As the lead strategist for Saviynt, Teixeira will be responsible
for setting Saviynt’s future direction and long term identity and
access management roadmap, including messaging, defining and
leading research, advisory and thought leadership, as well as
supporting Saviynt’s Identity Governance and Administration (IGA)
and Privileged Access Management (PAM) development and working
closely with customers.
"We are thrilled to welcome Henrique as Saviynt’s new Senior
Vice President of Strategy,” said Sachin Nayyar, CEO at Saviynt.
“Henrique is one of the most influential voices in the identity
industry today. His insights have elevated the critical role of
Identity Access Management (IAM) and IGA, and helped recognize the
evolving nature of our industry. Henrique’s exceptional acumen,
understanding and experience with the identity challenges will help
Saviynt achieve our goal of elevating frictionless identity.”
Teixeira brings more than two decades of identity and
cybersecurity expertise and leadership to Saviynt. Most recently,
Teixeira was the Vice President, Research for Identity and Access
Management at Gartner. While at Gartner, Teixeira chaired the
Gartner IAM Summit in North America and was the global track
manager for IAM at all Gartner Security and Risk Management summits
around the globe.
Teixeira has helped thousands of leaders to make smart and fast
decisions by providing insights about the latest IAM trends,
predictions and actionable best practices. He has created and
influenced the direction of entire cybersecurity markets, like
coining the cloud infrastructure entitlement management (CIEM)
acronym, and co-authored identity threat detection and response
(ITDR). Teixeira has authored several research notes about IGA,
CIEM, CIAM, and was the lead author of the Magic Quadrant for
Access Management.
Prior to Gartner, Teixeira was IBM’s Worldwide Security
Architect Leader for IAM. He also held numerous architect and
leadership roles at Microsoft, Oracle, CA Technologies and BMC
Software.
“I am very happy to be joining Saviynt at this moment in my
career. I’ve observed the significant impact the company has had on
the identity industry. I like the technology it provides today, and
I am glad to drive Saviynt’s strategy to operate at even higher
levels,” said Teixeira, who also explains in greater detail why he
chose Saviynt. “During my time at Gartner, I spoke with
organizations large and small that struggle to manage their
identities, especially IGA. Without IGA, organizations don't have
the necessary plumbing for processes to flow; it's as if running a
country without potable water.”
Teixeira continued, “Saviynt was created to challenge the status
quo – and they are succeeding. The company offers the industry’s
most innovative cloud IGA platform on the market. I am confident
that together we will solve the industry’s most pressing identity
problems and help safeguard each company for the future.”
Organizations have increasingly turned to Saviynt’s Identity
Cloud to maximize return on investment (ROI), lower costs, reduce
complexity, and streamline IAM processes. The company’s major cloud
platform capabilities build on key areas of identity governance,
privileged access management (PAM) and identity analytics and
intelligence to help organizations embrace Zero Trust
principles.
