Securing and simplifying identity and access management across environments.<\/h2>\n

Controlling who has access to what \u2014 and when \u2014 is one of the most critical security challenges facing organisations today. As hybrid work, cloud adoption, and regulatory pressure converge, a robust Identity and Access Management (IAM) programme is no longer optional: it is the foundation of a defensible security posture.<\/p>\n

At e-Xpert Solutions, IAM is one of our core areas of expertise. Since 2001, our Geneva-based engineers have designed, implemented, and operated IAM frameworks for organisations across Switzerland \u2014 from financial institutions and healthcare providers to industrial groups and sensitive public entities. We don’t just deploy tools: we architect identity strategies that are tailored to your environment, your risk profile, and your compliance obligations.<\/p>\n

Privileged Access Management (PAM)<\/h3>\n

Privileged accounts are among the most targeted assets in any organisation. Our engineers implement and operate PAM solutions that eliminate standing privileges, enforce just-in-time access, automate password rotation, and provide full session recording and monitoring. We are CyberArk-certified and have delivered PAM projects across the Swiss financial, healthcare, and industrial sectors \u2014 including environments subject to FINMA, nLPD, and ISO 27001 requirements.<\/p>\n

Identity Governance & Administration (IGA)<\/h3>\n

Without visibility into who has access to what, access control is impossible to enforce. Our IGA practice helps organisations map and govern entitlements across all systems and applications \u2014 automating access reviews, enforcing segregation of duties (SoD), and ensuring that joiners, movers, and leavers are handled with precision. We work with SailPoint and Microsoft Entra ID to deliver IGA programmes that are both technically robust and operationally sustainable.<\/p>\n

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) & Single Sign-On (SSO)<\/h3>\n

Authentication is the first line of defence \u2014 and the most frequently bypassed. Our engineers deploy MFA and SSO solutions that dramatically reduce credential-based attack risk while improving the user experience. We support all major authentication protocols (SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0, OIDC) and integrate with your existing identity providers, directories, and applications. We work with RSA, Microsoft, and Silverfort to deliver authentication solutions suited to hybrid and cloud-first environments.<\/p>\n

Access Lifecycle Management<\/h3>\n

Orphaned accounts and excessive privileges are the direct result of poorly managed access lifecycles. We automate the joiner, mover, and leaver process \u2014 connecting HR systems, active directories, and business applications to ensure that access is granted promptly, updated correctly, and revoked immediately when no longer needed. Our implementations reduce the administrative burden on IT teams while significantly improving the organisation’s security posture.<\/p>\n

Application-to-Application Password Management (AAPM)<\/h3>\n

Hardcoded credentials in scripts, configuration files, and automation workflows represent a critical and often overlooked attack vector. Our engineers implement AAPM solutions using CyberArk’s secrets management capabilities to eliminate hardcoded passwords, rotate service account credentials automatically, and vault application secrets \u2014 closing one of the most common paths to lateral movement in enterprise environments.<\/p>\n

Digital Identity & Qualified Electronic Signature<\/h3>\n

Identity is not limited to user access: it extends to digital trust, authentication at scale, and legally binding electronic signatures. We work with Altipeak to deploy digital identity and qualified electronic signature solutions that meet Swiss regulatory requirements \u2014 enabling secure, legally recognised digital interactions for both internal processes and client-facing use cases.<\/p>\n

Why e-Xpert Solutions for IAM?<\/h2>\n

Our IAM practice is built on more than two decades of field experience in Switzerland. What sets us apart is not the tools we use \u2014 it is the depth of our engineers’ expertise in applying them.<\/p>\n

Our team includes certified specialists across CyberArk, SailPoint, Microsoft Entra ID, RSA, Silverfort, Keyfactor, and Altipeak. We have contributed to the cybersecurity community through publications in MITRE ATT&CK and SIGMA, and through CVE disclosures for vendors including Microsoft, F5, and Abacus \u2014 a track record that reflects the offensive and defensive depth our engineers bring to every engagement.<\/p>\n

We operate from our offices in Geneva (Plan-les-Ouates) and Lausanne, serving organisations across French-speaking Switzerland and beyond. As part of Swiss Expert Group, we collaborate with eb-Qual and One Step Beyond to deliver IAM programmes that span network infrastructure, cloud environments, and Microsoft-native identity ecosystems.<\/p>\n

Our work is governed by strict quality and assurance standards: our Security Operations Center is certified ISO 27001<\/strong> and covered by an ISAE 3000<\/strong> report issued by a Big4 firm \u2014 giving our clients the independent assurance that our processes meet the highest professional standards.<\/p>\n

Frequently Asked Questions \u2013 IAM in Switzerland<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_accordion _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Q : What is Identity and Access Management (IAM)?” open=”on” open_toggle_text_color=”#F15D22″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” body_font_size=”1.1em” body_line_height=”1.4em” global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_font_size=”1.2em” toggle_line_height=”1.4em”]<\/p>\n

Identity and Access Management (IAM) is the set of practices, processes, and technologies used to ensure that the right individuals have the right access to the right resources at the right times \u2014 and that unauthorised access is prevented. It covers areas including Privileged Access Management (PAM), Identity Governance and Administration (IGA), Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), Single Sign-On (SSO), and access lifecycle management.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Q : What is Privileged Access Management (PAM) and why is it critical?” open_toggle_text_color=”#F15D22″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” body_font_size=”1.1em” body_line_height=”1.4em” global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_font_size=”1.2em” toggle_line_height=”1.4em” open=”off”]<\/p>\n

Privileged accounts \u2014 such as system administrators, service accounts, and database administrators \u2014 have elevated access rights that make them highly valuable targets for attackers. PAM solutions protect these accounts by enforcing just-in-time access, automating credential rotation, recording privileged sessions, and eliminating standing privileges. PAM is a key control required under FINMA circulars, ISO 27001, and NIS2 \u2014 and one of the most effective measures to prevent lateral movement following an initial compromise.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Q : What is the difference between PAM and IGA?” open_toggle_text_color=”#F15D22″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” body_font_size=”1.1em” body_line_height=”1.4em” global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_font_size=”1.2em” toggle_line_height=”1.4em” open=”off”]<\/p>\n

PAM (Privileged Access Management) focuses specifically on controlling and monitoring accounts with elevated privileges \u2014 typically IT administrators, service accounts, and emergency access accounts. IGA (Identity Governance and Administration) addresses the broader lifecycle of all user identities and their entitlements across the organisation \u2014 including regular employees, contractors, and application accounts. Both are complementary and together form the foundation of a comprehensive IAM programme.<\/p>\n

e-Xpert Solutions implements and operates IAM solutions from CyberArk (PAM), SailPoint (IGA), Microsoft Entra ID (identity and access), RSA (authentication), Silverfort (agentless MFA and PAM extension), Keyfactor (PKI and machine identity), and Altipeak (digital identity and qualified electronic signature).

We have delivered IAM programmes for organisations subject to FINMA circulars, the Swiss nLPD, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, and NIS2. Our approach starts with a regulatory gap analysis \u2014 mapping your current access controls against the specific requirements that apply to your organisation \u2014 and translates those requirements into a practical, prioritised implementation roadmap. We also support audit preparation and provide the documentation required to demonstrate compliance to internal and external auditors.<\/p>\n
