Ping Identity Launches New Cloud Deployment Offerings to Fast Track Migration to Modern IAM
DENVER — November 29, 2017
Ping Identity, the leader in Identity Defined Security, today announced new capabilities in its Ping Identity Platform to help global enterprises streamline the migration to modern IAM in today’s hybrid IT environment. Enterprises today require more flexible deployment options, higher resiliency and scalability to support the business demands of increased uptime and security. With these in mind, today’s announcement includes enhancements to PingAccess, best practice migration services from legacy solutions, and new capabilities in PingID.
Automate Cloud Deployment for Large Enterprise
Today’s large enterprises need high levels of control, customization, scale and performance when it comes to their identity security solutions. Add to this the fact that they don’t have the time or access to scarce resources to manage it all themselves. This is where global enterprises can benefit from Ping Identity’s leadership in both cloud-based Identity-as-a-Service (IDaaS) offerings and on-premises software. The company’s strength in this area is further reinforced with the new ability to cloud automate the deployment of PingAccess in Amazon Web Services.
PingAccess, which is part of the Ping Identity Platform, helps secure modern applications and APIs with a range of centralized authorization policies and advanced session management control. Large enterprises can efficiently deploy the product into their own AWS environments. Customizable templates and scripts help automate thousands of manual steps and activities, allowing organizations to gain the following additional capabilities:
Accelerate Adoption of Modernized Access Management
Ping Identity is also launching a set of migration tools, best practices and services designed to streamline and accelerate the migration away from legacy WAM products to PingAccess. The PingAccess Solution Accelerator helps guide IAM professionals through the process of unwinding many years of legacy WAM operational processes and integrations. This is designed to make the transition as seamless and secure as possible. Harnessing knowledge and expertise from prior enterprise migration efforts, the PingAccess Solution Accelerator captures best practices and makes them actionable for customers--so they can move to a modern access management solution, including the option to deploy to on-premises or cloud environments.
Leverage Offline Multi-Factor Authentication Support
PingID is a cloud-based service for Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for organizations seeking to balance strong authentication with user convenience via a customizable and brandable mobile or desktop app. Enterprises require extremely high availability and reliability when it comes to authenticating and logging into their applications. PingID now offers offline MFA capabilities so that organizations can continue to enforce strong authentication, even in situations where there is a lose in internet connectivity. Whether the disruption is due to an internet provider issue, natural disaster or other scenario, the latest release of PingID helps ensure a dependable, convenient way to authenticate via a cloud-based service.
“It can be difficult for enterprises to migrate away from a legacy system that they’ve used and trusted for years,” says Loren Russon, Vice President, Products, Ping Identity. “This is where Ping Identity excels for its customers by continuously innovating to keep their businesses competitive. With these latest enhancements, we’re not only providing flexible cloud deployment options and migration tools to support that transition, but also making offline multi-factor authentication available to help ensure uptime is never disrupted.”
