Zero Trust Identity & Access Modernization for a Global Financial Services Firm

Sysvine led an identity and access overhaul for a multinational financial services firm spanning hybrid on-prem and multi-cloud environments. We replaced fragmented legacy authentication with a unified Zero Trust architecture built on Azure AD and Okta for SSO, RBAC/ABAC enforcement via Open Policy Agent, and centralized secrets management using HashiCorp Vault. Privileged Access Management eliminated standing admin credentials, while Policy as Code via Kyverno enforced access rules consistently across Kubernetes workloads on Azure AKS. Continuous risk scoring, adaptive MFA, and automated de-provisioning tied to HR systems cut manual access-review overhead, with full audit trails satisfying SOC 2 and PCI-DSS requirements. The result: a measurable drop in standing privileged access, faster onboarding cycles, and an identity fabric built to scale across future acquisitions.
