Secure Access in the Cloud to All Your Applications
Collaboration Meets The Cloud
The use of outsourcing, off-shoring and contractors has reached unprecedented levels. Granting temporary, limited access to non-employees is important to your business operations. However, when contractors leave the company their access to network resources must be quickly revoked. Worse, administrators don’t want to grant someone access to the network and then forget about it.
Access Management Unified & Simplified
Governing user access from your side of the network to SaaS apps like Salesforce, Google, Taleo, Xactly and other Cloud apps is essential to protect your sensitive data.
When building on Cloud IaaS platforms like Amazon EC2, Force.com or Rackspace, Cloud developers have had to reinvent access control and SSO for each app leading to prolonged deployment times.
SinglePoint CAM uniquely secures access and maintains consistent policies across Web, SaaS, PaaS and IaaS environments resulting in improved security, reduced costs and diminished risk.
Auditing Cloud apps presents a nearly impossible task because each application has a different approach to security and logging formats are inconsistent. SinglePoint CAM solves this with its centralized access management policies and consistent audit logging.
Bridge The Enterprise To The Cloud
Enterprises have made significant investments in processes and technology to manage user access. Introducing new management and integration silos increases expense and security exposures. The answer to the challenges of bridging the enterprise to Cloud apps lies in enforcing access control.
SinglePoint’s Cloud-native lightweight virtual directory, aggregates identities from multiple directory stores, extending existing access and identity policies from inside the firewall out to the Cloud.
SinglePoint allows partners and customers to have secure access to SaaS collaboration together with on-premises Web apps, external users can also access internal apps like SharePoint.
SinglePoint ships pre-integrated with Cloud Connectors™ to the leading collaboration apps including Salesforce, Google, Box.net and Microsoft Business Office Online.
Curb Account Proliferation By Extending Windows Logins To SaaS
Single Sign-on is something users demand and the help desk enthusiastically supports.
With each new SaaS app comes a new set of credentials that have to be managed. SinglePoint allows your users to use their familiar Windows network credentials for Cloud SSO. Users log onto their Windows PC and thereafter have SSO to their SaaS applications.
SinglePoint transforms Windows desktop sessions into SAML and HTTP sessions for transparent and federated access to SaaS applications.
Control Zero-Day Access
In turbulent economic times the number of users that depart a company may increase, raising the risk of data loss and unauthorized access. Administrators may not even know what apps a user has access to making the de-provisioning effort is painful and ad hoc. Manual efforts simply cannot keep pace with so many users and identities to manage. If user accounts are not quickly disabled, or never deleted, enormous risk is introduced to your business. These so-called zombie accounts increase the possibility that a disgruntled former employee may log back on, download sales pipelines, contacts, customer lists or destroy crucial data.
This threat can be avoided by managing identity and access rights centrally in Active Directory (or another LDAP directory) extending user access policies to SaaS and Cloud apps. With this approach, de-provisioning need only be done in the central directory, thereby automating provisioning workloads and lowering risk. Automated identity and access management through SinglePoint scales to any size network.
