Identity has become the new perimeter. As enterprise environments expand across cloud, SaaS, and remote work, traditional network-based security controls no longer provide adequate protection — and attackers have adapted accordingly. The majority of data breaches today involve compromised credentials or misused privileged access. Most organizations accumulate significant identity risk over time: over-provisioned accounts, orphaned access, unmanaged service accounts, weak or absent MFA, and privileged accounts with standing elevated access that represents a breach waiting to happen. Full On Consulting's IAM consulting practice helps organizations design and implement identity and access management programs that control access effectively — from SSO and MFA implementation to privileged access management, identity governance, and zero-trust architecture — built around your specific environment, compliance requirements, and organizational realities.

Our IAM Services
From Identity Assessment to Zero-Trust Architecture
IAM Assessment & Strategy
A comprehensive review of your current identity landscape — directory structure, authentication mechanisms, entitlement sprawl, privileged accounts, and integration points — to identify gaps, quantify risk exposure, and define a prioritized IAM program roadmap aligned to your business risk and compliance requirements.
SSO & MFA Implementation
Design and implementation of Single Sign-On and Multi-Factor Authentication across your application portfolio — including legacy applications, cloud services, SaaS platforms, and administrative consoles — eliminating authentication exceptions that attackers specifically target.
Privileged Access Management
Implementation of PAM controls to eliminate standing privileged access, enforce least-privilege principles, and provide complete audit trails for administrative activity — addressing the highest-value target category for attackers and one of the most commonly deferred elements of IAM programs.
Identity Governance
Design and implementation of identity governance processes — access request workflows, role-based access controls, automated provisioning and deprovisioning, and access certification campaigns — reducing access risk while reducing the manual overhead of managing identity at enterprise scale.
Zero-Trust Architecture
Design and implementation of zero-trust identity principles — continuous authentication, context-aware access controls, device compliance enforcement, and network micro-segmentation — replacing implicit trust with verified, policy-controlled access at every point in your environment.
IAM Compliance Support
IAM controls design and evidence collection to support SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, ISO 27001, and other compliance frameworks — ensuring your identity program satisfies auditor requirements while actually reducing access risk, not just checking compliance boxes.
What Makes Us Different
Why Our IAM Programs Control Access and Actually Stay Controlled
Identity Inventory Before Architecture
We conduct a comprehensive inventory of your identity landscape before recommending any technology — accounts, entitlements, authentication gaps, and privileged access exposure. Understanding what exists is the prerequisite for designing an effective IAM program.
MFA Enforced Everywhere, Including the Exceptions
Most MFA rollouts leave gaps — legacy applications, VPN exceptions, service accounts, administrative consoles. We specifically target the authentication exceptions that other implementations leave exposed, because attackers specifically target those gaps.
PAM Addressed, Not Deferred
Privileged access management is the highest-value target for attackers and the most commonly deferred element of IAM programs. We scope PAM as a core deliverable from engagement initiation — not a phase-three afterthought.
Governance Built to Sustain Itself
Identity governance requiring manual quarterly campaigns has a documented lifecycle: implemented, neglected, abandoned. We design governance processes that automate routine access certification and integrate with your HR system so governance sustains itself without heroic effort.
Featured Case Study
IT Transformation Program: Enterprise-Scale Identity Management Across 18,000 Users
A multi-year enterprise IT transformation program required managing identity at scale — coordinating directory services, access controls, and authentication for 18,000 employees across 90+ global facilities during a period of significant organizational change and M&A activity. The program delivered $40M in documented savings while maintaining security and compliance throughout the transformation.
A separate disaster recovery engagement demonstrated what properly governed access controls look like under pressure — when a data center fire occurred, the security architecture and access controls remained intact and allowed the business to recover without a security incident, preventing an estimated $40M in losses.

Before You Engage
What to Ask an IAM Consulting Firm
Do they conduct an identity inventory before designing architecture?
Effective IAM programs begin with an honest inventory of the current identity landscape — how many accounts exist, what entitlements have accumulated, where privileged access is uncontrolled, and where authentication gaps leave the organization exposed. Ask whether the firm conducts this baseline inventory before making technology recommendations. Firms that jump directly to tool selection often design solutions that don't fit the actual problem.
How do they handle the MFA exceptions?
Most MFA rollouts successfully enforce authentication on the primary corporate applications — then leave gaps in legacy systems, VPN access, service accounts, and administrative consoles. Attackers specifically target those gaps. Ask how the firm identifies and addresses MFA exceptions, and whether they have a methodology for enforcing MFA on legacy applications that don't natively support modern authentication protocols.
Is PAM scoped from the beginning, or deferred to a later phase?
Privileged access management is consistently the most deferred element of IAM programs — it is complex, disruptive, and resisted by technical teams. It is also the highest-value target for attackers; most major breaches exploit privileged credentials. Ask how the firm approaches PAM scoping, whether it is a core deliverable of the engagement from initiation, and what methodology is used to remediate standing privileged access without disrupting operations.
How do they design governance to sustain itself over time?
Identity governance programs that rely on manual quarterly access review campaigns have a predictable lifecycle: implemented with effort, completed the first quarter, deprioritized the second, abandoned by the third. Ask how the firm designs governance processes to be sustainable without heroic effort — specifically, how automated provisioning and deprovisioning integrate with your HR system, and what level of automation is built into access certification.
