Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a key business enabler and fundamental to conducting business operations in a secure manner. IAM improves business agility by reducing operational costs through process automation and enhancing user experience and productivity through self-service － all while improving your security posture and mitigating risk. Our identity and access management services can help you realize a return on investment and gain value out of your Identity Access Management program through our attribute-based approach:
Bryan Orme, Principal and Partner at GuidePoint Security, presents an overview of our
Identity & Access Management Practice.
Our expert teams can assess your current IAM implementations and guide you to a more robust and healthy program, including roadmap development, architecture reviews and health checks, and workshops covering Privileged Access Management, implementing Zero Trust and Passwordless architectures.
IAM tools require continuous management and optimization. Implementation of Identity Governance, Privileged Access Management, and Access Management solutions requires an in-depth understanding of your environment and knowledge of how your selected platforms and tools can work together to automate and simplify your IAM program.
Staying on top of Identity Access Management is just one of the many moving parts that go into a full security program. GPVUE leverages our expertise across a wide range of cybersecurity disciplines in order to provide an integrated program that is designed to meet the unique security needs of your organization.

Identity Governance & Administration (IGA)
Implementation of an Identity and Access Governance solution includes integration with authoritative sources for user identity information and lifecycle events. In addition, IGA solutions typically include out-of-the-box connectors for many well-known applications and systems such as Active Directory, LDAP, various RDBMS, Mainframe and web applications, as well as role management and policies for enforcing segregation of duties controls.
Privileged Account Management (PAM)
Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions include capabilities such as password vault, privileged activity monitoring, and privileged session management.
Access Management solutions provide authentication and authorization capabilities through single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, and federated single sign-on. The combination of single sign-on’s convenience and multi-factor authentication’s security provides organizations with increased confidence and improved security posture. Single sign-on and multi-factor authentication approach the issues of organizational security and authentication differently. However, they both work together to provide businesses with a more robust and convenient access management solution. The key standards of our security access management solutions include SAML, OAuth, and OpenID Connect for implementing various user access scenarios including those that rely on cloud access management.
We assess your existing cybersecurity posture and architecture, identify gaps and vulnerabilities and eliminate solutions that don’t work well together.
We validate your policies and controls based on regulatory compliance standards and guidelines as well as with adherence to identity and access management best practices. Additionally, we help align your solutions to your in-house capability.
We review, analyze, compare and vet current and emerging technologies, provide recommendations on products and controls that minimize your risk, and integrate and optimize solutions to fit your needs and environment.

The modern business landscape is a competitive one – as a business operating in this landscape, it is imperative that you scale rapidly. However, scaling too quickly – especially in today’s world of hyperconnected devices, applications, and points of access – leaves you with an ecosystem that is unnecessarily complicated and practically bursting at the seams. Rather than force your IT staff to manage countless devices, people, and points of access, you can instead choose a cutting-edge IAM solution that resolves your current security challenges while helping you scale to tackle future ones.
