Identity & Access Management
Who has access to what in your organization? If you cannot answer that question with confidence, your business is at risk. At Nivando, we manage user identities, access rights and authentication across your entire environment so the right people have access to the right resources — and nobody else does.
Identity and access issues are behind a significant portion of all security incidents. Accounts that are never deactivated when employees leave, passwords that are shared or never changed, users with far more access than their role requires and no multi-factor authentication on critical systems — these are the conditions that attackers look for and exploit regularly.
Identity and access management covers the processes and controls that govern how users are created, authenticated, authorized and deactivated across Our IT environment. This includes user account lifecycle management, role-based access control, multi-factor authentication, password policies and the ongoing review of who has access to what across all systems and applications.
At Nivando, we manage identity and access as a day-to-day operational service. New users are onboarded correctly from day one, leavers are deactivated immediately and access rights are reviewed regularly to ensure they reflect current roles and responsibilities. You always have a clear and accurate picture of who has access to your systems.
How Your Identity & Access Management Works
We begin with a full audit of your current user accounts, access rights and authentication settings across all systems. This immediately identifies orphaned accounts, over-privileged users, missing multi-factor authentication and access rights that no longer reflect current roles. Every finding is documented and addressed as part of the onboarding process.
We then establish a structured identity lifecycle process. New users are created with the correct access rights from the start based on their role. Access changes are processed promptly when employees change roles. When someone leaves, their accounts are deactivated immediately across all systems — not just one. Multi-factor authentication is enabled on all critical systems and applications.
On an ongoing basis, we conduct regular access reviews to verify that every user’s access rights still match their current role and responsibilities. Unused accounts are identified and removed. Password policies are enforced consistently. Every change to user access is logged and documented, giving you a complete audit trail of your identity environment at all times.
Why It Matters
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our identity and access management service.
1. What systems does your identity management cover?
We manage identities and access rights across all systems in your environment including operating systems, business applications, cloud platforms, email and collaboration tools and any other system that requires user authentication. We ensure consistent identity management regardless of where systems are hosted.
2. How quickly are accounts deactivated when someone leaves?
Leaver deactivation is treated as a high-priority task. When we are notified that someone has left, their accounts are deactivated immediately across all managed systems — typically within the same business day. We do not wait for scheduled reviews to remove access from departed employees.
3. How do you handle access rights when employees change roles?
Role changes trigger an access review for the affected user. We ensure new access rights appropriate to the new role are granted and any access that is no longer required is removed. This prevents the accumulation of excessive access rights over time.
4. Do you manage multi-factor authentication?
Yes. We deploy, configure and manage multi-factor authentication across all critical systems and applications. We ensure MFA policies are consistently applied and that users are supported through the enrollment process without disruption to their work.
5. How often are access rights reviewed?
We conduct formal access reviews on a regular schedule — typically every three to six months depending on your compliance requirements. In addition, access is reviewed immediately whenever a user changes role or leaves the organization. Every review is documented to support audit requirements.
