Denver — July 31, 2018 — Ping Identity ,the leader in Identity Defined Security, today announced that ABN Amro Bank NV has been named the winner of its 2018 Customer Identity Excellence Awards Program in the “Security Revolutionary” category. The Security Revolutionary implements unique security approaches that change the way the enterprise is secured. The awards were announced at Identiverse, which took place last month in Boston.

ABN Amro Bank NV was recognized with the “Security Revolutionary” honor for replacing a homegrown solution with PingFederate to reduce custom coding and solve its challenges around securing PSD2 APIs. By putting PingFederate in place, ABN Amro has enabled API authentication—and smartly positioned itself to be ahead of the curve on PSD2.

“It’s exciting to honor organizations like ABN Amro Bank NV in our Customer Identity Excellence Awards program. The company has set new benchmarks in improving its security processes to not only support employees, but also effectively serve its customers,” said Andre Durand, CEO of Ping Identity.
