IAM TechRBAC vs ABAC Fit Assessment
A focused 60-minute session working through whether your access model actually reflects how your organisation operates — a scoped, paid way in when you have a specific problem, not an open-ended conversation.
What this actually is
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) grants access based on a user's role — predictable and auditable, and the right default for most of the workforce. Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) grants access dynamically, evaluating attributes of the user, resource, and context — more flexible, but harder to govern if it isn't done properly. Most organisations have picked one by accident rather than design, or bolted rules onto a role model that was never built to carry them.
This is a single, focused 60-minute call. You bring what you have — a role list, entitlement catalogue, or just a description of how access decisions actually get made today — and we work through whether your current model fits, where it's straining, and what a governed hybrid would realistically look like for your organisation. Booked directly, no proposal process first.
What's included
- A 60-minute session, one-to-one with a specialist consultant — not a first-line call handler
- A working review of your current access model against how your business actually operates — not a platform's default assumptions
- A clear read on where role-based birthright access is the right fit, and where attribute-driven exceptions genuinely earn their complexity
- Straight talk on whether this is a role-cleanup problem, a policy-governance problem, or a genuine model redesign
What this isn't
- Not free — this is a paid session, not the self-serve Health Check
- Not an automated scan of your platform — it's a conversation, built on what you already know about your own roles and processes
- Not a substitute for a full role-mining and role-design engagement — that's real delivery work; this is one hour of expert judgment on where you stand
Who this is for
Teams who suspect their access model doesn't really fit the business any more — role sprawl, ad hoc exceptions piling up, or a platform migration forcing the question — and want a specialist's read on it quickly, without first scoping a larger engagement.
