GLESEC Identity and Access Management (IAM) Services is a managed security offering that combines Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and Privileged Access Management (PAM) to protect organizations against identity and access-based threats such as privilege misuse, account takeover, and insider threats. The service addresses weaknesses in traditional password-based authentication by replacing passwords with managed MFA and enforcing tight access controls through PAM. It is designed to integrate with existing or new systems via rapid onboarding and managed integration. MFA Component: - Replaces passwords with a managed authentication solution - Supports multiple user-preferred authentication methods - Scales on demand to any number of users - Fully managed service with rapid system integration PAM Component: - Automatically detects and onboards credentials and secrets - Automates password policies and rotation - Enforces security policies on endpoints - Detects malicious and suspicious user behavior - Limits lateral movement and privilege escalation by persistent attackers As a managed service, GLESEC handles configuration, management, and maintenance on behalf of the customer, including incident response based on pre-agreed rules of engagement. The service is positioned as an alternative to building in-house IAM capabilities, intended to reduce total cost of ownership compared to self-managed tooling.
