User Provisioning & Deprovisioning
Manual provisioning creates delays, inconsistencies, and lingering access that attackers exploit. We automate user lifecycle management across your applications: Active Directory, cloud platforms, SaaS tools: so new starters have the right access on day one and departing employees are fully offboarded within minutes, not days.

Access control
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
Ad hoc permission assignments accumulate into an unmanageable tangle of over-privileged accounts. We design role hierarchies tied to your HR structure, implement separation of duties controls, and build access certification processes so your teams have exactly what they need: nothing more.

Privileged accounts
Privileged Access Management (PAM)
Privileged accounts: admins, service accounts, root credentials: are the highest-value targets in your environment. We implement PAM solutions that vault credentials, enforce just-in-time access, record privileged sessions, and require approval workflows for sensitive actions, reducing your blast radius if credentials are compromised.

Authentication
Single Sign-On (SSO) Implementation
Password sprawl leads to weak credentials, shared accounts, and shadow IT. We implement SAML 2.0 and OIDC-based SSO across your application stack: cloud and on-premise: giving users one secure login while giving your team centralized visibility into every access event.

Authentication
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Setup
Compromised passwords are behind most breaches. We deploy MFA across every access point: VPN, cloud applications, privileged consoles, and remote desktop: including phishing-resistant FIDO2 and hardware tokens for high-risk accounts, and push-based MFA for standard users.

Governance
Identity Governance (IGA)
"Who has access to what and why" is the first question every SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA auditor asks, and most organizations cannot answer it completely. We implement identity governance programs that map every entitlement across your environment, enforce policy-based access rules, detect access that violates separation of duties, and generate the evidence auditors require without your team having to reconstruct it manually each cycle.

Governance
Access Reviews & Certification
Access rights accumulate silently, someone joins a project, gets added to a group, moves to a different team, and the access stays. Over time, your environment fills with entitlements that exist for no current business reason, many of them to sensitive systems. We build structured access certification programs, quarterly reviews for privileged and sensitive systems, annual for standard access, with automated tooling that surfaces anomalies and gives reviewers the context to make real decisions, not just rubber-stamp a list.

Understanding IAM
What organizations need to know about identity and access management
What is IAM?
Identity and Access Management is the framework of policies, processes, and technologies that control who can access which systems, data, and resources, and under what conditions. A complete IAM program covers user lifecycle management, authentication, authorization, privileged access, and identity governance across cloud, on-premise, and SaaS environments.
Who needs it?
Every organization with remote workers, cloud infrastructure, SaaS sprawl, or privileged administrator accounts needs IAM. It becomes non-negotiable when HIPAA, SOC 2, ISO 27001, or PCI DSS require demonstrable control over who can access sensitive data, and when cyber insurance underwriters ask the same question during policy renewal.
Why does it matter?
Over 80% of breaches involve compromised credentials or excessive access. Former employees with active accounts, admins using shared passwords, and users with far more access than their role requires are among the most commonly exploited conditions in any environment. IAM directly limits the blast radius of a credential compromise, and is the first control auditors and cyber insurers evaluate.
How does an IAM program work?
A mature IAM program starts with identity governance, knowing who has access to what, then enforces least privilege through RBAC, automates the user lifecycle so access is granted and revoked accurately, protects privileged accounts through PAM, and strengthens authentication through MFA and SSO. Periodic access reviews catch what automated controls miss.
What Makes Us Different From Others

Every time someone left the company, we manually had to track down their access across 14 different systems. garrisonOne implemented a full IAM framework with automated provisioning, role-based access tied to HR data, and MFA across every application. Offboarding that used to take two days now takes ten minutes.

What is Identity and Access Management (IAM)?
IAM is the discipline of ensuring the right people have the right level of access to the right resources and that access is removed when it is no longer needed. It spans authentication, authorisation, provisioning, and ongoing governance.
How does IAM improve our security posture?
IAM directly reduces the attack surface by enforcing least privilege access, eliminating dormant accounts, and giving you full visibility into who can access what. Most data breaches involve compromised credentials, and strong IAM controls make those credentials far harder to exploit.
What is Single Sign-On (SSO) and why should we use it?
SSO lets users authenticate once and access all their authorised applications without logging in separately to each one. It improves user experience, reduces password fatigue, and when combined with MFA significantly strengthens security.
What is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?
MFA requires users to verify their identity with at least two factors, typically a password plus a one time code, push notification, or biometric. It is one of the most effective controls against account takeover, even when passwords are compromised.
What is Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)?
RBAC assigns access permissions based on a user's job role rather than individually. When someone changes roles or leaves, access adjusts automatically. It simplifies administration and makes it much easier to enforce least privilege at scale.
What are access reviews and how often should they happen?
Access reviews are structured checks to confirm that users still need and are still entitled to their current access. We recommend quarterly reviews for sensitive systems and annual reviews for standard access, with automated tooling to flag anomalies between cycles.
Is IAM only relevant for large enterprises?
No. IAM scales to organisations of any size. Even a company of 20 people benefits from SSO, MFA, and a clear offboarding process. The tools and approach are sized to fit your organisation.
What is Privileged Access Management (PAM)?
PAM focuses on securing accounts with elevated permissions such as administrators, database owners, service accounts, and other users whose access could cause significant damage if compromised. It provides controls that go beyond standard IAM.
Why are privileged accounts such a high-value target?
Privileged accounts can modify systems, access sensitive data, and disable security controls. Attackers who gain control of a privileged account can move freely across your environment with minimal friction, making them the most valuable credential to compromise.
What types of accounts does PAM cover?
PAM covers administrator accounts, root accounts, service accounts, application accounts with elevated permissions, shared credentials, and emergency break glass accounts used for crisis situations.
What controls does a PAM solution enforce?
Core PAM controls include password vaulting which stores credentials securely and rotates them automatically, session recording, just in time access that grants elevated permissions only for the duration of a specific task, and approval based workflows for sensitive actions.
Will PAM slow down our IT administrators?
Modern PAM solutions are designed to minimise friction for legitimate users while adding meaningful barriers for attackers. In practice, most administrators find that structured access workflows and reduced credential sprawl make their work cleaner rather than harder.
Can PAM integrate with our existing IAM platform?
Yes. PAM and IAM are complementary. IAM governs standard user access while PAM adds a specialist control layer for high risk accounts. We implement PAM solutions that integrate with SailPoint, Okta, Entra ID, and other platforms you may already use.
Do smaller organisations need PAM?
Yes. Any organisation with critical systems, cloud infrastructure, or admin accounts needs some form of privileged access control. We size and scope PAM implementations to match your environment and risk level.
