Identity & Access

Identity strategy.
Controls that work in practice.

MAITS designs, implements and assures identity and access across workforce, privileged, customer, partner and machine environments.

A major MAITS capability

Identity & Access is treated as a connected discipline across business ownership, architecture, security, lifecycle, platforms, applications and evidence.

Identity & Access hierarchy

Find the control area that matches the problem.

Each area has specialist depth and connects to a shared identity strategy, operating model and delivery roadmap.

01

IAM

Identity strategy, architecture, lifecycle, federation, authentication, authorisation, directories, standards and operating model.

Explore IAM
02

Identity Security

Passkeys, FIDO2, MFA, Conditional Access, device assurance, risk, recovery and privileged authentication.

03

IGA

Joiner-mover-leaver, birthright and requestable access, entitlements, workflows, reviews, ownership and SoD.

04

PAM

Privilege discovery, PIM, JIT, JEA, identity separation, strong authentication, vendor access and emergency controls.

05

CIAM

Registration, authentication, federation, recovery, consent, account linking, B2B/B2C identity and customer lifecycle.

Explore CIAM
06

RBAC & ABAC

07

Passkeys

Passkey and FIDO2 strategy, registration, Conditional Access, recovery, pilot design and phased adoption.

Control outcomes

Identity should make access easier to explain and harder to misuse.

LIFECYCLE

Access follows a valid relationship

Authoritative events create, change and remove identity and access with clear ownership.

SECURITY

Trust matches the action

Authentication, device, assurance, privilege and risk controls reflect the sensitivity of the request.

GOVERNANCE

Access decisions remain reviewable

Roles, entitlements, approvals, exceptions and reviews have business meaning and evidence.

INTEGRATION

Applications receive consistent identity

Federation, provisioning, claims, roles and APIs connect applications to the wider control model.

From strategy through operation

Use one capability or shape a complete IAM programme.

MAITS can assess a current estate, lead target architecture, implement controls, assure another supplier or provide fractional identity leadership.

01 / DISCOVER

Understand the decision

Clarify the people, systems, obligations, constraints, ownership and outcome involved.

02 / ASSESS

Establish current state

Review evidence, architecture, controls, risk, capability and delivery readiness.

03 / DESIGN

Define the target

Set principles, architecture, policy, operating ownership and a practical change sequence.

04 / DELIVER

Implement the change

Configure, integrate, automate, migrate and roll out alongside accountable teams.

05 / VALIDATE

Test the outcome

Review behaviour, evidence, exceptions, recovery, readiness and residual risk.

06 / UPLIFT

Transfer capability

Embed knowledge, governance, runbooks, measures and an owned improvement path.

Platform capability

Microsoft expertise within a platform-aware architecture.

MAITS has deep capability across Microsoft Entra, Active Directory, Conditional Access, Identity Governance, PIM, External ID and Microsoft Graph.

We also design around OIDC, OAuth, SAML, SCIM, APIs, directories, SaaS products and custom applications so the identity model is not reduced to one vendor console.
