About Rapyd

Rapyd offers powerful fintech solutions that help customers acquire, hold, and send funds across a variety of countries and currencies. Rapyd customers can create virtual accounts, issue corporate cards, manage compliance, and more. With customers like Uber and Ikea, it’s clear that Rapyd has a growing portfolio of customers to support. With that success comes increased responsibility for Rapyd’s IT and security team. 

IT and security teams are the unsung heroes of the modern workplace. Keeping sensitive information safe while simultaneously navigating the technological leaps and bounds that seem to take place every other day is no easy feat. And with mid-market organizations like Rapyd utilizing over 250 apps in their tech stacks, it’s important to have clear visibility into user permissions. It’s even more important to act quickly when employees depart.

Repetitive tasks during the employee offboarding process

As the number of employees at Rapyd grew, the IT Security team faced a common problem during the onboarding and offboarding process – repetitive tasks. Whether it was assigning user permissions or revoking them, their team found themselves doing the same tasks manually over and over again. 

Not only was this time-consuming, but it also meant that licenses needed to be purchased for different systems, which escalated costs. The team knew that they needed a fresh solution that could help them handle these tasks seamlessly and efficiently. 

Thus began their search for a tool or platform that could reduce workload and provide a solution that would work for their organization - and they found one with Blink.

SOLUTION

Faster, accessible automation with Blink

Blink’s vast library of automated workflows offers exactly what the Rapyd security team needed to streamline IAM and IT tasks. They were able to seamlessly connect their Atlassian solutions with their Google Workspace which opened up a world of automation possibilities.

“With Blink, we were able to quickly execute automated provisioning between our Atlassian groups and Google groups. We can now fully control access to projects and spaces with a single automated workflow.” – IT & Security Operations Manager, Rapyd  

Rapyd is taking security seriously with the implementation of Blink. With faster and more accessible security automation, Rapyd is able to efficiently manage access to projects and workspaces. This not only reduces overall security risk during an employee's departure, but is also a significant productivity boost for security practitioners. Blink allows Rapyd to streamline the employee offboarding process, saving valuable time and resources.
