The ecosystem control plane
A SaaS platform comprising federated directory, HSM-backed PKI, credential lifecycle management, conformance testing, and governance automation. Build trust and distribution once — then keep adding products, services, participants, sectors, and value across every cloud, every brand, and every partner. Without rebuilding the foundations every time.
This is your ecosystem. This is your ecosystem, governed.
Banks, fintechs, wallet providers, credential issuers, AI agents, scheme operators — across every cloud. Point solutions add strings. Raidiam Connect gives you one control plane that grows as your ecosystem grows.
Global Open Finance
847 entities. One dashboard.
Your world is hundreds of organisations across multiple clouds. Raidiam Connect gives you real-time visibility over every entity, certificate, and trust relationship — from one pane of glass.
From galaxy to granularity
Start at the federation level. Drill into a cluster. Select an entity. See its resolved policy, trust chain, certificates, and conformance status. Every level is governed.
Control, not chaos
Without Raidiam Connect, your federation is a spreadsheet. With it, certificates rotate automatically, conformance is enforced, and problems surface before they become incidents.
Not a gateway. Not an IAM. The ecosystem operating model that sits above both.
Connect works alongside your existing API gateways and IAM. It governs the trust relationships they can't see.
What Connect does. What it doesn't. Where it integrates.
What Connect provides
Core capabilities
- Federation directory and registration authority
- Participant identity verification and lifecycle management
- HSM-backed PKI — certificate issuance, rotation, revocation
- Trust chain resolution and policy enforcement
- Federation metadata publication and discovery
- Shared signals and real-time event notifications
- Operational dashboard — single pane of glass
- Conformance gating (via Raidiam Assure)
What Connect does NOT do
Explicitly out of scope
- API traffic routing or mediation — use your existing API gateway (Kong, Apigee, AWS API Gateway, Azure APIM)
- Consent management or consent lifecycle — this sits in your authorization server (e.g., Ozone, ForgeRock, your own)
- User authentication (login) — use your existing identity provider
- API sandbox or developer portal — use a sandbox provider (e.g., NayaOne) or your own
- Billing and API usage metering — use your API gateway's analytics
- Core banking integration — Connect governs trust relationships, not banking transactions
Where Connect integrates
Integration points
- Your API gatewayConnect publishes discovery metadata that gateways consume
- Your authorization serverConnect provides federation-based dynamic client registration; your auth server handles consent and token issuance
- Your identity providerConnect supports OIDC/SAML bridging for operator authentication
- Your PKI infrastructureConnect's CA can work alongside existing PKI (Venafi, HashiCorp Vault)
- Your SIEM/monitoringShared Signals exports events via webhooks and SSE
- Your CI/CD pipelineAssure runs conformance tests via API in your pipeline
- Your developer portalConnect’s APIs let you build your own interface on top of the trust services. The bundled portal is optional.
Raidiam Connect is the ecosystem control plane — it sits above your existing stack, replaces nothing, and adds the trust and governance layer that lets you expand. It doesn't replace your API gateway, your auth server, or your core banking system. It governs the trust relationships that those systems can't see across organisational boundaries.
What platformising your ecosystem means for your organisation
The technical capabilities are the foundation. The business impact is what justifies the investment.
Partner onboarding drops from months to weeks
Every partner waiting 6 months in your integration queue represents delayed revenue, a frustrated commercial team, and a competitor who might onboard them first. When integration drops to weeks, your partnership capacity is no longer gated by engineering availability. The same team manages 5x more partners — and your commercial pipeline stops being throttled by technical onboarding. This applies whether you're running the ecosystem or joining it. A building society connecting to a national scheme benefits from the same automation as the scheme operator.
Higher security at higher speed — not a tradeoff
Bilateral onboarding means shared secrets, manually exchanged certificates, and point-in-time security checks that are outdated by next quarter. Every major certificate-related outage in the last decade — from Equifax to O2 — was caused by manual tracking failures. Raidiam automates the entire certificate lifecycle with HSM-backed PKI, mTLS, and FAPI 2.0 security profiles. You onboard faster at a higher security standard than bilateral integration ever achieved.
