FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What organisations ask about identity & access management.

What's 'phishing-resistant MFA' and why does it matter?

Standard MFA (SMS, push notifications) is increasingly bypassed by adversary-in-the-middle and MFA-fatigue attacks. Phishing-resistant MFA — FIDO2 keys, Windows Hello, certificate-based — can't be intercepted that way. The ACSC and Microsoft now recommend it as the default for privileged accounts.

Do we really need PAM for a small organisation?

If you have admins with broad access to production systems — yes. PAM separates daily user accounts from privileged sessions, vaults credentials, and records sessions. Even a basic PAM rollout dramatically reduces ransomware blast radius and helps with Essential Eight 'Restrict Administrative Privileges'.

How do you handle joiner/mover/leaver in M365?

Automated via Entra ID lifecycle workflows or HRIS integration (HR-driven provisioning). Joiners get role-based access on day one, leavers lose access on departure day, movers get reviewed against new role. Audit-friendly and removes the manual IT ticket churn.

Can you migrate us from on-prem Active Directory to Entra ID?

Yes — full assessment, identity sync, application migration (Conditional Access for legacy apps), and decommissioning of on-prem when ready. Most engagements end with a hybrid (sync from on-prem) rather than fully cloud-only — the business case for AD decommissioning has to be deliberate.
