Identity · Zero Trust · Security Engineering

Identity is the control plane. Trust is never assumed.

Lucier Labs helps organizations design and operationalize Identity and Zero Trust across people, workloads, services, and infrastructure. We specialize in non-human identities and segmentation—where clear policy, automation, and ownership matter most.

Lucier Laboratories

Security architecture built for how modern systems actually operate.

Users are only part of the identity landscape. Applications, pipelines, service accounts, APIs, devices, and cloud workloads all request access—and each needs clear ownership, appropriate privileges, and a defined lifecycle.

Lucier Labs connects strategy to implementation. We work with security, identity, platform, and infrastructure teams to translate risk and business requirements into controls they can operate.

01 / Identity

Identity for humans and machines.

Make access understandable, governable, and automatable across workforce and workload identities.

01

Non-human identity

Define ownership, credential, access, and lifecycle patterns for service accounts, workloads, pipelines, APIs, and automation.

02

IAM architecture

Design target-state capabilities and integration patterns across directories, identity providers, cloud platforms, SaaS, and enterprise applications.

03

Governance and lifecycle

Create joiner, mover, and leaver workflows, policy models, approval paths, and access-review practices teams can operate.

04

Privileged access

Design authentication, authorization, elevation, and session-control patterns that reduce unnecessary standing privilege.

05

Federation and authentication

Connect users and applications through federation, SSO, MFA, and standards-based authentication patterns.

02 / Zero Trust

Zero Trust that becomes an operating model.

Move from principles to enforceable, observable policy across identities, applications, networks, cloud, and infrastructure.

01

Strategy and roadmap

Establish a practical target state, identify control gaps, and sequence work around risk, dependencies, and business priorities.

02

Segmentation and trust boundaries

Define boundaries around identity, workload, application, data, and risk—not network location alone.

03

Policy and continuous verification

Use identity and context to inform access decisions, exception handling, monitoring, and revocation.

04

Operationalization

Align architecture, engineering, governance, and operations so controls can be deployed, maintained, and improved.

03 / Engagement model

From current state to operating control.

  1. 01

    Assess

    Map identities, access paths, dependencies, controls, and risk to establish a shared baseline.

  2. 02

    Design

    Define target architecture, policy models, governance, and a prioritized delivery plan.

  3. 03

    Implement

    Build and integrate controls, automation, and workflows alongside the teams who will run them.

  4. 04

    Operationalize

    Document ownership, monitoring, exceptions, and lifecycle practices for sustainable operation.

The Lab / Public project

Practical foundations for security engineering.

The Lab is where Lucier Labs shares projects shaped by recurring identity and infrastructure problems. The Vault Onboarding Framework explores a parameterized, repeatable foundation for self-service HashiCorp Vault onboarding.
