Advisory
Strategic identity consulting that builds the roadmap before writing a single line of code — maturity assessments, vendor evaluations, zero trust architecture design, and compliance gap analysis.
Most identity programs fail not because of technology, but because of strategy. TechSquad Advisory engagements start where it matters: understanding your current identity posture, mapping your compliance obligations, and designing an architecture that serves your organization for the next five years — not just the next quarter. Our principal architects have designed identity programs for Fortune 500 healthcare, global banking, hospitality chains, and Ivy League universities. We bring that pattern recognition to every advisory engagement.

Identity Maturity Assessment
Comprehensive evaluation of your identity posture across governance, access management, privileged access, and non-human identity — scored against NIST CSF 2.0 and industry benchmarks.
