Why this approach is credible and applicable.
Who's behind it is relevant — but just as important is why this approach actually works in an enterprise environment.
Why Apdagio exists
Governance has become divided across IT, Security, Risk, Data and AI — each with its own tools, language and reporting line. Apdagio brings that together in one continuous model.
Practical experience
Practical experience in IT leadership, enterprise architecture, application management, identity governance, security, ISO 27001/NIS2, AI governance and service management — not from a theoretical framework, but from organisations where this had to work daily.
Governance first, automation second
First get governability and evidence in order, then automate. Automating an unstructured process just makes it unstructured faster.
Partnerships & ecosystem
Apdagio works with Microsoft Entra, Purview and Defender, and with Zluri as VAR partner for SaaS and identity discovery — active working relationships with the platforms that form the technical layer.
