Axiad Conductor runs the full lifecycle of the credentials your workforce signs in with and the certificates your machines depend on. Phishing-resistant MFA, PKI-as-a-Service, and certificate lifecycle management run in one FedRamp Authorized platform.
On the human side, it's the hardware token that took three weeks to ship, the password reset that tied up the helpdesk, and the credential that should have been revoked when someone left. On the machine side, it's the certificate that expired at 2 a.m. and took a customer-facing service down with it.
Machines already outnumber your people by roughly 100 to 1, and most of them authenticate with certificates. The maximum lifespan of a public TLS certificate dropped to 200 days in March 2026. It drops to 100 days in 2027 and 47 days in 2029. Renewal that depends on someone remembering, or on a script nobody owns, stops working long before that last deadline arrives.

Conductor issues, renews, recovers, and revokes the credentials your people use to sign in, from FIDO2 security keys to smart cards to certificate-based authentication. Users handle the common requests themselves. Your helpdesk gets its time back.
Conductor supports FIDO2/WebAuthn and PKI certificates from one platform. Register devices, issue credentials, and manage authentication for Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, Ping Identity, and ForgeRock without running a separate system for each.
Deploy hardware tokens up to 10 times faster and track every one in one place. A US defense contractor rolled out 30,000 YubiKeys in two months.
Self-service handles setup, renewal, and the lost-token scenario, so a user doesn't have to open a ticket to get back to work. A US railroad cut authentication-related service desk calls by 35%.
Axiad Confirm, built into Conductor workflows, checks a government-issued ID and a live selfie before a credential is issued or reissued, so a convincing voice on a helpdesk call isn't enough to get one.
The credential journey:
Most teams don't have a complete inventory of the certificates they depend on, and the ones that fall off the list are the ones that take services down. Conductor gives you two ways to fix that: run your PKI as a managed service, and manage every certificate across your environment, whichever authority issued it.
Running your own PKI takes specialized people, HSMs, and a lot of on-call hours. Axiad runs it for you as a cloud service: certificate authorities, HSMs, CRL and OCSP, and the full issue, renew, and revoke lifecycle, with FIPS 140-2 validated cryptography. Our savings calculator shows what your current PKI actually costs you, so you can make the case with numbers.
Axiad CLM (Certificate Lifecycle Management) finds every certificate in your environment, whichever certificate authority issued it, including the forgotten and unmanaged ones. It reaches servers, devices, and appliances without an agent wherever it can, and uses a lightweight agent only where one is required. Then it takes renewal off your team's plate for good.
Discover everything
Every certificate from every authority in one inventory, including the ones nobody is tracking.
Assign ownership
Every certificate tied to the endpoint it secures and a named, accountable owner.
Automate rotation
Renewal at whatever cadence the rules require, with no manual scramble and no expired-certificate downtime.
Prove control
Audit-ready evidence of coverage and rotation when the auditor asks which certificates are compliant and who owns them.
NIST finalized its first post-quantum cryptography standards in 2024, and federal mandates now put migration on a clock. Every certificate you can't see is one you can't migrate. Conductor and Axiad CLM give you the inventory, the ownership, and the automated rotation that a quantum-safe migration depends on, and the same managed service carries the migration as the new standards are adopted.
Visibility tools hand you hundreds of findings. Axiad Mesh ranks identity risk across your people, machines, and AI agents, so your team knows which issues matter most and who owns them. Conductor and Axiad CLM are how those decisions get carried out. Conductor replaces weak credentials with phishing-resistant ones. Axiad CLM rotates and replaces the certificates Mesh flags, starting with the cryptography post-quantum will break first, ranked by what depends on it and how far a failure would spread.
A certificate-only tool can tell you a certificate is about to expire. It can't tell you which of the ten thousand to fix first.

Axiad was the obvious choice for us to improve our MFA. We had numerous standards we needed to meet and wanted a trusted partner with expertise in all the credentials we would require.
Cryptographic elements discovered and mapped to owners across the enterprise.
The Axiad solution is world-class, and the experts on the team were able to support us and understand what we wanted at every level. We rolled out a new MFA solution in 2 months to 30,000 YubiKey users.
Users secured with phishing-resistant credentials in just two months.
Axiad has driven down the number of our calls. This, in turn, saves labor hours on both our service desk and on the users.
Reduction in authentication-related service desk calls.

Credit Union Secures Machine Identities with Future-proof Axiad Conductor PKIaaS.

Global Leader Provides Innovative MFA Solution to 100,000+ Employees with Axiad Conductor
Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, Ping Identity, ForgeRock, and Active Directory. Conductor can work with one or several at the same time, so you don't have to consolidate identity providers before you roll out phishing-resistant MFA.
It depends on the number of users and the authenticators you choose, but it's measured in weeks, not years. A US defense contractor rolled out 30,000 YubiKeys in two months.
The lost credential is revoked, and the user gets a replacement through self-service without waiting on a helpdesk ticket. If you use Axiad Confirm, the user verifies their identity with a government-issued ID and a live selfie before the new credential is issued, so a convincing phone call isn't enough to get one.
No. Conductor integrates with the PKI you already run, so you can move to Axiad's PKI-as-a-Service in phases, one certificate authority or one use case at a time. Our savings calculator shows what your current PKI costs so you can decide what to move first.
Yes. Axiad Conductor is FedRAMP Moderate Authorized and uses FIPS 140-2 validated cryptography, with HSM options including Thales Luna, AWS CloudHSM, and Utimaco. Axiad CLM is on a path to run inside that same authorized boundary. Talk to our federal team for current status.
Yes. Axiad CLM is CA-agnostic. It discovers and manages certificates from your internal CAs, public CAs, and Axiad's PKI-as-a-Service, and it doesn't require you to move issuance to Axiad.
No. Axiad CLM discovers certificates without an agent wherever it can, and uses a lightweight agent only where a system requires one.
The CA/Browser Forum schedule applies to publicly trusted TLS certificates. Private certificates aren't bound by it, but the same pressures apply: more machines, shorter lifespans, and auditors who want proof that every certificate is owned and current. Automating rotation now means the next policy change is a settings update.
No. Conductor already works with Venafi and AppViewX discovery. When you're ready to consolidate, Axiad CLM brings certificate lifecycle management into the same platform as your PKI and credentials, so you have one fewer contract and one fewer console.
