The platform layer, identity, access and core services, is the foundation the rest of the environment depends on.
Why it matters
If identity and platform are weak, no amount of endpoint effort compensates. This is where least privilege and strong authentication are designed in.
How Conformance helps
- Centralise identity and single sign-on
- Design privileged access with separation and approval
- Apply conditional access as a platform-wide policy
- Plan monitoring and logging into the platform
- Document platform decisions for assessment
How Conformance helps
Conformance validates this strategy from the evidence your organisation already produces, shows your maturity level, and tells you the next step to raise it.
