Challenge

Sara has a complex network of diverse audiences (from doctors to car repair shops) with multiple offerings. The company needed to protect these users while providing a pleasant experience.

Results

Ping provides invaluable insights into user activities, enabling proactive threat detection and response. With real-time monitoring capabilities, Sara’s IT team can swiftly identify and mitigate potential security risks, safeguarding the integrity of their systems and data.

Objective

In the bustling realm of insurance, secure yet efficient access to information and applications is essential to success. Additionally, insurers need to combat fraud, meet regulatory requirements, protect privacy and deliver innovative and customized solutions to its various users. Italy’s leading insurer, Sara Assicurazioni, is migrating from a legacy identity platform to Ping Identity in order to meet these goals.

Challenge

With a diverse set of insurance offerings, Sara Assicurazioni has a complex employee and partner community that help support those offerings, including full-time employees, doctors, car repair shops and more. The organisation saw that in the near future, its existing IAM platform would struggle with flexibility, scale, evolving security requirements and would ultimately hinder innovation. In order to stay on the leading edge of identity, which keeps employees and partners happy while protecting them against ever-increasing cyber threats, Sara Assicurazioni decided to retire its existing infrastructure and upgrade to Ping’s modern and powerful identity platform.

As Italy’s leading insurer, it is our job to keep our employees and partners happy through exceptional digital experiences. We also need to protect them as well as our company against fraud and bad actors. As such, identity is a top priority for us and we must have the absolute best identity platform in place. After extensive searching, we are sure that Ping will provide the technology and partnership we need to meet these ambitious yet critical goals.
