Gemalto, a player in digital security, has launched CloudEntr, the new service aimed at helping enterprises manage user identities while enabling secure single-sign-on (SSO) access to web-based applications.
CloudEntr allows users to gain convenient access to all their web-based applications by authenticating just once with a unique log-in credential. With CloudEntr businesses are also able to smoothly transition from weak
user-selected passwords to stronger protection, through complex passwords that don’t need to be remembered or two-factor authentication capabilities, including mobile one-time-passwords (OTP).
Gemalto’s solution claims that it allows IT managers to reduce time spent to gain visibility on account provisioning, enforcing password policy and better handling overall password related support services. The company believes that CloudEntr provides an easy way to assign or remove employee access to business applications that saves significant time and enhances business continuity when organizational or workflow changes take place.
“CloudEntr enables businesses to better manage how employees are accessing web-based business applications for a more efficient IT management, as well as offering users a multi-channel and convenient way to benefit from password best-practices,” said François Lasnier, Senior Vice President of Identity and Access. “This new IDaaS offer from Gemalto capitalizes on more than 30 years of experience in digital security, and our long-standing history of enabling trusted services for enterprises and governments.”
