RoboForm Enterprise Password Management Application is Easier to Implement
than SSO, Eliminates Enterprise Risks Posed by Typical SSO Central Password
Database
FAIRFAX, Va., April 7, 2008 /PRNewswire/ -- Siber Systems, Inc., a
company dedicated to providing world-class computing productivity software
for enterprises and individuals, today announced it will exhibit its
breakthrough password management solution, RoboForm Enterprise, at RSA
Conference USA 2008 in San Francisco, April 7-11. RoboForm Enterprise
provides an improved, client-based strategy for Single Sign-On (SSO) that
circumvents many of the problems associated with SSO technologies such as
challenging implementation regimens and vulnerabilities to attack at a
central password database.
RoboForm Enterprise is a cost effective, easy and secure solution that
protects multiple user passwords in a highly secure software "vault." The
application securely stores employee usernames, passwords and other
confidential information using powerful AES encryption and a user-defined
master password. RoboForm Enterprise offers multiple advantages over SSO
solutions including:
-- Easy Implementation. RoboForm eliminates the considerable task of
assembling a central SSO password database. The RoboForm installer is
compatible with most automated software install programs, making it
easy to deploy on hundreds or even thousands of PCs.
-- Flexibility for Administrators. Administrators can fully customize
every feature to meet specific corporate security and password
standards. URLs can be white- or black-listed; unlike standard SSO
solutions, RoboForm easily supports both internal and external
passwords.
-- Security for Everyone. SSO's require that passwords be stored in a
central database, making the entire enterprise vulnerable to a single
point of attack. RoboForm's distributed solution eliminates this risk
while also protecting identities, passwords and corporate data using
AES with a user-defined master password as the key.
-- Productivity for End Users. Users memorize only one master password.
RoboForm Enterprise remembers all the rest, and provides true automated
logins.
-- Cost Effective for the Bottom Line. Intuitive interface, online help,
and no server component means RoboForm provides an immediate ROI via
increased employee productivity and reduced helpdesk calls.
"RoboForm has all the benefits of Single Sign-On without all the
negatives," said Bill Carey, Siber Systems VP of Marketing. "Unlike other
SSO solutions, RoboForm Enterprise is easy to deploy, easy to implement,
and completely customizable -- plus we have a trial version so IT
professionals can test it first. We've eliminated all risk."
Study Available
Siber Systems recently released a survey report entitled "Password
Management Survey: IT Managers Respond to the Impact of Password Policies
on Security and Productivity." The study found that U.S. workers, managers,
and IT staffs alike are increasingly confronted with difficulties arising
from computer passwords.
Siber Systems' report, which reflects the input from 617 IT
professionals from all levels and disciplines, detailed the distressing
state of password protection in the modern enterprise. Over half of all
respondents said the average employee in their firms is required to
remember three to five passwords, with an additional 26% saying the number
ranges from six to ten or more. Nearly half said that employees are
required to use passwords more than 25 times per week; 66% stated that
employees write down or store passwords in unsafe places, creating a
security problem for their companies.
According to the survey findings, one-third of companies surveyed plan
on implementing a new or improved password management solution before the
end of calendar year 2008. "RoboForm Enterprise is solving one of the most
difficult problems companies face today -- protecting corporate data
through increased password security -- at a fraction of the cost and risk
of typical SSO solutions," stated Carey.
