SinglePoint™ Further Secures Google Apps & Streamlines Management
SinglePoint Single Sign-On
Enterprises enjoy the convenience of Cloud-based apps, but don’t want additional user accounts to manage. With SinglePoint Authentication, employees use their existing Windows logon to seamlessly access Google Apps with no additional accounts. SinglePoint provides SSO for multiple Web apps, from both sides of the firewall, reducing the number of passwords that users need to remember, creating a simpler user experience.
SinglePoint’s Collaboration Portal links access for multiple collaboration apps, granting users access to authorized apps through Universal SSO. The user password reset process is consolidated and help desk calls are reduced because redundant credentials are no longer needed. Symplified can also transform IAM 1.0 sessions like SiteMinder into Cloud-native sessions. For highly sensitive apps, Symplified offers Arcot’s industry leading strong
authentication. The Arcot solution is pre-integrated into
the SinglePoint platform and can be deployed in days.
SinglePoint Granular Access Controls
SinglePoint has integrated access control technology for Google Apps with enterprise-class security controlling which employees and partners can access content on Google Apps. Based on the open XACML authorization standard, SinglePoint provides enterprise-class tools to manage selective access to spreadsheets, presentations and other documents. It can be configured for a single user, group, department, or entire company. Centralized auditing provides visibility into how Google Apps have been accessed to demonstrate compliance.
Integrating Behind The Firewall Directories To
Google With Symplified
Account proliferation is a challenge for IT and end users today. Each new application requires a new account, leading employees to use their network login and password for Cloud apps. This results in greater security risks. SinglePoint solves this issue by integrating with your existing directory or data store (Active Directory, LDAP, and databases) to secure access to Google Apps. Credentials are passed securely from your firewalled systems to Google Apps. Any changes to user privileges in your directory are automatically enforced for your users on Google Apps. Users can be locked out from Google Apps by deactivating their Active Directory account. SinglePoint can also link user identities stored in Salesforce.com, including customers, partners and suppliers, to Google Apps.
SinglePoint Universal Sign-On™
SinglePoint’s flexible architecture eliminates the need to spend thousands of dollars and months learning and implementing the SAML protocol. SinglePoint connects to Google Apps securely using SAML, transforming your Windows desktop sessions into SAML sessions for transparent and federated access. SinglePoint also provides Universal SSO using HTTP sessions for transparent access to the many applications that do not support SAML.
Symplified offers the broadest federation capabilities on the market today. Symplified federation is available in solution bundles to meet your current needs. Start with Symplified’s Connect Express™ for a hosted SAML SSO solution and then add additional functionality as your needs evolve. Add access control, a virtual directory and Universal SSO for all the apps you have that don’t support SAML, by simply upgrading your subscription to Symplified’s Cloud Access Manager™ without a forklift upgrade.
Symplified SinglePoint can be delivered over the Cloud and be up and running in days. SinglePoint’s direct, native integration with Google Apps means minimal integration effort and no custom code to build. The result is reduced deployment time at a lower cost. Google Apps and App Engine deployments can proceed without the usual delays associated with user provisioning and granting access privileges.
