Orchid Identity & Access Management is a platform designed to provide continuous observability into identity implementations across managed and unmanaged applications. The product addresses the challenge of IAM programs lagging behind business application deployment by automatically discovering applications and surfacing identity configurations without requiring integration work or application refactoring. The platform continuously discovers applications across the environment and assigns initial risk ratings to identify applications deployed outside of IAM programs. It automatically analyzes identity elements including accounts, authentication methods, authorization logic, and infrastructure configurations as coded within each application, eliminating dependency on documentation or application owners. Orchid generates identity context that can be fed into existing IAM, IGA, and ITSM tools to extend governance coverage across the application estate. The platform tracks identity posture changes as infrastructure evolves, enabling teams to monitor access alignment over time. The product includes auto-generated IGA questionnaires that provide information for onboarding applications without requiring manual documentation gathering. It exposes existing identity behavior in legacy applications, allowing organizations to apply modern identity standards without modifying application code. Orchid is designed for IAM teams managing diverse application portfolios where applications are deployed faster than traditional IAM onboarding processes can accommodate, particularly in environments with local, service, and app-native accounts that bypass central controls.
