We are Fortigi

Fortigi means strengthening each other.
Stronger together in Identity & Security.

We are a Dutch partnership (maatschap) of senior Identity & Security specialists who stand surety for each other. Independent where possible, together where it makes us stronger: from advice and expertise to joint responsibility for complete programmes, from design and implementation to operation and continuous improvement.

  • Since 2016a partnership, no shareholders
  • 9 partnersall senior, all working with clients
  • ISO 27001certified information security management system

Stronger together

Our collaboration rests on five principles

Fortigi is Esperanto for strengthening each other. We were founded as a partnership, without shareholders or shareholder interests. Partners stand surety for each other, in the broadest sense. These principles are not slogans; they are the basis for everything we do.

  • Pragmatism over ideology.
  • Lasting value over revenue.
  • Adapting when it is needed.
  • Trust and collaboration.
  • Sharing knowledge instead of guarding it.

Expertise

Identity & Security, from strategy to technology

Who has access to what, why, and how to keep that demonstrably under control. That is our field. We combine depth of knowledge with experience from dozens of programmes in government, financial services and industry.

  • Identity Governance & Administration (IGA)
  • Identity & Access Management
  • Microsoft Entra
  • PAM / PIM
  • CIAM
  • Role models & authorisation management
  • Cloud & security architecture
  • Governance & compliance

Approach

Advise, implement, operate

Sometimes one experienced specialist is exactly what is needed. Sometimes several partners work together. And sometimes Fortigi as an organisation takes responsibility for the whole programme, including operations after go-live.

  1. Advise

    Inventory, analysis and advice: mapping the current situation, defining the target and a sober view of what is really needed. Strategy, architecture and governance.

  2. Implement

    Analysis and design, configuration, integration and migration of IGA and IAM solutions. End to end, with a team that knows each other.

  3. Operate

    Operational management and continuous improvement. The people who built it stay involved.

Sharing knowledge

Open source, because knowledge gets better when you share it

What we build for our own work, we share where we can. On GitHub we publish tools and modules for Identity & Security, for anyone to use and improve.

Organisation

Small and senior, and still an organisation you can build on

Fortigi is more than a group of independents. As a partnership we contract and deliver projects ourselves, and we keep operating solutions after implementation. Our information security management system is certified to ISO 27001. That shows that information security and continuity are anchored in the organisation, not just in individuals.

DigiTrust ISO 27001 certification mark: information security management system, RvA C 618
Certified by DigiTrust, accredited by the Dutch Accreditation Council (RvA C 618).

Ecosystem

Omada partner

For Identity Governance we have worked closely with Omada for years. Our partners have successfully delivered a good number of Omada implementations, on-premises and in the cloud, and Omada named Fortigi its Partner of the Year. We also contribute to the Omada community: our open-source tools for Omada are on GitHub for everyone to use. And where another platform fits better, we say so.
