Workforce IAM, privileged access management (PAM) and identity governance (IGA), built so staff and contractors get the access they need, when they need it, and lose it when they do not — enforced by the system rather than promised in a policy, on the tools you already pay for.

The Real Problems
What's actually breaking in enterprise IAM
Standing privilege is your biggest untracked risk
Admin accounts that never expire, cloud consoles with always-on owner roles, and service desks that can reset anything. Examiners now test for just-in-time controls — standing access is an automatic finding.
You bought a PAM tool. You didn't buy PAM.
Vaulting a password changes where the credential lives — not who can reach it or for how long. Without session scoping, approval workflows, and rotation, the vault is just a locked drawer with everyone holding a key.
Role explosion makes RBAC unmanageable
Roles accumulate one exception at a time — a team, a project, a migration nobody unwound — and almost never get retired. Nobody can certify what nobody understands, so access reviews get rubber-stamped, and a review that approves everything with zero changes reads as a rubber stamp to every regulator.
Offboarded users persist for months
Every day of delay between HR termination and identity deprovisioning is a live account with production access. In banking and healthcare, that's also an examination finding waiting to happen.
What We Deliver
Six workstreams, one hardened identity plane
Zero Standing Privilege Architecture
JIT elevation with approval workflows and auto-expiry across cloud consoles, databases, servers, and CI/CD pipelines. Windows are scoped to the task — a production database elevation sized for the query, not the shift.
Conditional Access & Phishing-Resistant MFA
FIDO2 keys, passkeys, and CA policies mapped in both directions — FFIEC layered-security guidance, NYDFS Section 500.12 and HIPAA Section 164.312(d) on the US side; OSFI B-13 access-management expectations and PIPEDA safeguards on the Canadian side. One policy set, two evidence views.
JML Lifecycle Automation
Joiner-mover-leaver flows wired to your HR system of record, so offboarding is measured in hours — with the audit trail to prove it.
Role Mining & RBAC Rationalization
Usage-based role collapse from thousands to a certifiable model, then automated review campaigns that stay lean.
Break-Glass Protocol Design
Emergency access that's tested, logged, alarmed, and documented — because 'no glass to break' fails both audits and real incidents.
Privileged Session Recording & Forensics
Full keystroke and command logging on privileged sessions — searchable evidence for incident response and examinations.
Typical engagement: 6–10 weeks · delivered in sprints with measurable outcomes at each checkpoint · full knowledge transfer, runbooks included.
What we do not do: no managed service, no 24/7 SOC, no license resale. We build the control set and hand it to your team to run.
Platforms We Work With
We work in the consoles you already license, and we never resell them.*
* Platform and product names identify
systems we work with. They do not imply partnership, certification, or endorsement
by their owners.
How much standing privilege are you carrying right now?
Most teams are surprised by the number, and by who still holds it. We count it with you in 30 minutes and show what it would take to hand access out on request instead — on the tools you already pay for.
