Services
Focused, practical work around privileged access, least privilege, and automation.
Privileged access design
Architecture and patterns for how high-impact access is requested, approved, and recorded.
Least privilege & endpoints
Endpoint elevation models that remove broad admin rights without blocking real work.
Automation & reporting
Scripts, tooling, and exports that make operations and audits easier to run and explain.
Ways to work together
Three common engagement shapes. Most clients start with an assessment, then move into a focused project.
Assessment / Health Check
Typical duration: 2–4 weeks
- Current-state review of privileged access, endpoints, and key identity components.
- Prioritized findings with quick wins and risks.
- Suggested roadmap for the next 60–90 days.
Focused Project
Typical duration: 6–12 weeks
- Example: safely remove broad local admin for a defined set of users or systems.
- Clear scope, milestones, and success criteria agreed up front.
- Runbooks, documentation, and knowledge transfer at the end.
Ongoing Support (fractional)
Typical duration: 3+ months
- Set hours per week or month for design reviews and troubleshooting.
- Small enhancements, script updates, and advisory support.
- Communication via agreed channels (email, calls, ticketing, etc.).
Consulting, not a product
PTIC does not sell or resell security software. The work focuses on designing, configuring, and rolling out the platforms and processes you already have – or are already planning to buy.
- No license quotas or reseller incentives.
- Advice that focuses on your environment, not a specific product.
- Hands-on help getting changes into production.
Privileged access services
Privileged access controls who can perform high-impact actions on your systems and how those actions are recorded. The goal is predictable, traceable access that is hard to misuse.
PTIC focuses on practical designs that your teams can support long-term, instead of over-engineered deployments that are hard to maintain.
- Architecture and patterns for privileged access workflows.
- Approaches for admin and service accounts across key systems.
- Session usage patterns and evidence that stand up to audits.
- Emergency access and approval workflows for high-risk changes.
- Documentation that explains decisions in plain language.
Least privilege & endpoint security
Removing broad admin rights from endpoints is one of the highest-impact controls you can implement — but only if it does not break how people work.
PTIC helps design and roll out tiered endpoint policies with clear elevation paths and predictable behaviour for end users and support teams.
- Role- and team-based elevation policies for users and admins.
- Controlled elevation for specific tools and workflows.
- Exception and just-in-time elevation approaches for edge cases.
- Rollout strategies that avoid “big bang” failures.
- User messaging and documentation that reduce confusion and tickets.
Automation, reporting & integrations
Most access and endpoint platforms expose rich data and APIs, but turning those into something useful takes time.
PTIC builds small, focused tools that help you see what is happening, prove it to auditors, and cut down on manual work.
- PowerShell and Python scripts for onboarding, reviews, and cleanup.
- Exportable reports for reviews, audits, and regulators.
- Integrations with your existing ticketing, logging, and monitoring systems.
- Simple portals or dashboards for security and infrastructure teams.
Scripts & tooling
Most projects include some scripting or small internal tools – especially around reviews, reporting, and health checks.
- PowerShell for AD, endpoint and platform automation.
- Python for exports, reports, and small internal utilities.
- JSON/YAML for repeatable policy and config templates.
These tools stay in your environment, with documentation so your team can maintain or extend them.

Common questions
Do you replace our existing tools?
No. The focus is using the platforms and processes you already have and tightening how they are used, not ripping and replacing products.
Do you only work remotely?
Work is primarily remote, with on-site working sessions available by agreement when they help move a project forward.
Do you work with our existing partners or vendors?
Yes. PTIC often collaborates with internal security, infrastructure, and audit teams, as well as external service providers, to get changes into production safely.
How do projects usually start?
Most engagements start with a short assessment or a narrow, high-value change — for example, cleaning up a specific admin group or formalizing a just-in-time elevation process.
Do you sell or resell security products?
No. PTIC is a consulting-only firm. You keep your existing vendor relationships; PTIC helps you design, configure, and operate the tools you choose.
