Identity.

Helps ensure you keep your organisations biggest asset and the resources they have access to safe

Ensure your staff have access to the right resources at the right time

Enable your employees, contractors, and partners to have secure access to applications and resources without compromising productivity

Digital transformation has boomed, and almost every business relies on technology to stay productive; this has opened up unprecedented vulnerability to networks.

One fact will remain: All identities can be privileged under specific conditions, and as a result, Identity security has become the new security battleground for Australian businesses.

Validating business application users and ensuring they can access only what they need is a foundation of enterprise protection. The importance of enforcing access on a "need to know" basis becomes increasingly important as networks become more accessible via remote access methods.

Context or access is the big differentiator with our offering. AI works to separate a friendly request and what is a threat, then grants only what is needed just in time.

Should an enterprise asset become compromised by an adversary in one area, strong authentication controls make it much harder for them to move laterally around a network. Thereby reducing the likelihood of business-critical systems and data being compromised because potential threats are contained, neutralised and then remediated before any critical damage is done.

Your partner in Network Security

The Missing Link's specialist Identity Security team looks at the following security controls: Multi-factor Authentication, Network Access Control (NAC), Privileged Account Management (PAM), and Identity Access Management and Single Sign-On (IAM & SSO).

Keep staff secure and productive

Know who's accessing your network

Verify the user's identity at the time of login, ensuring the person logging in is who they say they are and not a hacker.

Added security

Remove the risk of only using passwords for your most sensitive systems.

Automate processes

Automate onboarding and off-boarding user identities, save time, and empower HR to provide role-based system access to staff.

Device management

Get visibility of the devices coming on and off the network, implement policies, quarantining and isolation techniques to manage devices.

Be compliant

Meet compliance requirements such as PCI DSS, ISO2700:1, SOC compliance, APRA, ISM.

Power of AI

Access is granted just in time, so your workforce can get secure access from anywhere, when they require it.

Perfect Partner Experience

The new platform is continually kept up to date with categorisation and profiling of new threats and classification of existing traffic. Being able to focus on what is actually happening rather than reacting to close a new threat has saved a lot of time. Being able to see where our compliance was not 100%, we were able to act early and educate our people on the dangers and implications of not following our policies. This has helped us pro-actively understand patterns and educate our staff about the risks of the Internet before we have a serious incident.

FAQs

  • What is identity security?

    Identity security focuses on controlling who can access systems, applications and data within your organisation.

    It ensures users are authenticated, authorised and monitored based on their role and risk level.

    The Missing Link delivers identity security solutions, including multi-factor authentication, privileged access management and identity governance to reduce the risk of credential compromise and lateral movement.

  • What is the difference between IAM and PAM?

    Identity and Access Management (IAM) controls user identities and their access to applications and systems.

    Privileged Access Management (PAM) specifically protects high-level accounts with elevated permissions that can access critical infrastructure.

    The Missing Link implements both IAM and PAM solutions to enforce least-privilege access and reduce the risk of insider or external misuse.

  • Why is identity considered the new security perimeter?

    As organisations adopt cloud platforms and remote work, traditional network perimeters have weakened.

    Identity has become the primary control point for securing access to systems and data.

    The Missing Link designs identity-first security architectures that verify users continuously and grant access only when appropriate.

  • How does identity security reduce cyber risk?

    Strong identity controls prevent unauthorised access, limit privilege escalation and reduce lateral movement within networks.

    Multi-factor authentication, just-in-time access and behavioural monitoring help contain threats before they spread.

    The Missing Link integrates identity security into broader cyber strategies to strengthen resilience and compliance posture.

  • How does identity security support compliance requirements?

    Identity controls are critical for meeting compliance obligations such as ISO 27001, Essential Eight, PCI DSS, APRA CPS 234, and ISM.

    Access governance, audit visibility, and role-based controls demonstrate accountability and regulatory alignment.

    The Missing Link helps organisations implement identity frameworks that align with Australian regulatory expectations.
