Integrity360 expands identity services after CyberIAM deal

Integrity360 has launched an expanded Identity Services practice following its acquisition of identity specialist CyberIAM.

The enlarged unit brings together more than 90 identity specialists in a single global practice, with more than 800 vendor certifications and experience from over 130 deployments. The team is intended to help organisations manage access for human users, machines and AI agents.

The launch comes as identity security becomes a more prominent concern for companies using cloud services, automation and AI tools. As the number of digital identities grows, security teams must manage a broader mix of employees, customers, applications, devices and software agents that need access to systems and data.

That shift has changed how attackers target corporate networks. Rather than breaching infrastructure directly, they increasingly seek to compromise credentials, exploit excessive privileges or abuse weak access controls to move through an organisation.

Brian Martin, Director of Product Management at Integrity360, described identity as a growing entry point for attackers.

"Attackers don't always need to break through the front door anymore. If they can compromise an identity, they can simply log in. That challenge is growing as businesses introduce more applications, machines and AI agents, all of which need the right access and controls," Martin said.

The practice covers Access Management, Privileged Access Management, Identity Governance and Administration, and Customer Identity and Access Management. It will support customers from assessment and strategy through implementation, expansion, optimisation and ongoing support.

Broader scope

Non-human identities are becoming a larger issue for security teams because they can hold extensive privileges while often receiving less scrutiny than employee accounts. That includes machine identities, applications and AI agents that may interact with critical systems in automated workflows.

According to Integrity360, its identity team has more than a decade of services experience. Its specialists work across a range of technologies including Idira, formerly CyberArk, Okta, SailPoint, Ping Identity, BeyondTrust, Microsoft, Saviynt and Strivacity.

Services offered by the unit include current-state assessments, AI identity consultancy, advisory work, implementation projects, technical support and managed identity services. Customers can engage the group for a single service or for a broader identity programme spanning multiple phases.

Martin said the company wanted to address both strategic and operational demands from clients.

"This isn't a capability that exists on paper. We have deep identity expertise and the ability to support customers across the full lifecycle of their identity programme. For some, that means understanding where their biggest risks sit. Others need help implementing technology, recovering from a stalled identity rollout, or running their identity environment over the long term. What matters is giving customers greater control over who and what can access the systems their business depends on," Martin said.

Acquisition link

CyberIAM's integration is central to the new structure. The acquisition adds a specialist identity team to Integrity360's wider security business, which employs about 900 people across 16 regional locations in the UK, Europe, Africa and Canada.

Integrity360's identity specialists will work alongside its broader cyber security teams, including its managed detection and response operation. This includes existing work in identity threat detection and response, with the aim of linking identity controls more closely to wider security monitoring and incident response.

Michael Ribaudo, Chief Executive Officer of CyberIAM, said the combination would widen access to services for customers of both businesses.

"Joining Integrity360 gives us a real opportunity to build on what both businesses already do well for their customers. CyberIAM clients can now access Integrity360's broader security capabilities, while Integrity360 customers gain deeper specialist identity expertise.

"What is particularly exciting is what we can build together. By embedding identity more closely into Integrity360's existing cyber security services, we can create new services that reflect how customers actually need to protect their businesses. Identity doesn't sit on its own, so the way we secure it shouldn't either," Ribaudo said.

The expansion reflects a broader shift in cyber security, with identity becoming a central control point rather than a narrow administrative function. As companies add more cloud applications, automated business processes and AI systems, managing who or what can gain access has become a bigger operational and security challenge.

For service providers, that change has also made identity work more commercially significant, particularly in areas such as privileged access, governance and managed support. The combined team is intended to meet demand from organisations that need help assessing risks, completing delayed rollouts or running identity environments over the longer term.

The aim is to give customers greater control over access to the systems their businesses depend on.
