Tampa, FL — April 11, 2024— Abacode Cybersecurity and Compliance proudly announces its attainment of the Microsoft Identity and Access Management Specialization, marking a significant achievement for the company and its dedication to industry leadership. This recognition from Microsoft highlights Abacode’s commitment to delivering top-tier cybersecurity services and its proficiency in deploying Microsoft Identity workloads with Microsoft Entra ID (ME-ID). Partners who demonstrate deep knowledge, extensive experience, and a history of successful implementations deploying Microsoft Identity workloads with ME-ID may seek the Identity and Access Management specialization (IAM).  

 

“Identity and Access Management is the new perimeter that protects our environment and the data within it,” Abacode Vice President of Operations, Tomas Idinge, said. “Abacode has developed strong capabilities in this space, particularly related to Microsoft’s security stack and its Entra product.  We have certified Engineers and SOC Analysts throughout the service delivery organization and continue to make Identity and Access Management a core component of our ongoing training and development programs.”

Microsoft Solutions Partner - Security - Specialist - Identity and Access Management

Safeguarding sensitive data and functions is non-negotiable in this digital age. Customers face numerous challenges related to identity and access management, including managing identities for employees, external partners, suppliers, distributors, and end consumers or customers. Abacode seamlessly implements Microsoft Identity Solutions as part of its comprehensive cybersecurity approach, establishing the company as a trusted partner for organizations in need of identity and access controls.  

“Identity is the cornerstone of a zero-trust architecture,” Abacode CTO, Jeremy Rasmussen, said. “And especially since COVID and work-from-home, identity-related attacks have been on the rise. We saw them used devastatingly in last year’s casino breaches, and we know that ransomware gangs and nation-state actors will continue to target this threat vector. In fact, identity-related attacks are up 300% in the past year.

So, organizations need a trusted partner such as Abacode to help them enact proactive measures and continuously monitor their environments for identity abuses. Being a recognized Microsoft IAM specialist sets us apart as being able to provide this level of expertise.” 

This achievement builds upon Abacode’s recognition as a Microsoft Designated Solutions Partner for Security and reflects its consistent delivery of quality service within the Microsoft Azure Cloud ecosystem. This recent milestone reaffirms Abacode’s unwavering dedication to excellence and innovation in delivering security solutions to the industry.
