IAM (Identity & Access Management)

Design and implement IAM architecture — SSO, MFA, RBAC, ABAC, federation, and zero-trust — for cloud and hybrid environments.

Talk to an IAM architect

Overview

Most IAM implementations are a mess. Long-lived access keys, shared admin accounts, MFA on some accounts but not others, RBAC that's really just 'admin' and 'everyone else', and a JML (joiner-mover-leaver) process that nobody follows. Auditors hate it, attackers love it, and your security team is too busy to fix it.

CB4UHost's IAM Architecture service designs and implements IAM that's actually secure and usable. We do SSO (Okta, Entra ID, Google Workspace), MFA enforcement, RBAC/ABAC design, federation (SAML, OIDC), and zero-trust architecture. We support AWS IAM, Azure AD/Entra ID, GCP Cloud Identity, and hybrid setups.

We're vendor-neutral on the IAM provider. We'll use your existing IdP (Okta, Entra ID, Google) or recommend one — and we don't resell IAM products, so our recommendations are based on fit, not commissions.

Every engagement ends with a least-privilege IAM design, automated JML process, audit-ready access reviews, and documentation your team can operate.

What's included

IAM assessment

We assess your current IAM — IdP, access patterns, MFA coverage, RBAC structure, JML process.

SSO + MFA implementation

SSO across all apps + MFA enforcement with risk-based conditional access.

RBAC/ABAC design

Role-based access control with attribute-based refinements — least-privilege, no admin sprawl.

Federation setup

SAML/OIDC federation between IdP and cloud providers, apps, and SaaS tools.

JML automation

Joiner-Mover-Leaver process automated — access granted on hire, changed on role move, revoked on termination.

Access reviews + audit

Quarterly access reviews with audit-ready evidence — who has access to what, approved by whom.

How we work

1

Assessment

We assess your current IAM — what's working, what's broken, what's missing.

2

Design

We design the target IAM architecture — IdP, RBAC, federation, JML.

3

Implementation

We implement SSO, MFA, RBAC, federation, and JML automation.

4

Access review

We run the first access review and establish the quarterly cadence.

5

Handover + training

We hand over documentation and train your team on operating the new IAM.

FAQ

Which IdPs do you support?

Okta, Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), Google Workspace/Cloud Identity, Auth0, Ping Identity, Keycloak (open-source). We'll use your existing IdP or recommend one based on your stack.

Can you implement zero-trust?

Yes — we design zero-trust architecture with device posture, identity verification, and least-privilege access. We use BeyondCorp-inspired patterns adapted to your environment.

How do you handle service accounts and machine identities?

We design service account management with short-lived credentials (where possible), secret rotation, and access scoping. For cloud, we use IAM roles + instance profiles/workload identity to eliminate long-lived keys.

Can you help with our joiner-mover-leaver process?

Yes — we automate JML with HR-driven provisioning (Workday, BambooHR, etc.), role-change access updates, and same-day deprovisioning on termination.
