Cerby is an access management platform for nonstandard applications. Nonstandard applications do not support common identity and security standards like APIs and SSO. They also lack the ability to effectively onboard, offboard, and manage users at scale in large organizations. The Ponemon Institute found that 52% of organizations have experienced a cybersecurity incident caused by the inability to secure nonstandard applications. From a financial perspective, the average cost of manually onboarding and offboarding users from nonstandard applications is $1,000 per employee.
Cerby mitigates the cyber risk and financial impact by bringing any nonstandard application into the identity lifecycle of your existing workforce identity platform, e.g., Okta, Azure AD (Entra ID), Ping, etc. This removes the need for manual tools like enterprise password managers and reduces the compliance burden of managing nonstandard apps manually.
How Cerby works
Our patent-pending platform has two primary ingredients: our access orchestration engine and extensive application catalog. The intuitive access orchestration engine uses a combination of browser plug-in and APIs to automate critical security tasks.
Cerby maps each supported application and, depending upon what it exposes from an identity and security perspective, extends your IdP using a combination of protocols, robotic process automation, and application APIs. This allows us to create points of programmatic control even when the application itself does not expose them.
Automate access
Today, adding, removing, and sharing access to legacy and modern applications like Asana is manual. With Cerby, you can link these tasks to employee creation and removal events in systems like Okta or Azure AD (Entra ID), even if the application doesn't support SCIM. One click adds or removes access everywhere.
Go passwordless
Passwords aren’t the problem, users management of them and missing security standards like SAML and OIDC are. Once an application is managed in Cerby, users will never see or manage the password again. They can authenticate to any Cerby-managed application with corporate authentication methods, like Microsoft’s Authenticator, FIDO2 security keys, or Okta’s FastPass.
Enable visibility and response
Many nonstandard applications don’t support integrations with SIEMs and cannot track access at the individual level, particularly with shared and privileged accounts. With Cerby, all access is individualized and tracked, ready for your SIEM.
Automated 2FA enrollment
Getting your users to enable 2FA can be painful. With Cerby, you can set a policy and when employees onboard an application in Cerby, the access orchestration engine will automatically set up and enable 2FA.
Manage privileged access
When an employee leaves your company or a contractor's time is up, resetting passwords is an often forgotten step, especially for privileged and shared accounts. With Cerby, passwords automatically rotate according to your policy and SCIM events, guaranteeing access isn’t retained.
Cerby also manages passwords for SaaS administrative accounts in crown jewel applications like Microsoft 365, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Slack, and others.
Real results from real users.

"Before Cerby, our marketing teams spent hours each month managing access to Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and other social platforms. With the automation Cerby provides, we no longer have to worry about managing access and this has saved a lot of valuable time and increased our efficiency."
Danielle Ruess, Chief Marketing Officer
