Applied IAM

IAM services, and the security operations around them

Our IAM services run from privileged access and governance through to penetration testing, 24/7 monitoring and compliance readiness. Ten services, one team, from the first scoping call to day-two operations. Take one on its own, or run several as a single program.

What IAM consulting services cover

IAM consulting services cover the whole life of identity in a business: working out who should have access to what, choosing and licensing the right platform, deploying it, connecting it to the systems you already run, and then operating it day to day.

Most organizations buy those four things from four suppliers, then spend the next two years in the gaps between them. We deliver them as one engagement. PAM implementation brings admin and service accounts under control. IGA implementation automates joiners, movers, leavers and access reviews. IAM integration wires identity into your HR system, your ITSM tool and your cloud. Managed IAM services carries the day-to-day afterwards, if you would rather not. Where your team wants to run it themselves, IAM training and support closes that gap.

On platforms we are hands-on across CyberArk and Keeper, and we work in sectors where the audit trail is the point.

Most engagements start with a scoping call and a short assessment. There is no obligation to buy anything, and no requirement to take the whole program at once.

Four vendorsHandoffs

Privileged access, governance, integration and operations, each bought separately.

  • Privileged access management — admin and service accounts
  • Identity governance — joiners, movers, leavers, access reviews
  • IAM integration services — HR, ITSM and cloud
  • Managed IAM services — or hand it back
One engagementOne roof

The same four, delivered and run by one team.

  • Hands-on across CyberArk EPM, PSM and Privilege Cloud
  • Hands-on across Keeper Secrets Manager and KeeperPAM
  • Engage any one on its own, or run them together
  • One team from the scoping call to day-2 operations

One contract, one team, and nobody to hand the problem to when something breaks at month nine.

Our core practice

Identity services

Our core practice: the full identity and access management lifecycle, from privileged access to day-to-day operations.

Security services

Security services

The security program around your identities: finding the gaps before attackers do, watching for the ones that get through, and giving your auditors the evidence it is under control. This half of the practice exists because the same questions kept arriving with the identity work — who tested this, who is watching it, and what do we show the auditor.

Why Applied IAM

Why one team rather than four suppliers

  • Deploy to day two, under one roof. We design, implement and operate, with no handoffs between an integrator and an outside support desk. There is nobody to hand the problem to at month nine, because it is still us.
  • Vendor-aligned, not vendor-locked. We deliver across CyberArk, Keeper, SailPoint, Saviynt and Entra ID, so the recommendation fits your estate rather than the one product we happen to sell.
  • Certified, hands-on delivery. CyberArk-certified delivery engineers, SailPoint-certified governance specialists, and OSCP-certified testers. The person in the design session is the person who installs it.
  • Right-sized to your team. Own it after handoff, co-manage it with us, or let us run it. The engagement flexes to how your team actually works, and you can change your mind later.
  • Identity first, security around it. Identity is the core practice. The testing, monitoring and compliance work grew around it because identity engagements kept needing it.

FAQs

Questions we get asked

Four things, usually in this order: deciding who should have access to what, choosing and licensing a platform, deploying and connecting it, and operating it afterwards. Some firms do only the advice, some only the software, some only the support. We do all four, which is why there is nobody to hand the problem to at month nine.

No. Every service on this page can be engaged on its own. Most clients start with one — usually privileged access, or a compliance deadline — and add the others when the need is real rather than theoretical.

A scoping call and a short assessment. You get the findings in writing whether or not you go ahead: what we found, what we would do first, and what it would need from your team.

Yes. Penetration testing, a 24/7 managed SOC, compliance readiness, email security and security awareness training. Identity is the core practice and the security operations grew around it, because the same four questions kept arriving with every identity engagement: who tested this, who is watching it, what does the auditor need, and what happens when someone clicks.

Both, and that is deliberate. We license the platform and we deploy it, so there is no gap between the company that sold it and the company that has to make it work.
