01 · Assess maturity
Your current identity, governance, and privileged access tooling, processes, and ownership are benchmarked against a reference maturity model
Identity & Access
Identity Migration & Maturity Assessment
Benchmark identity maturity, then modernize legacy SSO, privileged access, and directory platforms.
- 3 to 6 weeks Maturity assessment engagement window
- 3 migration paths Legacy SSO, PAM and directory services, each with its own methodology
- AI-assisted Identity risk and gap analysis uses automated pattern detection via SIEM/IdP log ingestion to identify stale accounts and bypasses across your estate
The challenge
Most organizations do not know how mature their identity estate is until an audit or incident forces the question. Meanwhile, legacy SSO, privileged access, and directory platforms underneath that estate keep aging until migration becomes urgent instead of planned.
Approach
How the engagement works
02 · Migrate what needs replacing
Legacy SSO, privileged access vaults, or directory services are migrated to modern platforms with phased cutover to avoid disruption
03 · Decommission and hand over
The legacy platform is decommissioned after sign-off, with knowledge transfer, runbooks, administrator training, and operational documentation handed over to your team
How it works
From a maturity score to a modernized identity estate
What’s included
- Discovery and maturity scoring across IAM, IGA and PAM tooling
- Identity risk and gap analysis, orphaned accounts, segregation of duties, MFA coverage
- Prioritized, phased remediation roadmap with effort bands
- Legacy SSO and access management migration, including SAML/OIDC application rewiring and legacy authentication (Kerberos/NTLM) proxying or modernization.
- PAM platform migration with credential vaulting, mandatory MFA enforcement, session recording, and Just-In-Time (JIT) policy migration
- Platform operation including upgrades and patching
- Directory services modernization, including legacy Active Directory trust consolidation, schema cleanup, and hybrid-join baselining
Outcomes
- A costed, evidence-based view of identity maturity, not a guess
- Legacy platforms migrated without a coverage gap during cutover
- A target operating model and RACI your team can actually run
- A documented identity baseline that satisfies DPDP Act 'reasonable security safeguard' requirements and RBI IT Governance mandates
- Clear architectural delineation between the Identity/Access domain and network-level Security Service Edge (SSE) frameworks to prevent scope creep during implementation
Why Gruve
Most migrations happen only after something forces the issue
Gruve starts with the maturity assessment that tells you when to move
A migration without a maturity assessment risks moving to a new platform without fixing the gaps the old one had. This engagement benchmarks your identity estate first, then carries that roadmap directly into whichever migration matters most: legacy SSO, privileged access, or directory services.
Gruve Differentiator
Gruve Identity Migration & Maturity Assessment
Reactive Migration
Business Requirements
Organizations that want an evidence-based view before migrating anything
Organizations migrating only after a vendor end-of-life notice or incident
Service Model
Vendor-neutral assessment across your entire identity estate
Migration scoped around whichever platform is forcing the decision
Technology & Expertise
Identity risk and gap analysis, ensuring toxic entitlements and orphaned accounts are purged rather than “lifted and shifted” to the new platform
Gaps discovered mid-migration, extending timelines
Approach & Capabilities
Maturity scored against a reference domain model
No consistent benchmark, migration decisions made ad hoc
Governance & Assurance
Phased migration with parallel-run and legacy decommissioning
Cutover risk managed informally, coverage gaps common
Identity & Access
