Forrester Names Symplified a Leader in Cloud Identity, Access Management

- Alert) alternatives to on-premises monolithic IAM offerings. Leaders in this market offer SaaS application access control and will continue to have a positive impact by expanding strong authentication, provisioning and attestation capabilities,” analysts wrote in the report. “Symplified provides great access control to SaaS applications. It has its own IP-based solution, which is one of the longest-standing in the cloud IAM market.”

As on-premises IAM solutions mature, according to Forrester, cost savings will dictate which providers will lead the pack. In its evaluation of the six service providers in the cloud IAM category, Forrester touted Symplified for its architectural stability and protocol and endpoint support.

“(Symplified) offers good architectural stability through its Identity Router customer-premises equipment infrastructure, which can be deployed as a software or hardware appliance or as a cloud connector,” the report said. “Symplified offers broad protocol and endpoint support, and it partners with Symantec’s VIP service for strong authentication as well as CSC (News - Alert) for reseller and system integration.”

Symplified is a “pioneer” of cloud-based Single Sign-On (SSO) offering SAML-as-a-Service federation capability since 2006, according to Eric Olden, CEO of Symplified.

“We believe that being recognized as a Leader in Cloud IAM by Forrester further validates our position in the market,” Olden said. “Symplified is leading the way in making cloud SSO secure, simple and seamless – enabling enterprises to better navigate the challenges of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies and the proliferation of both public and private cloud-based services and applications.”

Earlier this year, Symplified announced the availability of Symplified Structure, which allows service providers, telcos and cloud application hosting companies to integrate identity and access management (IAM) across their suite of cloud services, MSP News™ reported.

Symplified Structure is built on the company’s IAM platform and can be bundled or embedded into any service provider datacenter and private-label branded. The service can be delivered via the Symplified Trust Cloud that is hosted on the Amazon Web Services (News

LexisNexis Unveils Identity Theft Protection Programs

By Steve Anderson, Contributing TMCnet Writer

LexisNexis (News - Alert) Risk Solutions today unveiled a pair of new Multi-Factor Authentication systems geared toward keeping identities safe from theft across a variety of channels. With identity theft case numbers growing at an alarming rate, and a series of high-profile attacks recently occurring, the need for improved systems in identity protection is clear and present.

LexisNexis was already well-known for its slate of identity protection systems, such as the Flex ID system, the Instant Authenticate system, and TrueID, a system that required fingerprint biometrics to fully accept an identity. LexisNexis then stepped up the game twofold with the introduction of its two newest systems.

First, it introduced the One Time Password system, in which a single-use alphanumeric code was sent to a user's device of choice that had been previously determined. The code could be sent via SMS text message, by phone, or by email for use at the location needed.

Then, the company brought out the Voice Biometrics system, which serves as a voiceprint identification system using key features of a speaker's voice. Voiceprint authentication features depend on portions of a speakers voice that are every bit as unique as those of a fingerprint, and allow for very stringent identity verification.

LexisNexis will be offering both One Time Password and Voice Biometrics as part of its IVR On Demand systems. And while the IVR On Demand system is itself a potent application, it's not the end of LexisNexis' offerings, rather just the beginning. LexisNexis offers a variety of services in investigation, screenings, fraud detection, and receivables management as well, giving a wide field of potential users the best possible chance to find and prevent fraud, identity theft, and other problems before they become serious issues.

Given that the Javelin Strategy and Research firm's annual Identity Fraud Report puts the total amount of fraud committed in 2011 at $18 billion, it should be clear why a vigorous and vigilant response to the issue is required. Multiple forms of user authentication will go a long way toward protecting valuable information from unauthorized access, and eventual use.
