Ping Identity & Google Chrome Enterprise: Seamless and Secure Authentication

Today’s workforce has evolved dramatically over the past few years. Moving from corporate office spaces to being fully remote, and now adjusting to a hybrid model, users are highly distributed and require access to meet the flexibility of each day’s workspace. While this flexibility is undoubtedly a benefit to employee satisfaction, it places added pressure on enterprises to ensure ease of access to the resources and applications needed for daily work while continuing to provide a level of security required of modern identity and browser tools.

Additionally, with application access through a browser becoming the standard for most enterprises, it is imperative for identity and access management solutions to integrate easily with browsers to provide deeper security and ensure only the right users have the right access to the tools they need. With this new paradigm of working from anywhere, it is crucial for enterprises to ensure they trust the user, the browser, and the device.

By combining Ping Identity’s best-in-class identity platform with the Chrome browser, enterprises have the tools not only to seamlessly authenticate their users but also, more importantly, to incorporate foundational elements of zero trust into their security posture.

Google and Ping Identity have collaborated together for many years to ensure enterprises can rely on our combined solutions for secure and frictionless access. As we’ve expanded our partnership and integration catalog, Ping Identity is excited about the next chapter and proud to be a Chrome Enterprise Recommended solution, highlighting our joint dedication to delivering exceptional experiences to our shared customers.

The combination of Ping Identity and Chrome Enterprise gives users the ability to authenticate directly from their ChromeOS, MacOS, or Windows device. With Ping Identity’s enterprise-proven identity and access management platform, companies can provide cross-platform access through Google’s industry-proven browser.

Joint customers greatly benefit from this partnership and integration through:

• Seamless SSO to ChromeOS devices and cross-platform support via the Chrome Browser

• Ability to reset and sync ChromeOS and Active Directory passwords

• Provisioning users to GCP through Ping Identity

• Leveraging MFA for strong authentication for Chrome Browser and ChromeOS users

• Incorporate secure device signals into authentication decisions from the Chrome Browser

By combining risk and device signals and user context information from Ping with Chrome Enterprise’s device signals, security teams now have enhanced analytics to build their policies and ensure users are authenticated, provided step-up multi-factor authentication (MFA), or denied access.  You can see a demo of the integration and learn how to configure your environment here.

In addition, users can utilize the Chrome Enterprise Device Trust connector in the PingOne DaVinci platform to connect with the Crowdstrike Falcon platform to ingest zero trust assessment scores in order to further enhance authentication decisions.
