SecureAuth IEP
SSO Services for Web Applications

Secure, Simple Sign-on for Web Applications With a Single Identity Enforcement Platform

As employees become mobile and organizations open their web applications to partners, the numbers of passwords that have to be managed grow exponentially and the need for stronger authentication becomes even more critical. Unfortunately enterprises have struggled for years to combine strong authentication and a SSO experience that enables users to sign on once using a network or desktop login and then access multiple applications without additional logins. Why? Traditional authentication solutions typically provide APIs and require complex integration. In addition to the integration effort, administrators have to manage and audit each application separately because password policies differ by application.

SecureAuth Delivers Secure, SSO to All Web Applications and Resources with Minimal Impact on IT

SecureAuth is an Identity Enforcement Platform (IEP) that secures and simplifies access to cloud, web and VPN resources with integrated 2-Factor Authentication, SSO, Access and User Management Services. For web applications, SecureAuth acts as an identity provider and controls usernames, level of authentication and other information used to identify, authenticate and authorize users. And it’s simple! A user attempts to login to a web application and a SAML authentication request is automatically redirected to SecureAuth. SecureAuth parses the request, authenticates the user to an organization’s directory (Usually Active Directory but could be any LDAP), and generates a SAML response to the ACS for verification. Once verified, the user is automatically logged in to the web application.

SecureAuth doesn’t require APIs or application modifications. With SecureAuth SSO, an administrator determines the level of authentication required and only one set of authentication credentials is needed to create a single login experience for all web applications. Furthermore, users don’t have to remember separate passwords and administrators aren’t flooded with calls to reset forgotten passwords. Plus, the same credentials support web, desktop and VPN resources. And your authentication credentials are securely stored on-premise in Microsoft Active Directory or other industry leading directories.
