Licensing of Passlogix v-GO SSO will extend capabilities of RSA(R) Sign-On
Manager with enterprise single sign-on
BEDFORD, Mass., and NEW YORK, June 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- RSA
Security Inc. (Nasdaq: RSAS) and Passlogix, Inc. today announced the two
companies have entered into a long-term strategic partnership. RSA Security
has licensed Passlogix's industry leading v-GO Single Sign-On (SSO) technology
as a component of RSA(R) Sign-On Manager, a new Secure Enterprise Access
solution that integrates RSA Security's best-of-breed strong authentication
technologies with Enterprise SSO (see related June 7, 2004 press release).
RSA Sign-On Manager delivers single sign-on to most major application types
without requiring any modification, integration, scripting or agents. The new
solution helps customers to reduce help desk costs, improve enterprise
security and increase end user satisfaction.
Secure Enterprise Access is an integral part of RSA Security's overall
Identity and Access Management strategy. RSA Sign-On Manager customers can
manage multiple digital identities, and then leverage their investment to
further expand their identity management infrastructure with other RSA
Security solutions including RSA SecurID(R) two-factor authentication, RSA
ClearTrust(R) web access management software and RSA Keon(R) technology. RSA
Sign-On Manager delivers enterprise-class policy and credential management,
IntelliAccess(TM) technology -- a new secure self-service emergency access and
password reset capability -- and scalability to tens of thousands of users.
"RSA Security is focused on providing Secure Enterprise Access solutions
that save our customers time, money and resources, while enhancing security
and protection of sensitive information," said Jason Lewis, vice president of
product management and marketing at RSA Security. "The market acceptance for
Passlogix v-GO SSO technology made them a solid choice in partners to help RSA
Security round out the broad benefits we can deliver through RSA Sign-On
Manager."
Passlogix v-GO SSO applies patented client-side intelligence that coupled
with any of a wide range of authentication methods -- including passwords, RSA
SecurID(R) authenticators, an RSA(R) Smart Card, an RSA(R) USB Authenticator,
RSA Keon(R) digital certificates (or any X.509 certificate), or a fingerprint-
based biometric -- enables users to securely and seamlessly connect to
virtually any Microsoft(R) Windows(R) client/server, web or mainframe
application without having to re-enter any user ID or password.
"We are excited to work with RSA Security, the leading strong
authentication vendor, to address the emerging customer requirement for strong
authentication to any kind of enterprise application," said Marc Boroditsky,
president & CEO at Passlogix. "Their selection of v-GO SSO technology further
confirms Passlogix's position as the market leader in enterprise single sign-
on."