Self-service certificate management eliminates a team
A typical trust infrastructure team — certificate issuance, rotation monitoring, OCSP operations, JWKS publication, revocation management — requires 4-8 specialist engineers. Multiply that by every partner ecosystem you operate in. Raidiam replaces that entire function with automated lifecycle management. No spreadsheets tracking expiry dates. No 2am calls when a production cert expires. No engineers doing undifferentiated heavy lifting.
The opportunity cost is the real number
The cost of Raidiam is on the invoice. The cost of not having it is invisible — buried across your engineering budget, your partner pipeline delays, your security team’s time, and your programme’s inability to scale. Every integration that takes 3 engineers 4 months when it should take 1 engineer 2 weeks. Every audit preparation that consumes a week of senior time when it should be a dashboard export. That’s the real number.
In Brazil, 159 banks onboarded to the national ecosystem with zero bilateral integration projects. In Australia, relying parties connected to four major banks in under an hour using Raidiam SDKs. In New Zealand, the fastest national deployment on record. The pattern is the same everywhere: faster onboarding, higher security, lower operational cost, and partners that go live in weeks instead of quarters.
One ecosystem control plane above every infrastructure boundary
Your services run across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and on-prem. Your partners run on different stacks. Your ecosystem doesn't stop at a cloud boundary — and neither should your trust model. Build it once above the infrastructure. Expand services and partners across any cloud without fragmentation.
Point solutions fragment at every cloud boundary
AWS IAM, Azure AD, and Google IAM each manage trust within their own environment. Every cloud boundary creates another trust gap. Another custom integration. Another reason your ecosystem can't grow without friction.
The ecosystem control plane operates above all of them
Raidiam Connect sits above all clouds and on-premises infrastructure. Build the trust model once. Every service registers once and becomes discoverable by all authorised participants — across every cloud.
New services and partners connect without rebuilding
An AI agent in Google Cloud discovers a payments API in AWS, verifies its trust, and connects — through the ecosystem control plane. No VPN. No custom integration. No rebuilding. That's what building once looks like.
One trust plane across every brand, jurisdiction, and stack
Your bank is not one stack. Different brands, different geographies, different vendors, different clouds. Raidiam Connect governs trust consistently across all of them.
Your bank has multiple brands, jurisdictions, and technology stacks. Raidiam Connect doesn't replace any of them — it provides the trust and federation layer that governs participant identity, certificates, and policy consistently across all of them.
Every new participant — whether the 1st or the 500th — uses the same governed journey
The biggest scaling bottleneck in any ecosystem is onboarding. Legal agreements, accreditation, identity verification, conformance testing, and technical registration — all before a participant goes live. Build this model once. Then every new participant, partner, and entity follows the same path. No bilateral negotiations. No custom builds. The onboarding model that scales with your ecosystem.

This is Raidiam Connect
Set the rules once. They enforce themselves as the ecosystem grows.
Governance is what makes ecosystem expansion safe. Set policies at the trust anchor. They cascade automatically through every domain, every participant, and every entity. As you add use cases, sectors, and partners, governance scales with you — no manual review, no spreadsheets, no bottleneck.
At 10 participants, manual governance works. At 500, it becomes a full-time team doing nothing but approving permission changes. The ecosystem control plane makes governance self-enforcing — the capability that lets you expand without gatekeeping.
Policy chaining
Each level can only narrow permissions set above. The chain validates automatically.
Sets maximum permissions for the ecosystem
Narrows permissions for their sector
Claims within permitted range
Operates within all constraints
Delegated governance
The federation operator sets the rules and delegates authority. Each domain manages itself.
Manages their own participants via self-service portal
self-serviceRegister, publish APIs, manage certificates
Manages their domain independently
self-serviceRegister, publish APIs, manage certificates
The federation operator sets the rules. Domain operators manage their own participants within those rules. Participants self-manage their technical resources. Nobody waits for tickets. Nobody emails spreadsheets. The federation enforces the boundaries automatically.
