Password & Credential Security

Strengthen authentication without slowing users down. We tune MFA, modernize SSO, and fix secrets handling so accounts and service credentials are resilient and easy to use.

Scope

IdP/SSO, MFA coverage, password policy, WebAuthn/Passkeys, PAM, service accounts

Typical duration

2–4 weeks for assessment and plan; 4–8 weeks for phased rollout

Guidance

NIST SP 800-63B, OWASP ASVS, CIS Controls, FIDO2/WebAuthn best practices

What you get

Current-state map of auth flows (SSO, workforce, customer, service-to-service).
Risk-ranked gaps in MFA coverage, password policy, recovery flows, and session management.
Practical policy set: authentication, password/credential lifecycle, break-glass, recovery, and admin access.
Design for passwordless/WebAuthn or phishing-resistant MFA with staged adoption.
Secrets management improvements: vault usage, rotation, scoping, and discovery of hard-coded credentials.
Implementation playbook with baseline settings for IdP/SSO, PAM/privileged roles, and monitoring.

Engagement Methodology

01Discover & align goals

Confirm IdP/SSO landscape, user groups, apps, service accounts, and target outcomes (e.g., phishing-resistant MFA, passkeys).

02Inventory & telemetry

Collect policies, factor usage, recovery methods, session settings, and credential stores. Identify shadow credentials and admin sprawl.

03Control design

Draft policies and baseline configs for MFA, WebAuthn/passkeys, step-up, recovery, password policy, and conditional access.

04Secrets & PAM review

Assess vault patterns, key rotation, app-to-app auth, and privileged roles; propose safer scopes, automation, and approvals.

05Rollout & measurement

Plan phased enablement, pilot cohorts, comms and UX guardrails; define metrics (coverage, risk events) and validation checks.

Ready to harden authentication

Share your IdP/SSO stack, MFA factors in use, high-risk apps, and any compliance targets. We’ll propose a staged plan for phishing-resistant auth and safer credential handling.
