Who can reach what, and how that is moving.

Identity risk, privileged accounts and external sharing under watch — so AI never widens exposure.

What the estate reports about its identities

Critical and high-risk identities

The accounts whose reach would matter most if they were taken, counted and tracked between data points rather than discovered during an incident.

Privileged accounts

Who holds administrative reach across the estate, and whether that number is moving in the direction you intended.

Accounts without MFA

The gap between the policy that says every account has a second factor and the estate that says otherwise.

Stale accounts

Identities nobody has used and nobody has removed — the quietest way an estate grows an attack surface.

Why identity sits underneath the rest

You cannot govern access you have only described.

A count, not an impression

Every identity figure is a number taken at an instant and comparable with the last one. "Privileged accounts: 18, unchanged" is a different statement from "we keep privileged access tight", and only one of them survives an audit.

Reach is what matters, not headcount

An account matters because of what it can open. Identity risk is measured against the catalogue — what the account can actually reach — rather than against the role it was given on paper.

External sharing is an identity question

A document shared out of the tenant has granted someone reach without granting them an account. The register of external domains your data reaches is part of the same picture.

Movement is the signal

One data point says where you are. Two say which way you are going — and an automation can say so the next time the number moves the wrong way.

Prove it. Don’t promise it.
