# What is Ironchip

> Ironchip turns the place an access or transaction comes from into proof of identity. Its products, how they fit together and where to start for your role.

Ironchip is a Spanish cybersecurity company. Its platform starts from a simple idea: **the place someone accesses or operates from says as much about their identity as the password they type**. From an anonymous signature of the radio environment of each place, with no coordinates and no personal data, the platform decides whether an access is allowed, reinforced with another factor or blocked, and scores the risk of every banking transaction.

Four products sit on that core. They all share the admin console, the directory you already run and the same certifications.

## Where to start

## A typical rollout, in four steps

1. **Connect the directory.** Sync users and groups from Active Directory, Entra ID or LDAP. Ironchip does not replace your directory, it relies on it. [Identity synchronization](https://docs.ironchip.com/en/identidad/administracion/sincronizacion/).

2. **Define safe zones and policies.** Headquarters, a plant floor, the data center or the home of someone working remotely. Decide what is allowed inside and what happens outside. [Safe zones](https://docs.ironchip.com/en/identidad/conceptos/zonas-seguras/).

3. **Protect the first application.** Register the service in the console with the protocol it supports and assign groups to it. Start with a low-impact application and expand later. [Protocols](https://docs.ironchip.com/en/identidad/protocolos/).

4. **Enroll the workforce.** Distribute the app, enable automatic invitations and pick a method per workstation: mobile, desktop, FIDO2, USB token or card. [Enrollment](https://docs.ironchip.com/en/identidad/usuarios/alta/).

## How this documentation is organized

Each product has its own section with the same structure: **get started**, **concepts**, **administration** and **user** guides, **integrations** or **SDK and API**, and **reference**. The sidebar switcher changes product; search covers all of them.

The documentation is available in Spanish and English (selector in the header) and as plain text for agents at [/llms.txt](https://docs.ironchip.com/llms.txt).