Policies narrow, never widen
Each level can only constrain further. A domain operator cannot grant permissions the trust anchor hasn't allowed. Governance is hierarchical by design.
Self-service within guardrails
Domain operators get their own portal. They onboard participants, manage resources, and issue certificates — all within the boundaries set by the federation operator.
Machine-readable compliance
Policy violations are detected automatically at the protocol level. No manual review. No audit scrambles. Compliance is built into the trust chain itself.
New participants and services discover each other automatically
In the ecosystem control plane, every organisation publishes its services, APIs, and credentials. New participants discover each other programmatically — no manual configuration, no bilateral exchange. The more participants you add, the more discoverable the ecosystem becomes.
Discovery eliminates the single most expensive step in partner integration: the bilateral exchange of endpoints, keys, and metadata. Without it, every new partner is weeks of manual configuration. With it, participants discover each other programmatically in seconds.
No bilateral setup. No client registration. The federation controller is the single source of truth. Applications and authorisation servers both query it. The OP pulls verified client information directly — no push-based registration needed. This works whether there are 2 organisations or 2,000.
Federation Discovery API
Applications query the controller for registered authorisation servers and API resource types. One query returns the entire ecosystem.
OP-Initiated Client Pull
When an authorisation server encounters a new client, it pulls the verified software statement and metadata directly from the federation controller.
OpenID Federation Trust Chains
Trust is established by resolving entity statements back to the trust anchor. Cryptographically verified. No pre-shared secrets.

One control plane across every brand, department, and partner
Your enterprise is an ecosystem — retail banking, private banking, payments, open data, AI agents, partner trust. Each domain has its own services and policies. Raidiam Connect gives you one control plane to govern them all. Add new domains, brands, and use cases without creating another trust island.
Without group-wide federation, every new brand, acquisition, or cross-domain service requires a separate trust integration. That fragmentation costs millions in duplicated infrastructure and months in delayed synergies. Build the enterprise control plane once — then expand as your business grows.
Bank Federation
Enterprise trust root
This is your enterprise platformised. One ecosystem control plane that lets you add domains, brands, partners, and use cases without rebuilding trust every time. Build once. Expand as your business grows.

Data sovereignty and residency
As your ecosystem expands across regions, data stays where it needs to. Raidiam enforces data residency at every level so you can grow without compromising sovereignty.
Raidiam deploys infrastructure in the client's chosen region. Data residency requirements for each national ecosystem are respected.
Client data does not leave the designated region. Multi-region replication occurs only within regions approved by the client.
Bring Your Own Database — if sovereignty controls require data to be stored in infrastructure you control, Raidiam supports customer-hosted databases accessible via VPN. You choose where your data lives. We connect to it securely.

Extend Connect with specialised capabilities
The real question: keep rebuilding, or build the foundations once?
Your API gateway routes traffic. Your IAM authenticates users. Neither manages trust between organisations, issues certificates, tests conformance, or governs participant lifecycle. That's a different discipline — and it's a permanent commitment, not a project.
The build cost
Directory. PKI. Registration authority. Onboarding. Conformance testing. Metadata publication. Shared signals. Budget 18–24 months if you’re good. Staff a team of 6–10 specialists.
This is the part everyone plans for. This is the easy part.
The operating cost
HSM key ceremonies every quarter. Certificate rotation across hundreds of participants. Conformance profiles updated every time a standard evolves. OCSP responders that must never go down. Shared signals that must propagate in real-time. A 24/7 on-call team for infrastructure your entire ecosystem depends on.
By Year 3, you’ll have expired certificates in production and a team maintaining infrastructure instead of building product.
This is the part nobody plans for — and it never ends.
The opportunity cost
Every engineer maintaining your trust infrastructure is an engineer not building your product. Every security review of your CA is a review not spent on your application. Every conformance update is a sprint not spent on customer value.
This cost compounds every quarter and never stops.
Raidiam has operated trust infrastructure for a decade — including Brazil's open finance ecosystem: 159 banks, 100 billion+ API calls, zero security incidents. We turn your three costs into one line item and give you back the team. Start at year 10.
