Thales breidt mogelijkheden voor geavanceerd toegangsbeheer uit zodat klanten beter bestand zijn tegen toenemende veiligheidsrisico’s

  • Klanten van Thales SafeNet Authenticatie Service (SAS) profiteren nu van een geïntegreerde toegangsbeheer- en authenticatiedienst om de toegang tot cloudtoepassingen te beveiligen.
  • Met flexibele authenticatie- en toegangsbeheercontroles beveiligen klanten alle toegangspunten en krijgen inzicht in toegangsactiviteiten.

PARIS LA DÉFENSE–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Vanaf vandaag zijn er nieuwe mogelijkheden beschikbaar voor flexibele authenticatie, single sign on en zichtbaarheid van applicaties voor klanten van Thales’ SafeNet Authentication Service. Deze mogelijkheden zijn direct beschikbaar dankzij een automatische migratie naar SafeNet Trusted Access. Met de verbeterde mogelijkheden voor toegangsbeheer van SafeNet Trusted Access hebben organisaties meer controle over en meer inzicht in hun cloud-omgeving. Door meer veiligheid, gebruiksgemak en geautomatiseerde beveiligingsmogelijkheden kunnen dreigingen van identiteits-gerelateerde aanvallen worden verminderd.

De meerderheid (97%) van de IT-managers vindt dat het beheer van cloud-toegang noodzakelijk is om hun cloud-adoptie voort te zetten. Dit blijkt uit de Thales Access Management Index 2019. Een groot deel (94%) van hen heeft het beveiligingsbeleid op het gebied van toegangsbeheer gewijzigd als gevolg van een toenemend aantal beveiligingslekken in het afgelopen jaar.

According to the 2019 Thales Access Management Index, the majority (97%) of IT leaders believe that cloud access management is necessary to continue their cloud adoption, and almost all (94%) have changed their security policies around access management due to a rise in security breaches in the last 12 months. With adaptive authentication and flexible access management controls, CISOs and risk officers can secure all access points and gain ongoing insights into cloud and application access events. This enables their organizations to ensure trusted access, safe adoption of initiatives like BYOD adoption, comply with regulations and expand their use of secure cloud services.

SafeNet Trusted Access is a cloud-based access management solution that combines the convenience of single sign-on with granular access security, allowing organizations to simplify and protect access to web and cloud-based applications. Each time a user logs in to a cloud application, SafeNet Trusted Access validates the user’s identity, assesses which access policy should be applied, and then applies the appropriate level of authentication with Smart Single Sign-On. With better control and visibility into their cloud ecosystem, SafeNet Trusted Access helps organizations prevent data breaches, migrate to the cloud securely and simplify regulatory compliance.

“With its powerful adaptive authentication and single sign-on capabilities, SafeNet Trusted Access enable us to provide access to all of our cloud and web apps, complete with integrated cloud single-sign-on and multi-factor authentication capabilities. This removes the need for any extra administration like re-deployment or re-enrolment, and enables the easy implementation of a secure, conditional access and step-up authentication with a single integrated access management,” said Coralie Fontaine, technical leader for IT infrastructure and security at SCOTT Sports.

“Digital transformation is taking hold across organizations in every sector, but as more turn towards the cloud it is important to remember that not all cloud-based applications will have the same access protocols needed to secure these environments. As such, we have enabled SafeNet Trusted Access customers with cloud-based authentication, to build and run their business activities in a multi-cloud world while providing the out-of-the-box security, scalability and reliability to meet the evolving threat landscape,” said Francois Lasnier, Vice President for Access Management solutions at Thales.
