FROM TECH TALK TO BUSINESS IMPACT: Trust, Transparency and Ethics in Identity — Why System Design Matters More Than Ever

FROM TECH TALK TO BUSINESS IMPACT: Trust, Transparency and Ethics in Identity — Why System Design Matters More Than Ever

Digital identity is more than access—it’s about trust, ethics, and accountability. As IAM systems evolve, it’s critical to design with verified identity at the core. From onboarding to financial aid, every access decision depends on knowing who the user truly is. At Fischer Identity, we build systems that tie identity to authoritative sources, enabling secure, ethical, and resilient identity ecosystems.

Modernizing Identity Management: From Legacy On-Premise to an IAM Future

Modernizing Identity Management: From Legacy On-Premise to an IAM Future

Adopting cloud-based ERP and CRM platforms without embedding IAM and IGA creates security, compliance, and efficiency gaps. Making them foundational ensures secure, compliant, and efficient identity management across hybrid environments.
Federated Login: Empowering Collaboration, Mitigating Risk

Federated Login: Empowering Collaboration, Mitigating Risk

Federated Login empowers collaboration by letting users access external systems with their home credentials—streamlining research and reducing IT overhead. But with that trust comes risk. Without strong IAM foundations, institutions face compliance gaps and data exposure. In our latest blog, we share what CISOs should require to balance collaboration with security and how Fischer Identity helps organizations build resilient IAM programs that make federation safer and scalable.
Building a Strong Foundation for IAM: Why Executive Sponsorship, Project Management, and Stakeholder Identification Matter

Building a Strong Foundation for IAM: Why Executive Sponsorship, Project Management, and Stakeholder Identification Matter

Launching or maturing an IAM program isn’t just a technology project; it’s a business transformation. Success starts with a strong foundation: an Executive Sponsor to champion the effort, a Project Manager to coordinate execution, and engaged stakeholders to ensure adoption. By focusing on leadership, structure, and alignment first, organizations can turn fragmented initiatives into a cohesive, sustainable IAM program that reduces risk, builds trust, and supports long-term goals.
Navigating NIST SP 800-63-4: How Fischer Identity Simplifies Compliance with the New Digital Identity Standard

Navigating NIST SP 800-63-4: How Fischer Identity Simplifies Compliance with the New Digital Identity Standard

When NIST published Special Publication 800-63-4 in August 2025, it raised the bar for digital identity—clarifying assurance levels and emphasizing continuous, risk-based evaluation. For many organizations, the update signals major change. For Fischer Identity customers, it confirms what’s already in place: these requirements have been built into Fischer’s unified IAM and IGA platform for years.
Continuous Identity Isn’t a Buzzword. It’s the Only Way Governance Keeps Up.

Continuous Identity Isn’t a Buzzword. It’s the Only Way Governance Keeps Up.

Most organizations still govern identity using periodic reviews, nightly feeds, and manual exceptions. That approach breaks in modern environments where roles change constantly and access risk evolves in real time. Continuous Identity is not about faster data ingestion. It is about continuously computing identity state, enforcing policy-driven outcomes, and producing audit-grade evidence as reality changes.
From Identity to License: Completing the IGA Lifecycle with Policy-Driven Microsoft 365 and Precedence Logic

From Identity to License: Completing the IGA Lifecycle with Policy-Driven Microsoft 365 and Precedence Logic

Identity lifecycle management isn’t complete until Microsoft 365 licensing is aligned to roles, attributes, and policies. Multi-role users, temporal rules, and conflicting entitlements can create costly errors and compliance risks. Fischer Identity uses policy-driven, code-free automation and precedence logic to ensure licenses stay correct, giving higher education and healthcare institutions a clean, scalable, and secure way to manage identities and access.
Right-Sized Identity Management: Why Fischer Identity Is the Smart Choice for Smaller Schools

Right-Sized Identity Management: Why Fischer Identity Is the Smart Choice for Smaller Schools

Fischer Identity delivers enterprise-grade IAM/IGA without custom code or costly consultants, helping universities automate onboarding, enforce policies, and protect data. Every institution deserves a secure, scalable, and modern identity platform that supports students, faculty, and staff from day one.
