IAM maturity is essential for organizations to protect digital assets and ensure seamless operations. An immature IAM program not only exposes you to cyberthreats and compliance risks but also hinders progress in strengthening security posture, managing audit and risk, and enhancing operational efficiency. Prioritizing IAM maturity is crucial for mitigating security risks and streamlining compliance processes.

Simeio’s Identity Access Management Maturity Advisory Program (IAM MAP) is entirely focused on your people, processes, environment and technologies supporting Identity and Access Management. Through this in-depth one-day workshop, our joint teams will identify gaps and prioritize areas requiring maturity improvement.
The IAM MAP helps prioritize performance improvement strategically and drive IAM maturity, resulting in stronger overall security for employees and customers.
How It Works
Your advisory begins with a one-day knowledge sharing session about the eight levers of IAM maturity, providing strategic risk management context for your business.
Participants are guided through a comprehensive questionnaire. The foundation provided by this session enables you to extract greater value from the assessment and embeds IAM maturity knowledge into the process going forward.
To get the most out of the workshop, we recommend the following stakeholders be involved:
- AD & Cloud Teams
- Architects
- Business Application Owners
- CISO
- Compliance / Internal Audit
- Help Desk
- Human Resources
- IT Networking, Security, Infrastructure & Telecom
Taking Action
Within a week, we produce a summary presentation of our recommendations and provide you with additional materials and tools we think will be helpful.
You’ll also receive an implementation plan which prioritizes the sequence of events, in priority order, at a detailed level. You’ll retain access to the online benchmark so you can remodel the value of your IAM program at any time and as often as you like. Our clients use this as their scorecard and progressively push maturity up by increasing their score across the 8 Levers and 80 Measures.
