Are Stolen Credentials Your Biggest Risk?

Over 80% of breaches involve compromised credentials. If your identity controls are weak, your perimeter security is irrelevant.

  • 01
    No Multi-Factor Authentication Users log in with just a password. One successful phishing email gives an attacker full access to your email, files, and internal systems.
  • 02
    Over-Privileged Accounts Users have access to far more than they need. When an account is compromised, the attacker inherits all that excess access, including sensitive data and admin tools.
  • 03
    No Conditional Access There are no policies restricting access based on device, location, or risk level. A compromised account can log in from anywhere on any device.
  • 04
    Dormant Accounts Former employees, old service accounts, and inactive users still have active credentials. Each one is a potential entry point that nobody is monitoring.
  • 05
    No Privileged Access Management Admin accounts use permanent standing privileges with no just-in-time access, no session recording, and no approval workflows. A compromised admin account is game over.
  • 06
    Password-Only Authentication Your organization relies on passwords that are reused, weak, or already exposed in breaches. Without modern authentication, your identity layer is your weakest link.

We implement zero trust identity controls that protect your organization from credential-based attacks.

Zero Trust Identity Security for Business

Identity is the new security perimeter. With employees working from anywhere, data living in the cloud, and attackers targeting credentials as their primary attack vector, controlling who can access what, and under what conditions, is the foundation of modern cybersecurity. At BALANCED+, we design and implement IAM programs that protect your organization from credential-based attacks.

Multi-Factor Authentication

MFA is the single most effective security control you can deploy. We implement MFA across your entire organization, Microsoft 365, VPN, cloud platforms, and line-of-business applications. We use phishing-resistant methods including hardware keys, authenticator apps, and passwordless authentication to ensure MFA cannot be bypassed by sophisticated social engineering attacks.

Conditional Access

Not all access requests are equal. We implement conditional access policies that evaluate risk signals, device compliance, location, network, sign-in risk, before granting access. A user logging in from a managed device at your office gets seamless access. The same credentials used from an unmanaged device in an unusual location trigger additional verification or are blocked entirely.

Privileged Access Management

Admin accounts are the highest-value targets for attackers. We implement privileged access management (PAM) with just-in-time elevation, approval workflows, session recording, and automatic privilege expiration. No admin has permanent standing access, they request elevated privileges for specific tasks, which are approved, time-limited, and fully audited.

Identity Governance

We establish identity lifecycle management, from onboarding to role changes to offboarding. Regular access reviews ensure permissions stay aligned with job functions. Automated provisioning and deprovisioning eliminate the manual errors that create security gaps. Every access decision is logged, auditable, and tied to a business justification.

What's Included

Authentication & MFA

Organization-wide MFA deployment with phishing-resistant methods. Passwordless authentication setup. Single sign-on (SSO) for cloud and on-premises applications. Self-service password reset configuration.

Access Control & PAM

Conditional access policies based on device, location, and risk. Just-in-time privileged access with approval workflows. Session recording for admin activities. Automatic privilege expiration.

Identity Governance

Automated provisioning and deprovisioning. Regular access reviews and certification campaigns. Role-based access control design. Dormant account detection and cleanup. Compliance reporting.

After a phishing incident exposed several employee passwords, we brought in BALANCED+ to overhaul our identity security. They deployed MFA across the organization in two weeks, implemented conditional access, and cleaned up 40 dormant accounts. The transformation was remarkable.
