What Identic group does

Identic group is a Switzerland-based IT services firm specializing in IT advisory, implementation, access management, consulting, training, and identity management services. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Baden, Switzerland, the company served clients across the DACH region (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland) with a focus on Identity and Access Management (IAM) and IT-Security. On August 18, 2025, Identic group was acquired by IPG (Information Process Group), itself part of the TIMETOACT GROUP, integrating its Swiss IAM capabilities into a larger group structure and strengthening the combined platform's position in the DACH IAM market.

Post-acquisition, the platform spans an on-premises core product — ipgCORE Solution, built on the IDABUS Identity Solution framework — and a cloud suite (IAM.cloud) covering Cloud Enterprise Identity Management, Cloud Privileged Access Management, Cloud C-IAM and Access Management, and ROLEnow for cloud-based role governance. Service offerings include 360-degree IAM assessments, Angular analysis workshops, Nexis health checks, digital authorization concepts, regulatory compliance support (NIS2, GDPR), SAP IdM migration, and ongoing managed services and training. The partner ecosystem is broad and vendor-agnostic, encompassing Microsoft, One Identity, SailPoint, Okta, BeyondTrust, Saviynt, Ping Identity, Imprivata, NEXIS, IDABUS, Wallix, Clear Skye, Eviden, OpenText, Beta Systems, and Keeper.

The business model is a mix of professional services (advisory, implementation, managed services, training) and product-led delivery through ipgCORE and the IAM.cloud suite. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; customer logos, revenue figures, and contract structures are not available in the source data. Headcount is stated at 11–50 employees, and the platform holds ISO 9001:2015 and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certifications, supporting credibility for security-sensitive enterprise engagements. AI is listed as an innovation theme but no deployed AI capabilities, proprietary models, or research output are disclosed.
