Summary
Mark Van Eijken is an identity and cloud security consultant with nine years of focused experience designing and implementing Microsoft-centric IAM, hybrid Azure, and Office 365 solutions. He co-founded Fortigi, a federation of independent identity and security specialists, and prefers pragmatic, team-first approaches that prioritize lasting value and transparency over bureaucracy. His hands-on expertise spans Microsoft Identity Manager, Omada Identity Suite, Azure AD, ADFS, MFA, EM+S and PowerShell, with repeated roles as technical lead on complex migrations, RBAC and CIAM projects in large Dutch organizations. Mark is people-centric: he builds collaborative teams to solve identity challenges that are hard to tackle alone, and often bridges HR systems with identity governance for auditable, scalable outcomes. Based in Sommelsdijk, he brings both consultancy breadth and deep operational experience—an automation enthusiast who still values practical engineering over theoretical idealism.
