Case Study: Government Contractor achieves higher-trust identity assurance and audit compliance with Axiad Cloud

Higher trust identity assurance delivered for government contractor with Axiad Cloud

Government Contractor faced annual government audits, a recent acquisition, and a C‑level directive to move away from a patchwork of identity solutions (OKTA, cloud PKI, on‑prem authentication servers, CMS, HSM, and MS CA). To achieve higher trust identity assurance and simplify operations they engaged Axiad and adopted the Axiad Cloud service.

Axiad consolidated and replaced the legacy systems with Axiad Cloud, deploying FIPS 140‑2 Level 2 tokens or smart cards for privileged users, and smart card, USB token, mobile push, or OTP options for non‑privileged users, with MFA to cloud apps via AD FS and transaction authentication for DoD and partner communications. As a result Axiad helped the Government Contractor pass audits, consolidate operations, reduce costs, and free IT to focus on critical tasks.
