Deloitte named a Leader in the inaugural IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Digital Identity Services 2026 Vendor Assessment

NEW YORK, NY, USA, 12 November 2026 — Deloitte has been named a Leader in the inaugural IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Digital Identity Services 2026 Vendor Assessment (Doc #US53011526, October 2026). Deloitte was one of five vendors named a Leader among the 17 vendors evaluated by IDC.

Deloitte provides end-to-end digital identity services spanning strategy, implementation, and managed operations through the Advise-Implement-Operate (AIO) model. The organization also brings experience in accelerating client onboarding, building deep alliances with leading identity vendors, and engaging executives on AI-related topics.

“As organizations navigate the rise of AI agents and non-human identities across increasingly complex enterprise environments, digital identity has become an important foundation for cyber resilience,” says Ayan Chatterjee, Deloitte Global Cyber leader. “Through Deloitte’s Cyber AIO model, combined with its depth of industry knowledge and multidisciplinary teams, Deloitte helps organizations create robust digital identity strategies tailored to their needs, while also strengthening security and governance to help enable better business outcomes.”

“With the adoption of AI, organizations need an identity approach that connects governance, access, and monitoring across human, machine, and AI agent identities,” says Alex Bolante, managing director, Deloitte & Touche LLP. “By combining deep identity experience with intelligent automation and Agentic AI, Deloitte helps clients modernize identity operations, strengthen oversight, and manage identity risk at scale.”

According to the IDC MarketScape, Deloitte was recognized for:

• Regulatory compliance and data protection: “Deloitte’s core strengths include deep expertise in audit, regulatory compliance, and data protection. These capabilities are particularly valuable for clients in highly regulated sectors, where identity controls must satisfy auditors, regulators, and security teams. By pairing identity delivery with governance and risk advisory experience, Deloitte helps clients align identity programs with broader compliance objectives.”
• Global scale with local and regional delivery: “Deloitte’s managed IAM portfolio is supported by a global operation, with local and regional delivery centers.”
• Advanced AI capabilities: “The firm has also developed advanced AI capabilities for securing workforce, end users, machines, and non-human identities, and it can offer delivery across Identity Governance and Administration, Identity Access Management, and Privileged Access Management (IGA, AM, and PAM) products.”
