User access reviews are a chore that no one has the time for and drains team’s resources, yet it's crucial for compliance and minimizing data breaches. But here's the good news: you can now delegate it.

Detexian is your trusted guardian of corporate data across a spectrum of critical SaaS tools. When employees and consultants depart, it automatically identifies open data access points, closes them, revokes access, and provides detailed reports – all without the need for manual intervention. 

With Detexian, you also have real-time visibility of who’s using apps outside of your company’s policies.

The real benefit is the independent, real-time proof of your company’s user access management practices.The next time you need to address access issues the C-Suite, department heads, or customers conducting security due diligence, you can bring data to speak authoritatively.

I was looking to relocate to Australia for career advancement reasons and IAG AU offered me a role in Melbourne Australia as my transition project for IAG NZ was finishing which I accepted. This role was responsible for architecture, guidance and design of a number of security domains, I am the specialist cyber security architect for Microsoft technologies including Office 365 and Azure and a consulting security architect for the Identity Management and Cloud domains. I was also instrumental in developing the IAG Ventures Investment committee’s cyber due diligence process to assess early stage start-ups security postures.

IAG NZ hired me to design and technically lead their merger of the recently acquired Lumley NZ business unit from Wesfarmers Insurance Australia. This role was responsible for data, identity (both Active Directory and Application), exchange, network and data centre migration and was subject to very tight budget and commercial timelines. I designed a solution that was implemented trans-Tasman to divest from Wesfarmers and merge the relevant business units to IAG NZ and AU.

Working on a large programme based on Oracle EBS, Oracle BI Applications and Oracle Hyperion, I was hired to this programme as the Solution Architect responsible for all components that are not delivered out of the core applications.
