IBM Security Identity vs Microsoft Identity
On-prem IAM/IGA/PAM/MFA: directories, federation, privileged access, SSO. Counts are scoped to this segment and the selected published-date window. IBM Security Identity carries 54.5× the disclosed CVE volume of Microsoft Identity. Volume reflects disclosure practice and install base as much as code quality — read it with the severity mix. Sourced from the NIST NVD; lower counts indicate a smaller disclosed vulnerability surface — not necessarily lower risk.
