Ramp Up Security and Productivity With Cloud MFA & SSO

Enterprise security is a constantly shifting battlefield. Organizations are asked to defend against attacks and mitigate risks inside and outside their corporate perimeters, all while providing users access to a constantly growing application portfolio from anywhere on any device. This has resulted in a growing number of vulnerabilities, including multiple sets of credentials, a dispersed workforce that increases the need for VPN access (a.k.a. network-based trust), and the use of personal devices to access corporate resources.

What’s more, friction introduced by password, device and location challenges frustrates users, decreases their productivity, and increases administrative burden. It is no wonder that 72% of users reuse passwords and 26% will even write their passwords down on paper, according to the Ponemon Institute’s “The 2019 State of Password and Authentication Security Behaviors Report.”

IT teams have the daunting task of fortifying their organization’s security posture without harming user and admin productivity. They need a cloud identity and access management (IAM) solution that cost-effectively mitigates the security concerns mentioned above, improves user productivity, and is simple enough for generalists to integrate and manage.

Every single application with its own set of credentials in your portfolio exposes you to increased risk of breach, account takeover or unauthorized access to sensitive data. By using Ping, you don’t have to vet and trust the authentication setup within each app, because Ping does the work for you. With Ping’s cloud multi-factor authentication (MFA) & single sign-on (SSO) bundle, you can grant access to your entire application portfolio with a centralized authentication authority that increases security based on context. Your users no longer have to remember multiple passwords, and authentication flows can be standardized for all applications.

PingID and PingOne for Enterprise are complementary solutions that, together, provide the increased protection organizations need while simplifying experiences for users and admins alike. These cost-effective cloud solutions are simple to deploy and manage—and they won’t drain IT resources. In fact, they will lift the burden on the IT helpdesk through user self-service options for registration and authenticationmethod selection, while improving user productivity through seamless access to any application they need. And all this happens while you drastically improve your organization’s security posture. The Ping Intelligent Identity platform can handle any complex use case or enterprise requirement, so adopting Ping’s cloud MFA and SSO solution means that you are covered for any eventuality.
 

PingID allows organizations to optimize the balance of security and convenience with a cloud-delivered, adaptive MFA solution. It enables you to implement strong authentication in less than 5 minutes, with intuitive options for configuration and branding within desktop and mobile apps as well as UIs and push notifications. PingID also provides multiple self-service options to reduce the burden on administrators and help desk employees. To simplify the initial setup, PingID integrates easily with your VPN, cloud apps, Windows login, RDP, SSH and more.
 

PingID can authenticate your user’s access through a variety of methods 

Adaptive Authentication and Security

When Necessary By applying a risk-based model to multi-factor authentication, you can dynamically assess if a user should take further steps to prove their identity. This risk-based assessment can be triggered by a variety of contextual factors, from IP address reputation and device posture to geolocation and geo-velocity. For example, if your user authenticates in the United States and then authenticates from Russia without enough time to account for travel, they will be flagged as a risk and asked to authenticate with another unique factor.
 

Embed MFA in your Own Mobile App for a Customizable, Branded Customer Experience

The PingID SDK allows you to rapidly embed MFA in your existing app to verify access, transactions and more without deviating from your brand standards or asking users to download a separate application.

PingOne for Enterprise provides one-click access for any user on any device to their applications. You can easily set up and integrate the solution with existing user identity stores like Active Directory in less than 5 minutes. And Ping’s robust application catalog and integration wizard makes connecting popular SaaS applications like Office 365 and Salesforce painless. PingOne for Enterprise drastically improves the user experience of logging in and solves persistent user and administrator password challenges for good.
 

Get in, test it, deploy it, DONE.

Whether you’re considering an upgrade from legacy MFA and SSO systems, or adding these controls as net new security measures, you’ll want to make sure you can rapidly deploy these capabilities where necessary.
