Built on Nordic clarity.

Fortytwo is a Norwegian cloud, identity, and security company built for organizations that depend on things working as they should, every day.

We Build Intelligent Companies

Fortytwo is a Nordic company built on a simple premise: intelligence should be embedded into how organisations operate, not added as a layer on top.

Rooted in the Nordic tradition of trust, transparency, and long-term thinking, we combine strategic clarity with deep technological capability across the Microsoft ecosystem. Our work sits at the intersection of business design, digital architecture, and Agentic AI.

We believe the future belongs to organisations that redesign themselves around autonomous, goal-driven systems , not those that experiment at the margins. Fortytwo exists to design and implement that shift.

The Nordic Moment

Our foundation shapes how we see the market around us.
The Nordics are digitally advanced and institutionally strong, with organisations built on trust, transparency, and operational discipline. This creates unusually good conditions for meaningful transformation. But a structural shift is underway.

AI is no longer a layer added to existing processes. It is becoming part of the infrastructure that defines how decisions are made and how work gets done.

The question is no longer whether to adopt AI, but how to redesign the company around it.

Many organisations are still experimenting at the edges. The real opportunity lies in rethinking the core.

From Strategy to Autonomous Execution

Redesigning the core requires more than tools. It requires alignment between intent, architecture, and execution.

Fortytwo operates where business strategy meets the Microsoft ecosystem and Agentic AI. We design operating models where intelligent systems are embedded into workflows, decision structures, and products. The objective is structural capability, not isolated automation.

Our work connects direction with delivery. Strategy is shaped with implementation in mind, and systems are built with clear accountability and measurable outcomes. The result is an organisation that can reason, act, and adapt with speed and control.

Why Fortytwo

Fortytwo was built to close the gap between advisory and implementation.

Too often, direction is defined in one room and built in another. This separation slows progress and diffuses responsibility. We remove that divide by carrying ownership from definition to deployment.

As a Nordic company operating inside the Microsoft ecosystem, we combine contextual understanding with deep platform expertise. This allows us to move with precision while respecting regulatory, organisational, and cultural realities.

The Direction Ahead

The conditions in the Nordics make deep transformation possible. High digital maturity and institutional trust provide a strong base for responsible adoption of Agentic AI.
The next step is deliberate redesign.
Fortytwo exists to build organisations where intelligence is not a feature, but a defining capability.

How We Work

Our work is direct and outcome oriented.

We engage closely with leadership, define clear objectives, and translate them into architecture and systems. Communication is explicit. Trade-offs surface early. Progress is visible.

We prioritise clarity over complexity and delivery over presentation.

Our Perspective

AI is reshaping how advantage is created. The shift is not about productivity gains alone, but about how intelligence becomes embedded in structure.

Autonomous systems will influence how decisions are prepared, how processes evolve, and how services are delivered. Organisations that adapt their operating model accordingly will widen the gap to those that treat AI as an add-on.

This is the shift we design for.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

FAQ

How does Fortytwo price their services?

Cost depends on environments, compliance requirements, identity complexity, and whether you want ongoing operations. We’re transparent about drivers and trade-offs.

What is a typical timeline for working with Fortytwo?

Most organizations can establish a stable foundation in weeks, then expand iteratively. Identity and security changes often show early operational impact. Ideally, Fortytwo works with our customers over time.

What does it take, working with Fortytwo?

You will get clear ownership of your target operating model, clarity on sources of truth for organisation and people data, and you need to have å willingness to standardize. We help you get there.

How does Fortytwo reduce security risks?

The biggest risks are exceptions, unclear ownership, and partial adoption. We reduce this with golden paths, guardrails, staged rollout, and operational handover.

Build in-house or team up with a partner like Fortytwo?

If you have the competence density and capacity, in-house can work. Many teams don’t, and drift plus incidents cost more than building a repeatable operating model with the help of a partner that can act as a specialised extension of your own team.

Why not just buy a tool?

Tools don’t create standards, ownership, and repeatable patterns. We implement the operating system that makes tools behave consistently.

What is Agentic AI?

Agentic AI refers to AI systems that can act autonomously on behalf of users or organizations, executing tasks across systems over time.

Why does Agentic AI create new risk?

Because agents combine autonomy, persistence, and delegated access, often without sufficient controls.

What is Agent Identity?

An AI agent treated as a managed identity with ownership, permissions, and lifecycle.

Can agents be monitored like users?

Yes, and they should be. We treat them as insider-like identities.

Is this relevant for compliance?

Yes. Agent governance supports audit, incident response, and regulatory requirements.

What’s the biggest risk of doing nothing about AI agent identity?

Losing control of autonomous systems that act with enterprise authority.

What is SecOps?

SecOps is how detections, incidents, response, and improvement work together in practice.

Is this just SIEM?

No. SIEM is a tool. SecOps is an operating model that makes tools effective.

Is this Microsoft specific?

Yes. We focus exclusively on the Microsoft security ecosystem.

Do you replace our SOC?

No. We strengthen it or help you build one that actually works.

Is this a one time project?

No. Security operations must evolve as threats and environments change.

How fast can we see results?

Most teams see clearer incidents and better alerts within weeks.
