Gestion des identités et des accès
Sécurisez et simplifiez la gestion des identités et des accès dans tous vos environnements.
Controlling who has access to what — and when — 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.
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 — 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.
Our IAM Capabilities :
Privileged Access Management (PAM)
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 — including environments subject to FINMA, nLPD, and ISO 27001 requirements.
Identity Governance & Administration (IGA)
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 — 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.
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) & Single Sign-On (SSO)
Authentication is the first line of defence — 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.
Access Lifecycle Management
Orphaned accounts and excessive privileges are the direct result of poorly managed access lifecycles. We automate the joiner, mover, and leaver process — 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.
Application-to-Application Password Management (AAPM)
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 — closing one of the most common paths to lateral movement in enterprise environments.
Digital Identity & Qualified Electronic Signature
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 — enabling secure, legally recognised digital interactions for both internal processes and client-facing use cases.
Why e-Xpert Solutions for IAM?
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 — it is the depth of our engineers’ expertise in applying them.
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 — a track record that reflects the offensive and defensive depth our engineers bring to every engagement.
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.
Our work is governed by strict quality and assurance standards: our Security Operations Center is certified ISO 27001 and covered by an ISAE 3000 report issued by a Big4 firm — giving our clients the independent assurance that our processes meet the highest professional standards.
Technologies We Work With
We implement and operate IAM solutions using the following platforms — selected based on your environment, your team’s capabilities, and your long-term operational needs:
Our vendor relationships are built on technical depth, not commercial preference. Every recommendation is driven by what is right for your organisation.

Frequently Asked Questions – IAM in Switzerland
Q : What is Identity and Access Management (IAM)?
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 — 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.
Q : What is Privileged Access Management (PAM) and why is it critical?
Privileged accounts — such as system administrators, service accounts, and database administrators — 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 — and one of the most effective measures to prevent lateral movement following an initial compromise.
Q : What is the difference between PAM and IGA?
PAM (Privileged Access Management) focuses specifically on controlling and monitoring accounts with elevated privileges — 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 — including regular employees, contractors, and application accounts. Both are complementary and together form the foundation of a comprehensive IAM programme.
Q : Which IAM platforms does e-Xpert Solutions implement?
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). Our engineers hold certifications across all of these platforms.
Q : How does e-Xpert Solutions approach IAM for regulated Swiss organisations?
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 — mapping your current access controls against the specific requirements that apply to your organisation — 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.
Q : Where is e-Xpert Solutions based?
e-Xpert Solutions is headquartered in Plan-les-Ouates (Geneva) and operates a second office in Lausanne. Founded in 2001, we serve organisations across French-speaking Switzerland and beyond, delivering IAM projects on-site and remotely. As part of Swiss Expert Group, we also have access to teams in Gland, Givisiez, Fribourg, and Kloten (Zurich).
