Gemalto Simplifies and Secures Access to Cloud Applications with New Access Management Service
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
SafeNet Trusted Access Helps Companies Mitigate Risk with Integrated Single
Sign-on, Multi-Factor Authentication and Risk-Based Analytics
* Improves user experience providing Smart Cloud Single Sign-On (SSO) for
authentication when defined by the access policy
* Simplifies access management to cloud applications such as Office 365,
ServiceNow and Salesforce.com
* Leverages a powerful data-driven policy engine for enterprises to optimize
business security and user convenience via scenario-based access conditions
AMSTERDAM - June 13, 2017 - Gemalto, the world leader in digital security, today
announced the launch of SafeNet Trusted Access, an access management and
identity protection service, to secure cloud and on premise applications.
Powered by a robust risk-based analytics engine, Gemalto's solution delivers
integrated Cloud Single-Sign-On (SSO) and Multi-factor Authentication (MFA)
capabilities so companies can easily implement secure, conditional access and
additional authentication levels when outlined in the policy engine.
According to recent research, enterprises in 2017 are expected to utilize an
average of 17 cloud applications to support their IT, operations and business
strategies. With SafeNet Trusted Access a user can log on once to access all
approved applications, as defined by the policy for that application.

Risky Business: How contextual information is securing cloud app access". Click

"The adoption of cloud apps is fast becoming mainstream. Yet IT teams lag in
their ability to effectively manage and restrict access to these apps and offer
their employees the convenience they expect. With SafeNet Trusted Access, IT
Managers can set scenario-based policies linked to associated risk factors and
implement step up authentication for a particular application or group of users,
depending on the level of sensitivity and role," said Francois Lasnier, Senior
Vice President of Authentication Products at Gemalto. "We built this newest
addition on the expertise and success of the award winning SafeNet
Authentication Service to support our customers as they migrate their enterprise
workflows into the cloud. We designed this next-generation MFA and Cloud SSO
platform with the goal of making it easier for IT to align security with
business processes."
"Historically, controlling access to resources has been 'red-light/green-light'
or binary - you're either allowed in or you're not, and once they are in, most
SSO offerings are blind to anything a user does once they are granted. By
combining analytics with IAM, SafeNet Trusted Access provides companies with the
ability to identify anomalies in access patterns that could indicate risk and
help prevent data breaches," said Garrett Bekker, Principal Analyst at 451
Research. "
Gemalto's SafeNet Trusted Access key features include:
* Scalability- The solution features built-in integration templates making it
easy for companies to add new and existing cloud applications as needed
* Supports long-term IAM strategy - Companies benefit from a broad range of
Gemalto's stronger authentication methods and form factors such as one-time-
passwords and biometrics
* Risk-based analytics and detailed access policies- Scenario-based policies
define access controls, assess whether a login attempt is secure, apply the
appropriate level of authentication and require additional security
measures when necessary
* Visibility - Provides the right level of visibility into workforce identity
and access activities & events
* Centralized access management- A single pane of glass gives visibility into
all access events streamlining security audits, tracking and help desk
requests like password resets
* Regulatory compliance- IT can ensure compliance with relevant legislation
and standards using the solution's data driven insights on user behavior,
access events and policy enforcement.
