The problem

Organizations struggle with manual provisioning, group sprawl, and unclear ownership, creating inefficiency, excessive access, and compliance gaps

Manual task overload

IT teams waste time on manual provisioning, group updates, and password resets instead of focusing on strategic priorities.

Risky directory changes

Risky or unauthorized changes go unnoticed, leading to privilege creep and increased risk of identity-based attacks.

Access delays and bottlenecks

Manual access management creates user request bottlenecks and floods helpdesk inboxes.

Compliance and audit challenges

Without automated reviews and audit-ready reports, organizations face compliance failures and can’t demonstrate least privilege access.

Use cases

Automate and control directory operations

Automated user & group management

Automate provisioning, deprovisioning, and membership updates across AD, Entra ID, Google Workspace, and LDAP to save IT time and ensure accuracy.

Self-service & delegated management

Enable secure self-service for password resets and access requests. Delegate user and group tasks safely to reduce helpdesk load and delays.

Visibility into directory changes

Gain continuous visibility into AD and Entra ID changes. Detect risky modifications early, investigate suspicious activity, and maintain control.

Access reviews & compliance

Automate regular access reviews and permission tracking. Deliver audit-ready reports to prove compliance and enforce least privilege.

Group lifecycle governance

Automate group creation, updates, and expiration to prevent sprawl and privilege creep while maintaining a clean and compliant directory.

Password policy enforcement

Enforce strong, unique, and compliant passwords. Block weak or compromised credentials and guide users with real-time feedback.
