Old Technology Can’t Support Your New Challenges

As US federal agencies face an unprecedented surge in identity-based cyberattacks, phishing to sophisticated nation-state intrusions, the limitations of legacy identity, credential, and access management (ICAM) tools have become a critical national security risk. With an increasingly remote workforce, expanding reliance on cloud services, and the need to securely connect with mission partners, agencies are struggling to enforce consistent, real-time identity security. Outdated systems simply cannot defend against today’s threat landscape or support the rapid adoption of FedRAMP-authorized cloud services and Iron Bank secure software container offerings, leaving gaps that adversaries are actively exploiting.

At the same time, the ever-present threat of bad actors looking to compromise government and private sector networks reveals growing gaps in agencies’ federal Identity, Credential and Access Management (ICAM) programs. To address these new and evolving challenges, many agencies are moving towards a Zero Trust security posture in which you assume a state of breach, there is no implicit network trust and all access requests are verified based on dynamic context and risk. This transformation requires that you establish an identity-centric control plane for access security.

Build the Foundation for Zero Trust Security

item-1-description

Zero Trust requires strict identity verification for every person and device trying to access resources on a private network, regardless of whether they’re sitting within or outside of the network perimeter. Your workforce authentication authority from Ping delivers an identity control plane so you can secure access for every user population, asset, environment and endpoint across your hybrid, multi-cloud and on prem architectures.

Prevent Identity Silos

item-3-description

Cloud shouldn’t be viewed as a separate component of your IT architecture, and it definitely shouldn’t require new cloud identities for your users. You don’t need more identity silos; you need a single source of truth that gives you the ability to manage identities and access with a cloud identity control plane. Ping’s cloud-based workforce authentication authority solution lets you break down the identity silos and overcome hybrid IT challenges.

• Gateway and agent-based deployment options

Credential Management

We integrate with authoritative PIV and CAC credential management data sources and can connect with automated identity and access lifecycle management systems. We also support standards-based verifiable credentials.

Governance

• Access request workflows with automated provisioning
• Access review certification management
• Separation of duties checks and enforcement
• Analytics and Reporting

FICAM is the Federal Government’s implementation of Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM). ICAM is the set of tools, policies, and systems that an agency uses to enable the right individual to access the right resource, at the right time, for the right reason in support of federal business objectives.
