Scope of the project
Increasing security, compliance and maturity
DKV's primary objectives for the project were to increase security for both employees and contractors, shift from legacy processes to a modern, integrated solution, achieve IAM maturity level 3.5 as requested by their parent company, and ensure compliance with NBB regulations. These goals aimed to enhance the overall security posture of the organization, streamline access rights management, and establish a robust governance framework that supports their business needs and regulatory requirements.
Trusted & Solid Partnerships are our Foundation
We managed to reach the desired maturity level of 3.65, exceeding initial expectations. Compliance with NBB regulations were achieved by adding Privileged Access Management (PAM) and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).
Results
We built a robust RBAC model with comprehensive access review processes and extensive automation. Integration with DKV's ticketing system improved overall efficiency and facilitated smart delegation to business units, enhancing self-service capabilities. Additionally, OPNS assisted in hiring, onboarding, and training new IAM staff, ensuring the sustainability and continuity of the enhanced IAM practices.
