IDENTITY & ACCESS MANAGEMENT
IAM for clear identities and secure access
Ensure that only authorized persons with the right devices and appropriate authorization levels can access company resources with modern identity and access management.
FOR SECURE WORKING ENVIRONMENTS
In a hybrid working world, access needs new rules
In the past, most employees were located at the company site and company resources were protected behind a firewall. In today’s hybrid working world, however, access is almost limitless: Employees need secure access to company resources – in the office as well as remotely, on site at the customer’s premises as well as in Workation. And they need this access from a variety of devices.
This is where identity and access management (IAM) comes into play. There is a growing need to control access in such a way that employees can access all necessary company resources and access is protected based on context, while unauthorized persons are denied access.
We not only show you how to manage your employees’ digital identities and access rights in a meaningful way, balancing security and ease of use, but we also have a range of solutions that make access and authentication particularly smart.

Frequently asked questions
IAM modernization should be phased: identity inventory, target architecture, pilot, then controlled wave rollout. Start by optimizing the identity source, defining secure authentication and access scenarios, and evaluating which applications should use the credentials of the identity provider. Then connect selected services to the identity provider, implement conditional access and realize privileged controls. EBF helps companies achieve high security standards while maintaining a strong user experience. The team provides both expertise and technologies such as AuthN by IDEE which can support high-assurance authentication journeys.
Conditional Access controls access to applications and company resources based on defined conditions such as user identity, device compliance, location, risk level, or authentication method. Conditional Access evaluates signals in real time and decides whether access should be allowed by applying SSO, blocked, or require additional verification such as multi-factor authentication (MFA). It is a core component of Zero Trust security models because it helps ensure that only trusted users on compliant devices can access sensitive data and systems.
The fastest controls are phishing-resistant MFA, conditional access, and disabling legacy authentication protocols. Add privileged controls such as just-in-time elevation, admin account separation, and session monitoring for rapid additional risk reduction. EBF implements this control stack in enterprise programs and helps to achieve a high security standard.
After initial IAM implementation, enterprise managed operations typically cover identity governance reviews, access certification cycles, conditional access tuning, privileged access monitoring, and incident response for identity-related events. EBF supports long-term IAM operations.
When selecting an IAM partner, enterprises should evaluate technical expertise, delivery governance, zero-trust integration, and the ability to provide long-term operational support to ensure a secure and scalable IAM strategy over the long term. Important criteria are proven experience with endpoint management and IAM projects, including SSO, MFA, and conditional access implementations, as well as platform expertise across solutions such as Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, and Ping.
