IAM Health Check

Find the IAM risks, control gaps, and roadmap priorities that matter most.

StratIAM's IAM Health Check gives leadership a focused, senior-led view of current identity and access management maturity across lifecycle processes, access controls, privileged access, identity platforms, governance practices, and operational ownership.

It is designed for organizations that need clarity before committing to a major IAM project, platform change, audit response, or long-term consulting engagement.

Why an IAM assessment matters

IAM gaps often develop gradually. Access requests become manual, users retain unnecessary permissions, privileged accounts multiply, and audit evidence becomes harder to produce.

The IAM Health Check helps leaders understand what is working, what is risky, and what should improve first. The goal is not a theoretical maturity score. The goal is a practical identity roadmap your team can act on.

IAM Health Check FAQs

Common questions from leaders evaluating an IAM assessment.

Is this a technical configuration audit?

It includes technical review where relevant, but the focus is broader: identity risk, governance, process maturity, platform usage, operating model, and roadmap priorities.

Do we need to know exactly what is broken first?

No. The assessment is often most valuable when the organization knows IAM is a problem but does not yet have a clear, prioritized view of what to fix first.

Can this support audit preparation?

Yes. The Health Check identifies access control and governance gaps that commonly affect audit readiness, including access reviews, termination controls, privileged access, and evidence production.

Does this require a long-term commitment?

No. The Health Check can stand alone as a focused assessment or become the starting point for advisory, roadmap support, or fractional IAM leadership.
