Concepts

Axiad Mesh correlates accounts from every connected system into a single view of who — and what — has access in your organization, then scores the risk each one carries. The pages in this section explain the ideas the rest of the documentation builds on:

• Identities — how Mesh correlates accounts from different systems into one identity, and how to review and correct correlations.
• Entities — how identities group into organizational entities so you can see risk by team, department, or function.
• Delegation — how remediation work is assigned to the person best placed to act on it.
• Risk scoring — what the risk score means, how it is calculated, and how to read it across the product.
• Remediation — how risks get fixed: guided steps in the product, delegation with direct user notifications, and automated external remediation through A2A agents.
• Programs — how Mesh tracks organization-wide security initiatives, such as a post-quantum migration or an MFA rollout, as measurable efforts with progress and loss exposure prevented.
• Policies — the rules Mesh evaluates your identities and assets against, including the cryptographic policies behind post-quantum readiness.
• Investigations — how you drill from a summary into the evidence, and the identity graph and attack-path views you explore along the way.

One more mental model lives in the User Guide: Generative UI explains workspaces — the agent-composed views that exist alongside the classic dashboards these concepts describe. The concepts on this page apply identically in both modes.

If you are setting up Mesh for the first time, start with Getting Started — it links back here whenever a step introduces one of these ideas.
