We were named a Leader in the 2021 Gartner MQ for Access Management. Get the Report Access Security Secure access to apps and APIs to protect resources across your enterprise READ THE GUIDE SEE THE SOLUTION Don't Compromise Security You need to give your workforce, partners and customers digital access to resources, but you also need to keep those resources secure. The complexity and on-premises requirements of legacy web access management (WAM) systems combined with the limitations of API gateways make it hard to do either. A modern access security solution gives you centralized management and enforcement of policies based on user and device context to ensure that only authorized users get access to resources. READ THE GARTNER REPORT Risk-defined Authorization There are different levels of risk associated with the services and data to which applications and APIs provide access. Even within individual resources, certain URLs and transaction types contain different risk profiles. Other considerations include environmental risks such as geolocation and IP address, user risks like group membership and seniority, and device risks such as device health and reputation. You can improve security by leveraging identity attributes and other contextual data to ensure users are authorized to access only the right resources under the right circumstances. One Place to Manage Access for Hybrid IT Enterprises are hosting applications on-premises, in private and public clouds, or in a hybrid mix of it all. Some organizations have legacy WAM systems built to protect on-premises applications but not those hosted in the cloud. Without a modern access security solution, you could end up with disconnected, uncoordinated policies and sessions, which could increase the risk of errors or vulnerabilities. You need a way to centralize policy management and provide users with secure access to all applications, regardless of where those apps are deployed. APIs Need Access Security Too Secure access shouldn’t stop at the application level. APIs are opening up access to valuable data and services that should have the same level of access control as your organization’s web applications. To secure access to both, you need a comprehensive policy engine that uses contextual policies, which can better identify a client’s risk profile before granting it access to sensitive information through an API. Flexible Access for Today and Tomorrow Legacy WAM systems weren’t designed to support the complex requirements of today’s enterprises. These proprietary solutions lack the flexibility to integrate new technologies, resulting in complicated architectures that are slow and costly to maintain. Adding support for new architectures and protocols requires an access security solution that leverages your current investments while also taking advantage of the latest technologies. Modern access management solutions were designed to work with legacy WAM systems to enhance security, centralize management and improve system performance. Using modern access control, organizations can support both legacy and modern applications, while architecting the infrastructure to meet their needs either in the cloud or on-premises. WGU Learns Simple, Policy-controlled Access OPPORTUNITY To connect to a variety of new and old technology applications, Western Governors University (WGU) needed to replace OpenSSO in order to support modern protocols including SAML and OpenID Connect. They also needed to protect both APIs and applications through a single access gateway. RESULT WGU found the PingOne Cloud Platform to be superior in performance and lower in admin overhead than any other solution evaluated. It’s able to provide the simple access to applications that users want and the controlled access to resources that policy demands.
