Strong Authentication Made Easy

As your company attempts to implement a stronger level of network access security to meet regulatory compliance demands, you require a variety of multi-factor options and clear visibility into which employees accessed what, when and how in order to provide bulletproof audit capabilities.  User authentication satisfies that requirement.

The need for organizations to implement multiple types of strong authentication options is driven by user environment, habits and workflow.  All authentication options are not created equal – if more convenience is needed for users within the office – the choice could be biometrics.  For remote users who access the corporate network through a variety of points – there are one-time password tokens.  And, some organizations will want to leverage the building access cards their employees already carry for network access as well.  But managing all these disparate user authentication options within one environment has been virtually impossible – until now.

Imprivata OneSign Authentication Management is a unique user authentication solution that integrates a broad range of flexible and powerful strong authentication types – all managed from within a single administrator framework.  OneSign eases the cost and complexity of managing independent systems and provides a central location for reporting access events across all strong authentication options, reducing the burden of regulatory compliance.

Imprivata OneSign Single Sign-On (SSO)

It’s a fact that no employee will dispute: passwords equal huge headaches - causing user frustration and hindering productivity – not to mention the burden on the IT Help Desk for password resets.  Employees, while trying to keep pace with password policy, jot passwords on sticky notes, attach them to monitors or under keyboards – ironically creating significant security vulnerabilities and risk — quite simply, what the password policy was meant to negate. An identity access management nightmare!

Fortunately, creating secure and easy user access no longer is at odds with employee productivity and can be effectively managed as part of your identity and access management security initiatives.  Introducing Imprivata OneSign Single Sign-On (SSO), the easy, smart and affordable solution for password management.  Single sign-on enablement is rapid, and does not require any scripting or modification of existing application code.

Closing Security Gaps Between Networks, Applications and Building Security

Today, enterprise security systems operate in independent technology silos, causing potential gaps between the organization’s networks, applications and building security.

There is the logical security side that protects IT resources, and a physical side that restricts access to buildings and protects employees, but as organizations work to mitigate information theft and comply with data protection regulations, new initiatives are underway to leverage the combined power of all enterprise security systems, across all phases of the business in order to affect a stronger overall security posture.

Historically, connecting and gaining value cost effectively from these disparate systems has been considered impossible from a practical perspective – until now.

Imprivata OneSign Physical/Logical provides system level integration between both security environments to enable one comprehensive, converged policy for allowing or denying network access based on an employee’s physical location and badge events, role, and/or employee status.
