Gemalto unveils SafeNet Trusted Access to secure cloud application

Gemalto has launched SafeNet Trusted Access 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.

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 behaviour, access events and policy enforcement.

“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 Rana Gupta, Vice President – APAC Sales, Identity and Data Protection, 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.”
