent platform, which influences the ecosystem by setting standards for autonomous IAM, accelerating secure AI agent deployment, and helping organizations like financial firms and governments achieve "Cloud Smart" compliance.[3][6]
Saviynt is primed for unicorn-level expansion by embedding AI deeper into identity operations, targeting AI agent security as enterprises deploy more LLMs and autonomous systems. Trends like agentic AI, zero-trust evolution, and regulatory tightening will amplify demand for its SaviAI capabilities, potentially capturing more market share from legacy vendors. Its influence may grow through partnerships and public sector wins, solidifying its role as the go-to for resilient, scalable identity security in an AI-everywhere world—echoing its founding mission to redefine what's possible beyond the status quo.[2][3]
Saviynt has raised $1.1B across 4 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $700.0M Series B in December 2025.
