SecureAuth IEP Extends Strong Authentication, SSO and IdM Services to Salesforce CRM and Force.com Applications From Your Directory
In just 10 years, salesforce.com grew into a $1 billion business and enjoys the #1 position for cloud-computing CRM, with 77,300 customers and over 53% market share. However, the challenge for the enterprise has been to deliver a user validation system for Salesforce applications that provide the user identity to the trusting resource, in a deployable and secure manner. This has created a governance gap that potentially makes these enterprises non-compliant with legal, regulatory or internal governance policies and susceptible to modern identity theft attacks such as man-in-the-middle, phishing, replay, and DNS attacks. In addition, enterprise customers want to enable single sign on (SSO) and often 2-Factor authentication to Salesforce applications while maintaining control of their own user identities and method of authentication. To support this functionality, Salesforce enables enterprises to control authentication using the Security Access Markup Language (SAML) protocol. Conversely, becoming an identity provider (IdP) and integrating your environment using SAML can be expensive and requires changes to your environment that leave you with a proprietary solution to maintain.
