Identity & access management and IT security form the foundation of every modern, regulated IT landscape. Tightening regulations such as MaRisk, DORA and ISO 27001, hybrid cloud architectures and zero-trust principles turn resilient IAM into a strategic priority. Vetrexa supports you as a vendor-neutral partner – from target architecture through to day-to-day operations.
Overview
Why IAM & Security?
Digitalisation, cloud migration and zero-trust models are reshaping the logic of security. At the same time, MaRisk, BAIT, DORA and ISO 27001 sharpen expectations around evidence, control and auditability. Many organisations struggle with grown entitlement structures, heterogeneous target systems and inefficient recertification. This is exactly where we come in – as an independent consultancy without vendor lock-in, focused on sustainable governance and measurable outcomes.
Our approach covers the full value chain: from IAM strategy, through target architecture, tool selection and implementation, to continuous optimisation in operations. We bring experience from numerous programmes in EMEA, APAC and the US, with a clear industry focus on banking, insurance and industry – where regulation, scale and complexity meet.

FAQ
FAQ
Which IAM tools does Vetrexa use?
We are tool-agnostic and work with SailPoint IdentityIQ, Microsoft Entra ID, CyberArk, One Identity and Microsoft MIM/FIM, depending on the client landscape. As a NEXIS Silver Partner we also use the NEXIS Platform with IVIP for role analytics and governance visualisation.
How does Vetrexa support MaRisk and DORA compliance?
We design supervisory-grade IAM governance models aligned with MaRisk AT 7.2, BAIT and DORA. This includes audit-ready recertification processes, SoD controls, break-glass access and KPI dashboards that stand up to internal audit, external auditors and BaFin.
Can you optimise existing SailPoint deployments?
Yes. We perform health checks, performance analyses and consolidations on existing SailPoint IIQ deployments – covering workflow refactoring, connector optimisation (SAP, AD, ServiceNow) and modernising recertification campaigns and role models.
How long does a typical IAM recertification project take?
A first audit-ready recertification campaign can usually be set up in 3 to 6 months. Full governance programmes with role re-modelling, tool rollout and international scaling typically run between 12 and 24 months, staggered by system and business area.
