Modern organizations face mounting pressure to overhaul their identity governance systems. From federal agencies safeguarding sensitive data to enterprises streamlining access across complex hybrid environments, the demand for secure, scalable, and intelligent identity solutions has never been greater.

MajorKey’s HorizonID is a transformative solution built on Azure to extend the capabilities of Microsoft Entra Suite. It seamlessly bridges the gap between legacy identity systems and modern cloud-based strategies—delivering scalable security, streamlined compliance, and operational efficiency at scale.

What Is HorizonID?

HorizonID simplifies the transition from legacy identity platforms to Microsoft Entra ID Governance. Engineered to support complex, custom line-of-business integrations, it empowers organizations to retire fragile workflows and adopt cloud-native identity management with confidence.

By harnessing advanced logic, dynamic workbooks, and AI, HorizonID equips organizations to tackle real-world identity challenges—resolving issues like conflicting data sources, rehire scenarios, and role optimization with precision.

Key Features and Use Cases

Identity Onboarding from Disparate Systems

HorizonID consolidates identity data from multiple systems, applying precedence rules and transformations to prevent duplicates and ensure uniqueness.

Role Optimization with AI

Using Security Copilot, HorizonID performs smart role mining to analyze access patterns and recommend least-privilege roles—enhancing security and simplifying access reviews.

Complex Rehire Management

HorizonID supports continuity for rehires by handling reserved identifiers and automatically re-evaluating access based on updated roles and policies.

Modernizing Legacy Workflows

Outdated scripts and manual processes are replaced with prebuilt workflows, allowing organizations to retire on-premises systems like Exchange and move confidently to the cloud.

Governance and Compliance

HorizonID provides unified visibility through the cloud metaverse and custom reporting for governance and access reviews. It also supports identity signal exports to Microsoft Sentinel and Log Analytics for enhanced oversight.

HorizonID and AI

Not only is AI central to HorizonID’s identity governance capabilities, HorizonID helps organizations prepare for secure AI adoption. Building a solid identity governance foundation allows for controls, governance, and streamlined management for agentic AI.

AI enhances performance, decision-making, and security in the following ways:

  • Smart Role Mining: Analyzes user behavior and access patterns to recommend least-privilege roles, reducing over-provisioning and improving audit readiness
  • Contextual Identity Modeling: Resolves complex access issues by mapping identity relationships across systems and detecting anomalies
  • Automated Decision-Making: Enables dynamic provisioning and deprovisioning decisions based on real-time identity signals and policy context
  • Advanced Reporting: Delivers predictive insights into identity risks and compliance gaps through AI-powered analytics

Tailored for Federal and Regulated Environments

Federal agencies and regulated industries face unique challenges—ranging from deep custom integrations and multiple identity sources to strict compliance requirements. HorizonID, paired with Microsoft Entra Suite or Microsoft Entra ID Governance delivers a secure, AI-ready solution that:

  • Aligns security strategy with operational workflows
  • Resolves complex role and access management issues
  • Extends cloud identity capabilities across hybrid environments

Getting Started

MajorKey offers custom workshops to help organizations explore HorizonID and the Microsoft Entra Suite. These sessions are tailored to industry-specific needs—whether it’s integrating with Epic in healthcare or managing high-risk roles in federal environments.

Why HorizonID Is Your Strategic Advantage
