Keycloak for modern identity and access management (IAM)
Well-designed identity and access management (IAM) is critical to the security of your business data and resources. We use the open source tool Keycloak to solve your IAM challenges in a sustainable way.
Modern identity and access management is essential to ensure that data and access rights in your company remain secure even as the number of employees increases. It is important that the tools you choose fit your technology stack, can scale, and ideally are easy to use.
Our experts have successfully implemented IAM requirements using the Java-based open-source project Keycloak in over 100 successful customer projects – from start-ups and SMEs to listed companies. Keycloak provides single sign-on through modern authentication procedures and practical user management. It easily integrates with many products and services and offers many useful features such as two-factor authentication and password policies. In addition, existing user directories can be integrated and federations can be established with external identity providers and social login providers.
Our experts can also implement identity and access management with Keycloak for your company, solve your challenges sustainably, and enable you to easily scale your systems. As contributors to the open source project, we also actively support Keycloak and ensure that real-world requirements also end up as functionality in the standard product.
