Dignari founder and CEO Gena Alexa said: “For over a decade, Dignari has made a significant impact on furthering the federal government’s security mission with modern technologies.

“These efforts can be scaled across local and state governments as well — and when combined with the power of the EY network will strengthen outcomes for both the public sector and the people it serves.”

EY Americas Consulting vice chair Whitt Butler said that private sector companies can also benefit from the Dignari’s services under the EY brand.

Butler said: “Commercial sectors such as financial services and airlines, among others, will benefit from Dignari’s technology strengths in IAM.

“Together, Dignari and EY US are positioned on the cutting edge of how governments and businesses use technology to achieve results securely.”
