Federated Identity Management: What Is It and Why Should You Care?
Do you know someone who needs to get up to speed on Federated Identity Management? If so, this introductory Webinar is the right place to start.
Secure Internet Single Sign-On for Enterprises
The Time is Now: The Enterprise Needs Secure Internet Single Sign-On
The pressure is on. The CISO does not want to be on the front page of the newspaper for another compromised password. The business owners want to provide direct access to their external applications. And the users are tired of remembering (and forgetting) twenty different usernames and passwords. But rumor has it that secure single sign-on over the Internet takes six to nine months to implement. If the enterprise continues to do nothing about it, a single stolen password can expose the organization’s critical information.
Where are We Now? State of the Identity Federation Market
In the last five years, the identity federation market has changed at a rapid pace. With the introduction of new technologies like on demand single sign-on (SSO) and the blurring lines of identity, it's been hard to keep up. This webinar takes a look at where we have been, where the future is leading us in the identity federation market and what this all means for service providers and enterprises. We've answer questions like:
PingConnect: On-Demand SSO and Provisioning for Salesforce CRM and Google Apps
In November 2008, Ping Identity launched PingConnect, the industry’s first on-demand single sign-on and automated provisioning service for Salesforce and Google Apps. With organizations worldwide adopting Salesforce for on-demand CRM and Google Apps for mail, Ping Identity’s new on-demand service makes it simple to connect Active Directory authentication and user management to Salesforce and Google.
The Business Value of Internet Single Sign-On
Ping Identity has been providing Internet Single Sign-on (SSO) products to the market for over five years. During that period over 290 enterprises, service providers and governmental organizations have derived significant business value using Ping Identity products to provide Internet SSO capabilities for enterprise applications, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) products like Salesforce CRM and Google Apps, partner and other third party systems, and Web Services applications.
Identity-Enabled Web Services - Securing Application Access
Web Services are becoming the leading method for application-to-application communication across corporate networks and the Internet. Until recently, proprietary end-to-end authentication and authorization schemes violated Web Services design principles and were expensive and difficult to implement and maintain. The emergence of the OASIS “WS-Security” Web Services standards have solved many of these difficulties, although implementation of Identity-Enabled Web Services can still be difficult, expensive and time consuming.
More often than not, today's economy stipulates that the lowest cost solution to satisfy a given business challenge should be utilized. When considering the options for deploying Internet Single Sign-On, User Account Management and Identity-Enabled Web Services, building an in-house solution may at first appear to be the most viable option. In actuality it could be more expensive, time consuming and risky than deploying a commercial product. Join us for a 45 minute presentation and a 15 minute Q&A session that will explore the advantages and pitfalls of various approaches to solving the Internet Identity challenge from the perspectives of standards, security, cost, risk and company policy.

Secure Single Sign-On to Citrix

Easy Endpoint Connectivity through SAML-based Internet SSO
A common challenge shared by Identity and Service Providers who have standardized on SAML technologies for Internet Single Sign-On often occurs when the "partner" side of the desired SAML connection, referred to as an "Endpoint," does not support SAML. This often requires the Endpoint partner to undertake a full-scale SAML deployment, or both partner and service provider to create and support a one-off Internet SSO connection. Ping Identity has solved this challenge with a quick, easy and inexpensive SAML support option.
