To support digital transformation needs, modern enterprises require a modern CIAM solution that scales with their growth, handles complex authentication scenarios securely, and integrates seamlessly with their rapidly evolving technology stack. They also needed it fast—CIAM implementation projects have been notorious for taking months or even years to complete, but they can now be accomplished in days, or even hours.
To achieve this, a modern CIAM solution must be agile, easy to integrate, and user-friendly. It should deliver high reliability and availability without requiring extensive operational involvement from the business. It must also support seamless application integrations with the latest authentication and authorization standards. This combined approach can enable businesses to scale their services with confidence, meet growth targets, and provide a rich, secure, and seamless user experience.

CIAM Time to Value: Why SecureAuth Stands Out from the Competition
You’re probably wondering what sets SecureAuth apart from other CIAM vendors on the market. I’ve highlighted just a few of the unique differentiators below.
- Globally Distributed Infrastructure: A public SaaS infrastructure with SOC2 and ISO certifications offering 99.99% uptime SLAs. This ensures your applications are always available, providing a reliable and seamless end user experience.
- Innovative Pricing Model: Unlike traditional CIAM vendors that charge per user, we offer a pricing model based on the volume of authorization grants issued per month. This model allows us to offer the lowest CIAM subscription pricing on the market and ensures customers’ subscriptions will not increase until their users (whether new or old) drive actual usage (i.e., authorized transactions) of business applications. This means subscription cost is usage based.
- Flexible Identity Management: Ability to manage multiple identity/user/data pools and schemas, allowing businesses to tailor unique user experiences for distinct groups — whether they are vendors, partners, distributors, employees, or customers—ensuring that each user segment receives the experience that best suits their needs.
- Customizable User Journeys: Powerful built-in self-service theming capability to allow businesses to style and define their user journeys and experiences. This flexibility allows you to define the precise user experiences you want, strengthening your brand and improving user satisfaction.
- Advanced Delegation and Data Sharing: Multi-level delegation and third-party data sharing capabilities, supporting B2B, B2C, B2B2C, private label, white label, and other business models that require flexible and secure delegated administration. This capability reduces support and operational costs by enabling delegated administration across your entire business ecosystem.
- Embracing Open Standards: Complete support for FAPI (Financial-grade API) and all the advanced OAuth/OIDC specifications, delivers the highest levels of security and compliance for modern applications. This enables businesses to offer secure, seamless access to sensitive data, meeting the stringent requirements of industries like finance and healthcare. This also ensures that your technology stack is ready to handle the most demanding security and privacy challenges, giving your business a critical edge in protecting user data and maintaining trust.
- Integrated Permission Engine: For businesses requiring fine-grained control over user permissions, SecureAuth includes a built-in Zanzibar-inspired permission engine. This allows you to model complex business relationships and controls between identities and their associated data, providing robust access management that supports your business’s unique requirements.
Lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) with SecureAuth’s Open Standards Approach
One of the most significant challenges faced by businesses is the high total cost of ownership (TCO) associated with proprietary CIAM solutions. These traditional systems often require extensive custom development, specialized vendor tools, and ongoing maintenance—driving up both complexity and expenses over time. We take a fundamentally different approach. By leveraging open standards, our platform enables business applications to seamlessly integrate using a wide variety of widely supported, open-standard libraries. This approach drastically reduces reliance on custom vendor tools and methods, which often lock businesses into costly and inflexible solutions.
With the open standards-based model, your development teams can avoid the time-consuming and expensive process of building and maintaining custom integrations. Instead, they can use existing open-standard libraries widely supported and constantly updated by the global developer community to speed up integration and lower initial implementation costs.
By reducing the need for custom development, simplifying maintenance, and enhancing flexibility, SecureAuth significantly lowers the total cost of ownership for your CIAM solution. This means more resources can be allocated to driving business success rather than managing costly and complex identity management systems.
