Microsoft Recognizes Aquera as Strategic Alliance Partner:

Microsoft features Aquera as strategic partner for HR-driven identity integration with Active Directory (AD) and Entra ID, and sync with 900+ non-Gallery business apps.

Microsoft with Aquera: Identity Lifecycle Management at Scale:

✅ Microsoft recognizes Aquera for HR-driven identity sync between Entra ID (Azure AD) and HCM, embedding identity context throughout the employee lifecycle to reduce risk.
✅ Gartner Designates Aquera "Cool Vendor" (2022) in Identity-First Security; and Specialists (2024) in “Identity data integration" and "SCIM gateway".

Bi-directional Automated Sync: Cloud, On-Prem, Hybrid:

The Aquera Computer Associates (CA) Top Secret (TSS) Sync Bridge to AD and Entra ID synchronizes user accounts bidirectionally in CA Top Secret to Active Directory (AD) on-prem, AD/Entra ID hybrid, and pure Entra ID cloud. When only AD is used, the Aquera Sync Bridge syncs users directly from HR systems or from AD directories into Top Secret. Additionally, for Entra ID Identity Governance and Administration (IGA), the Aquera Sync Bridge retrieves user entitlements from Top Secret and imports to Entra ID when supported in Entra.

Trusted by 1,000+ Customers:

Over 1,000 market-leading innovators have deployed Aquera. For other apps, Aquera SCIM Gateway for Entra ID synchronizes user data for consistent and unified identity throughout your HR and other IT systems.
