Security Practice

    Enterprise Security, Identity & Threat Management

    Protect your enterprise with defense-in-depth security, modern IAM, and proactive threat modeling.

    Cyber threats don't wait, and neither should your security strategy. We help organizations build resilient security postures through comprehensive assessments, identity and access management, threat modeling, and compliance readiness. From zero trust architecture to incident response, we deliver security that scales with your business.

    Context

    Security is engineering

    Security is not a product you buy, it is an operating discipline you engineer into every layer of the business. We treat identity, access, threat modeling, and monitoring as one connected system, designed against real adversary behavior, not compliance checkboxes.

    Our engagements start with your attack surface and end with a security posture you can defend in front of auditors, regulators, and your board.

    Zero Trust IAM Transformation for Financial Services Firm

    92% risk reduction

    The Challenge

    A mid-market financial services firm with 3,000+ employees had no centralized identity governance. Over 40% of accounts had excessive privileges, service accounts were unmanaged, and a failed SOC 2 audit put their largest client contract at risk.

    Our Solution

    We implemented a zero trust IAM architecture using Microsoft Entra ID with Privileged Identity Management, automated access reviews, and conditional access policies. Parallel workstreams addressed service account remediation, MFA rollout, and SIEM integration for real-time identity threat detection.

    The Result

    Privilege escalation risk reduced by 92%, SOC 2 Type II certification achieved within 6 months, and the security team reduced access review cycles from 3 weeks to 2 days through automated governance workflows.

    Voice of Client

    "Synthis didn't just run a pen test and hand us a report, they redesigned our entire identity architecture and gave us a security posture we can actually defend in front of auditors and the board."
