Reduce Your IAM Attack Surface with a Full Identity Visibility and Intelligence Platform
Identify, quantify, and remediate unknown risks lurking across your IAM silos. Fortify human and machine identities with prioritized action to mitigate high impact vulnerabilities, prevent breaches, and prepare for post-quantum cryptography.
Identity Risk Management, Made Practical
CISOs and security leaders in midsize and large enterprises face ongoing attacks aimed at digital identities and the looming requirement to migrate to post-quantum cryptography. With existing IAM tools operating in silos, they often have no visibility into the extent of their connected human and non-human systems.
Axiad Mesh is an identity visibility and intelligence platform (IVIP) that helps teams detect identity risks, quantify those risks, and then fortify identities against these risks in an automated, scalable way. Mesh detects risks ranging from access permissions associated with long gone employees/projects to dark web compromised passwords to dormant accounts still on the books to machines unable to make a PQC transition.
Identity Risks Impact Every Organization
A 2024 report from the Identity Defined Security Alliance, or IDSA, showed that 22% of businesses see managing digital identities as the number one priority of their security program. In fact, more than half said it was a top three priority, while only 2% failed to put “securing identities” in their top 10 list at all.
Identity Risks Remain Invisible
Most organizations realize their mix of internal, on-prem, SaaS-based and infrastructure-based systems comes with an overwhelming number of identities. Not just the identities of every person, machine, application, service and system being used, but also the state of these identities. Are they over-privileged? Are they continually correlated to official sources of truth? But organizations don’t have visibility into the identities they depend on, let alone the risks they present.
Silos Defy Management and Control
Identity sprawl is a real and pressing danger. In the IDSA report, more than half of the respondents consider “managing identity sprawl” a major focus for 2025 (57%). Yet the siloed controls we rely on don’t help with this sprawl. They don’t take into account external and often highly-privileged SaaS solutions. They don’t provide common communication and control to harmonize and simplify risk management. They create small picture views that prevent big picture solutions.
Risks Span Human and Non-Human Identities
Digital transformation means every interaction is a mix of human and machine identities. Machines and workloads now outnumber human identities by as much as 100:1, making any solution blind to machines a non-starter. Both human and non-human identities are sometimes persistent and sometimes ephemeral, making continuous monitoring a necessity. And the transition to PQC is coming fast.
Risks Can’t Be Translated into Actions
Addressing these challenges requires not just new solutions, but new approaches. Successful identity fabrics need remediation and mitigation steps to be shared across teams. Identity fabrics need to communicate real risk insight in the form of the blast radius that may come from compromise, and the collateral impacts that may attend repairs and modifications.
The Key Benefits of Axiad Identity Mesh
Identify Your Identity Risks
Most organizations simply don’t know what identity risks they face. You can't fix what you can't see. Silos of IAM controls are at odds with each other. All these controls need a connective mesh that provides:
- Discovery, visibility, and observability of the identities being used throughout the enterprise
- Identification of internal and external risk sources, from on-prem or adjacent or SaaS systems
- Alignment of risk to teams, or locations, or business units or by human and non-human types
Quantify Identity Risks
Knowing the state of your identities and identity risks is only the first step. You must be able to prioritize to take action. Axiad Mesh reveals:
- Which identities or groups pose the greatest risk to the organization? What is their risk score? Why are they high risk?
- What is the potential blast radius of a compromised identity?
- What is the financial cost to the business to address – or not address – this risk?
Fortify Identities Against Risk
Identified and quantified risks should be remediated. To do this, more insight and control is needed, fast. An identity fabric with unified identity visibility and intelligence helps security and operations teams:
- Prevent identity-dependent attacks with improved posture, using known frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK
- Delegate and prioritize identity risk mitigation across teams
- Reduce the identity attack surface and accelerate incident response
- Prepare for broad implementation of post-quantum cryptography
Integrations
Connectors
Axiad Mesh integrates seamlessly with your existing tools.
Solutions Based on Each Organization's Risk Appetite
Identity Correlation & Risk Mitigation
Axiad Mesh provides identity correlation across fragmented systems, providing a unified view of an organization’s identities. It merges manually and automatically detected identities and assigns risk scores to highlight inconsistencies and vulnerabilities. Analytics and trend tracking unify signals and predict risk states
Automate Identity Hygiene & Remediation
Axiad Mesh improves identity hygiene by automatically detecting and flagging issues like excessive permissions, weak or non-deployed MFA, or inconsistent statuses. It supports automated workflows to remediate these risks without manual intervention, with delegation to management platforms for automatic remediation if needed. AIM also integrates with native remediation capabilities delivered by Axiad Conductor.

The Definitive Guide to IdRM
Almost every organization has a fast-growing, rapidly morphing, and (all too often) poorly defended attack surface: its identity ecosystem. Learn how to map it and how to defend it.

Securing the Identity Attack Surface
According to a new report from Software Analysts Cyber Research, massive gaps in identity security exist everywhere. The report says of Axiad, “the Axiad Mesh solution has emerged as a key player, bridging the gap between Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) and Identity Threat Detection & Response (ITDR). At the core of Axiad’s competitive differentiation is its applied risk quantification and scoring engine, which provides a comprehensive evaluation of identity-related threats.
