Companies today have to securely manage a constantly growing number of identities and access rights. New technologies, regulatory requirements and the increasing use of AI are significantly increasing complexity. Without transparent processes and clear governance, security risks, compliance violations and operational inefficiencies arise.
Why a modern IAM is essential
Our services in the area of Identity & Access Management
Use Cases
Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A)
Company takeovers and spin-offs place special demands on identity and authorisation management. Different systems, role models and authorisations need to be consolidated quickly or separated cleanly - without security or compliance risks.
- Consolidation of identities and authorisations after acquisitions
- Secure separation of access rights during carve-outs
- Identification and deactivation of orphaned accounts
- Securing compliance during the transition
Customer experience in digital business
Digital platforms and applications are key touchpoints with customers. At the same time, complex security mechanisms often lead to media breaches and cancellations in the registration process. A modern CIAM combines security, data protection and user-friendliness.
- Smooth registration and login across all channels
- Reduction of cancellation rates during login and registration
- GDPR-compliant consent and data protection management
- Foundation for personalised digital services
Scaling without an in-house IAM team
Growth, new regulatory requirements and increasing security risks are increasing the pressure on internal IT teams. Managed IAM and PAM services enable rapid scaling without the need to build up in-house resources or specialised expertise.
- Operation of IAM and PAM solutions by experts
- Relief for internal IT and security teams
- Fast adaptation to growth and new requirements
- Continuous compliance and security monitoring

IAM for Agentic AI and Non-Human Identities
Rise of AI Agents and Non-Human Identities
The digital transformation is leading to a new reality: Non-human identities such as service accounts, bots and autonomous AI agents are increasingly taking on business-critical tasks. These digital actors require access to sensitive data and systems, but often remain outside of traditional security and governance models. This creates considerable risks for data protection, compliance and the integrity of your company processes.
For companies, this means that a modern IAM must not only manage human users, but also integrate machine identities into a clear governance structure. This includes guidelines for the assignment of authorisations, the monitoring of activities and compliance with regulatory requirements. This is the only way to avoid risks such as uncontrolled access, data misuse or a lack of traceability and at the same time securely utilise the opportunities offered by AI.
