Enterprises need to protect their valuable business assets, while ensuring that legitimate global users have access to desired resources. Identity, Security and Governance (henceforth ISG) systems in organizations cater to these needs with regards to productivity, governance and compliance. Traditional systems however are not able to keep up with newer challenges like digitalization, IOT, etc.
Newer trends like IOT have resulted in increased number of things/devices to be authenticated and used in organizations. Organizations are embracing digital transformation to gain efficiencies and in the process rethinking their security and integration strategy. They are opening up their systems to partners and customers (multi-fold increase in user population) in their eco-system. Enterprises want to strengthen their authentication security posture without compromising user experience, as they struggle to adopt cloud services while ensuring security for sensitive information.
GS Lab helps organizations adapt to changes in their environment while improving their security and compliance posture. Organizations can now secure their perimeter using strong authentication and authorization techniques while opening it up to their extended ecosystem (includes business partners and customers). Strengthening the user life-cycle management process ensures that organizations have control on “who has access to what and when” by fine-grained entitlement provisioning for individual applications.
Our engagements have spanned the complete stack from building ISG products to offering consulting services for deployment strategy and rollout of these for enterprises. With over a decade of experience in ISG space, GS Lab can be your trusted partner to craft smart identity, security and compliance solutions for your needs.
Service Offerings
Attestation
Attestation enables reviewers to be notified of a report they must review that describes the provisioned access that certain users have.
Attestation enables reviewers to be notified of a report they must review that describes the provisioned access that certain users have. The reviewer can attest to the accuracy of the entitlements by providing a response. This attestation action, along with the response of the reviewer, associated comments, audit view of the data, is tracked and audited to provide a complete trail of accountability.
GS Lab helps build enterprise class governance and attestation products. Also, by leveraging our domain expertise, we have helped develop custom attestation processes for our clients.
Audit & Reporting
Capable of identifying high-risk user access and behaviour profiles, rules and exception based access analytics and reporting.
Audit and Reporting provides organization with an independent assessment relating to the effectiveness of identity management and its policies, procedures and governance activities.
Our deep skills in audit and reporting support organizations with audit tracking and report generation, where audit reports help provide insights into usage patterns and assess compliance to regulatory standards. Also, audit data can be further used to determine outliers using analytics.
Authorization
Without that trust, it is very difficult to enable access to restricted resources – or applications.
Authorization embraces all functional services that relate to the grouping of identities and to the administration of access to information and resources. This ensures that users have appropriate rights to access enterprise managed resources.
At GS Lab we help organizations design and set-up central authorization process using Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), Attribute Based Access Control (ABAC), fine versus coarse grained authorizations, Access Control Lists (ACLs), etc.
Enterprises strive for higher levels of security by strengthening the authentication process. This results in 2FA (2 Factor Authentication) and subsequently MFA (multi-factor authentication). The process involves including additional factors in the authentication process like biometric details (finger print), one time password (OTP), etc.
GS Lab has experience of working across multiple projects involving strong authentication and trust elevation (aka step-up authentication). GS Lab has developed and open sourced its OTP library that supports HOTP & TOTP standards, and works with Google Authenticator mobile application.
Priviledged Identity Management
Secure, control and audit priviledged accounts by providing appropriate access through automated, policy-based workflows.
Privileged Identity management (PIM) is a domain within ISG focused on the special requirements of Privileged IDs (IDs with elevated access) within an enterprise. It involves monitoring and protection of Privileged accounts. Unmanaged privileged accounts can lead to loss or theft of sensitive corporate information, or malware that can compromise the network.
GS Lab works on the entire life-cycle management of privileged IDs, as well as, providing auditing and compliance services around Privileged IDs.
Provisioning
Identity Governance and Administration solutions offer both governance and provisioning to manage user identity and access life cycles across multiple systems.
Organizations today have to manage access rights and accounts of hundreds or thousands of employees and manage role-based access of employees to multiple IT applications. Identity Governance and Administration solutions offer both governance and provisioning to manage user identity and access life cycles across multiple systems.
GS Lab helps organizations with the engineering of these products, developing connectors for on-premise, cloud systems, and skills in related standards like SCIM and OAuth.
xID - GS Lab’s solution for medium businesses that automates rule-based user provisioning.
Security Incident & Event Management
Security Incident and Event Management (SIEM) generates alerts for the real-time security incident and log management and can help in tracking the user suspicious behaviour activities from internal to external or external to internal traffic with the integration of other security products.
GS Lab with its deep expertise in SIEM domain and related products including open source, can help organisations analyse their needs, architect, implement and deploy solutions. GS Lab team also has skills in handling SoC.
Single Sign-On
Alleviates multiple login issues by ensuring that the same sign-in credentials work across multiple applications.
Managing multiple usernames and passwords is cumbersome for end-users and results in increased organizational cost through helpdesk calls and requests for forgotten passwords. Single Sign-On (SSO) alleviates these issues by ensuring that the same sign-in credentials work across multiple applications. SSO helps improve user experience and reduces helpdesk costs.
GS Lab has strong expertise in Federated Single Sign-On, related standards like SAML 2.0, OAuth and technologies like ADFS, etc.
GS Lab has enabled SSO to over 1250+ on-premise/cloud-based applications.
