Recognizing a Strategic Partnership Shaping the Future of Identity Security at Global Scale
SAN JOSE, Calif., Dec. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Axiad, a global identity security leader, today announced that it has named Accenture its Customer of the Year for 2025. The recognition honors Accenture's visionary approach to securing its global enterprise through identity-first principles and celebrates the strategic collaboration in advancing the next generation of identity risk management.
Accenture demonstrates how a global enterprise with deep experience in acquisitions and integration can modernize identity security to strengthen both operational excellence and strategic growth. With nearly 100 acquisitions since 2023, Accenture applies a highly refined integration model that prioritizes security from day one. As part of this approach, Accenture implemented Axiad Conductor to deliver consistent, phishing-resistant authentication across diverse environments, accelerate alignment with corporate identity standards, and advance its passwordless strategy. The deployment now secures thousands of users, centralizes governance across distributed Active Directories, and meaningfully reduces privileged access, setting a benchmark for large-scale, identity-first security implementation.
"Accenture continues to demonstrate what is possible when identity is treated as a foundation for growth and operational excellence," said David Canellos, CEO of Axiad. "Our collaboration reflects a shared belief that strong, consistent authentication builds confidence across the enterprise and enables large-scale organizations to move at the speed their business demands."
The partnership between Axiad and Accenture is a prime example of a modern, identity-first approach to enterprise security, prioritizing efficiency and driven by data. This close collaboration between a cybersecurity pioneer and a global enterprise demonstrates an effective strategy for tackling a critical digital-age challenge: comprehensively securing every user, credential, and system without hindering innovation.
