IAM

Identity and Access Management

Unify identity, access, and governance so the right people have the right access at the right time, while keeping privileged activity visible and contained.

What this solution is

Solution Description

Identity and Access Management (IAM) is the discipline of making sure the right people have the right access to the right resources, at the right time, and for the right reasons. It combines identity governance, privileged access management, access controls, and authentication into a single operating model.

Why this solution matters

Business Case

Most modern breaches involve credential abuse. Without strong IAM, your data, applications, and infrastructure are only as secure as a single reused password. Mature IAM is also a hard requirement for ISO/IEC 27001, PCI DSS, SOC 2, NESA, and SAMA CSF, and it is the foundation that every other security control depends on.

What the solution includes and what gets delivered

Solution Features / Deliverables

  • Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) - joiner/mover/leaver lifecycle, role design, access reviews
  • Privileged Access Management (PAM) - vaulting, session recording, just-in-time elevation
  • Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and risk-based authentication rollouts
  • Single Sign-On (SSO) across SaaS, cloud, and on-premises applications
  • Conditional Access policies integrated with endpoint, network, and threat signals
  • Access recertification campaigns with auditable evidence
  • Integration with HR, ITSM, and directory systems as the authoritative source of identity
  • Reporting packs mapped to ISO A.5.16 / A.5.18, PCI DSS 7 and 8, and NESA IAM controls

Identity and Access Management and Identity Governance

Identity and Access Management and Identity Governance and Administration Solutions

Each solution is delivered as its own workstream and can be rolled out independently or together, depending on the customer's identity maturity.

Identity and Access Governance

Governance over joiners, movers, and leavers with policy-driven access, certification campaigns, and segregation-of-duties controls.

Customer Identity and Access Management

CIAM that scales registration, login, consent, and fraud controls for consumer and citizen-facing applications.

User Access Review

Recurring, evidence-based access reviews that satisfy auditors and reduce standing privilege across critical systems.

Privileged Access Management

Vaulting, brokering, and session control for privileged accounts, with just-in-time access and full session recording.

Database Activity Monitoring

Real-time monitoring and policy enforcement for database access, including privileged user activity and sensitive queries.
