Why do you need Identity Security?
Every connection to your organization starts with an identity: an employee, administrator, supplier, application, workload or machine. Identity Security controls who or what can access your systems, what they can do, under which conditions and for how long.
That requires more than authentication alone. Access governance, privileged access, workforce access, machine credentials, endpoint trust and the identity infrastructure itself all influence whether an access decision can be trusted.
ACEN brings preventive controls and detection together across human and non-human identities. We work across commercial and open-source technologies. Architecture, existing investments, risk, operational control, cost and digital sovereignty should determine the right approach. Not a single vendor stack.

How do we offer Identity Security?
Our identity fabric project approach
Map the client’s identity landscape: employees, customers and machine identities. Find the pieces that don’t fit the bigger picture.
Turn each piece into one that fits: business case, priorities and target architecture, built together with the client.
Assemble a solid identity puzzle: SSO, MFA, IGA and PAM working as one fabric, delivered in MVPs.
Put governance around it: processes, recertification, NIS2 and audit, and a managed service to keep it running.
With these partners
Managing all kinds of identities
The same security principles apply across people and machines. But the controls and risks differ. We adapt governance, access, infrastructure and detection to the identity context.
Employees need simple access to business applications with strong authentication and consistent policy. Workforce SSO, MFA, Access Management, IGA and endpoint trust work together to reduce friction and risk.
Developers and automation connect directly to APIs, cloud services and infrastructure. Secrets, certificates, access policy and privileged controls help secure these fast-moving technical identities and workflows.
Administrators need powerful access, but it should be deliberate, limited and observable. PAM, secure remote access, endpoint controls, infrastructure hardening and ITDR protect the most sensitive access paths.
Applications, workloads, service accounts, certificates, APIs and AI agents also authenticate and receive permissions. They require ownership, secure credentials, lifecycle control, resilient infrastructure and threat visibility.
