Case Study: Akima achieves proactive identity security and cuts breach discovery from months to days with One Identity

Akima, LLC, get its military, intelligence and federal civilian agency clients on a more proactive IT security stance

Akima, a federal integrator serving DoD, intelligence and civilian agencies, needed to migrate securely to the cloud while securing and properly delegating user identities across a large, distributed workforce and meeting strict regulatory requirements. To meet these challenges Akima turned to One Identity, deploying its identity and access management offerings—notably identity governance and privileged access management—to modernize identity controls and reduce administrative risk.

One Identity implemented governance, password vaulting, session-controlled access and role/context-based segmentation so administrators only have the permissions needed for their jobs. The result: secured user identities, a smoother cloud transition, tighter control over administrative‑rights creep and a more proactive security posture—most measurably, breach discovery time dropped from months to days or sooner.
