Enterprise identity & delegated
authority

Identity, authority and evidence for enterprise systems.

Zoiko iD is designed to help enterprises establish who or what is acting, evaluate bounded authority, respond to changing trust signals and preserve reviewable evidence across existing identity and application estates. Supported integrations and deployment patterns must be confirmed for your environment.

Zoiko iD is designed to help enterprises establish who or what is acting, evaluate bounded delegated authority, respond to changing trust signals and preserve reviewable evidence alongside existing identity and application estates. Authentication confirms identity; authority decides what an actor may do. Supported integrations are confirmed for each environment.

Decision criteria

Authenticate is not authorize, and neither proves a mandate

Enterprises often ask one system to answer three different questions. Keeping them separate prevents a successful sign-in from being read as permission to act.

  • Authenticate — who is this?
  • Authorize — may this action happen?
  • Prove the mandate — on whose behalf, and why?

How a decision is made and explained

Five distinct nodes, each with its own owner

Actor and organization, mandate, policy, decision and reviewable evidence. Each node has its own limits, so none can stand in for another.

Text equivalent. An actor (person, service or AI agent acting for an organization) makes a request; a mandate states who granted authority, purpose, resources and timeframe; policy is evaluated against current context; a decision is produced for this request; reviewable evidence records the basis and is shown only to authorized reviewers.

Architectural coexistence

Your existing systems stay authoritative for what they own

Existing identity providers, directories and applications continue to own the functions they already run. Zoiko iD is designed to sit alongside them as an overlay, with explicit boundaries.

Identity provider

Authentication

Alongside, as an overlay

Automatic compatibility with every vendor

Applications

Business actions

Requests decisions and enforces them

Replacement of application logic

Policy decision

Rule evaluation

Bounded decision inputs and context

Universal production engine guarantees

Evidence owner

Authoritative record

Provenance and decision context

Immutable or legally sufficient logs

Support for a specific identity provider, protocol or application is confirmed for your environment. No universal compatibility is claimed.

Evaluation paths

Start from the question your team owns

Enterprise adoption

Five conceptual gates

These gates describe how an evaluation is usually structured. Each has an owner, and none commits you to a timeline or a deployment.

  1. Discover

    Read how the architecture fits.

  2. Scope

    Choose the identity classes in view.

  3. Validate

    Review architecture, API and trust material.

  4. Govern

    Agree controls with security and privacy.

  5. Operate

    Plan ongoing ownership and change.
