TOWER & PAM
Adversaries no longer break in — they log in. Fortify Workforce closes the identity vector end to end: TOWER governs the credentials, PAM governs the access those credentials buy, and the Autonomous AI Engine revokes both the moment a session stops behaving like the person who opened it.
The vector
Workforce identity is the vector adversaries prefer because it is the one that does not trip anything. Stolen credentials produce a valid login, a valid session, and a valid audit entry. Nothing in a perimeter-shaped defense has an opinion about it.
Corporate logins surface in breach dumps and criminal marketplaces weeks before a defender notices, giving adversaries an authenticated front door that no perimeter control inspects.
Administrative rights granted for one migration outlive the project by years, so a single compromised workstation inherits domain-wide reach.
One-time MFA at login says nothing about the ninety minutes that follow, when session hijacking and token replay actually happen.
TOWER holds the credentials under a zero-knowledge model and watches the criminal markets for them. PAM grants access as an ephemeral, identity-aware tunnel rather than a network address, so there is no standing privilege sitting in a group membership waiting to be inherited. vaultD removes the same problem from machine identities: dynamic, short-TTL secrets in place of static keys in config files.
The Autonomous AI Engine treats these as one decision surface. A credential TOWER sees in a breach dump is rotated, the sessions it opened in PAM are revoked, and the endpoint that held it is isolated through UEM — one decision, executed in sequence, in seconds, with the reasoning attached for the analyst who reads it afterwards.
Capabilities
What changes operationally
Identity reviews stop being a quarterly spreadsheet exercise and become a continuously enforced state. Offboarding completes in minutes rather than in the gap between HR and IT. And the blast radius of a phished password collapses from "whatever that account could ever reach" to "whatever that session was doing in the seconds before it was revoked".
