Without a central IAM, there are security risks, high internal load on the IT department, and compliance gaps. An IAM solution protects sensitive data, simplifies audits and relieves IT teams through automation and clear processes.

Bare.id is based on an auditable open-source core (Keycloak) and supplements it with enterprise functions, a user-friendly admin interface and, optionally, stable, professional operation. Thanks to the open architecture, it is possible to switch back to Keycloak at any time, so that there is no vendor lock-in. At the same time, Bare.id relies entirely on a German supply chain in all areas of the company. You get a digitally sovereign IAM solution that also meets the high compliance requirements of the public sector. Whether on-premises, self-hosted, hybrid or as a SaaS variant.

Bare.id guarantees 100% data sovereignty in Germany, GDPR compliance by design, German support and contract law. In contrast to US providers, there is no Cloud Act problem. The solution was developed specifically for European compliance requirements.

Bare.id is suitable for companies of all sizes and public institutions that need to authenticate employees, partners, or customers. The platform is particularly relevant for organizations that need to centrally manage many user groups or applications and have high requirements for security, compliance and flexibility.

Open standards such as SAML, OpenID Connect and SCIM can be used to connect almost all modern applications — from cloud services and specialist processes to internal web portals or in-house developments. The connection is standards-compliant and without proprietary extensions.

Bare.id can integrate existing directory services such as Active Directory or HR systems. Identities, attributes and roles are adopted and further processed centrally so that no parallel user populations are created. Third-party systems can also remain the leading systems or be completely replaced. The integration of several (external to the company) identity sources is also easily possible.

Existing automation solutions and applications can be integrated via standard interfaces or proprietary connections. Using APIs and event interfaces such as Syslog, bare.ID can be connected to other IT systems — for example for automated provisioning or to transfer events to SIEM systems. All relevant data is available via push and pull mechanisms.

Yes Bare.id can be operated as SaaS, in hybrid environments, self-hosted or completely on-premises — depending on (security) requirements, IT strategy and regulatory framework. All Bare.id versions are the same for all operating models. Therefore, all functionalities are also available in all models without a release delay.

An IAM system creates a central, traceable basis for managing identities and access rights. roles, permissions. Changes are documented in an audit-proof manner, accesses are logged and authorization processes are implemented consistently. This makes it possible to implement requirements from GDPR, NIS2 and ISO 27001 — such as controlled access to personal data, clear responsibilities, and transparent, verifiable security and administrative processes.

All data is processed exclusively in German data centers. These are certified in accordance with ISO 27001 and BSI C5, among others. Bare.id also ensures a completely German supply chain. Bare.id thus supports the requirements of KRITIS operators and other regulated organizations in implementing BSI requirements and NIS2 guidelines.
