Custom Development: Where necessary, design and oversee the development of custom IAM features or extensions.


Security and Compliance

Risk Management: Identify vulnerabilities in IAM systems and implement measures to mitigate risks.

Compliance Alignment: Ensure IAM solutions comply with regulations and standards such as GDPR, SOX, HIPAA, and ISO 27001.

Operational Oversight: Lifecycle Management: Oversee processes for provisioning, deprovisioning, and managing user identities and credentials throughout their lifecycle.

Monitoring and Reporting: Implement tools and dashboards to monitor IAM system performance, generate compliance reports, and detect anomalies or unauthorized access attempts.

Automation: Drive automation in repetitive IAM processes, such as account creation, role assignment, and periodic access reviews.

Collaboration and Stakeholder Engagement: Cross-Functional Collaboration:

Work with IT, cybersecurity, HR, application owners, and business leaders to align IAM strategies with organizational goals.

Training and Awareness: Provide technical guidance and training for IAM operations teams and create awareness programs for end-users.


Continuous Improvement

Incident Response Support: Assist in investigating and responding to security incidents involving identities or access breaches.
