The OneSign Platform
Imprivata OneSign is an easy, smart and affordable appliance that provides breakthrough user authentication and access management to IT networks, applications and Building / IT security. OneSign helps organizations improve security access management and compliance, while maximizing user convenience and productivity.
The beauty of the OneSign Platform is that it integrates the historically complex, fragmented aspects of your corporate security strategy with one appliance-based approach. OneSign seamlessly integrates strong authentication, application single sign-on, physical access control, and event reporting to provide one enterprise-wide automated employee information access policy managed and enforced within a single, easy to use administrative framework. Whether you have 200 or 200,000 employees, the OneSign Platform effortlessly solves some of the most critical security, regulatory and convenience issues:
- COMPLIANCE: You need visibility into the who, what, where and when of employee access activity. When did an employee enter a facility or room, when did they logon to the network, what applications did they access and when did they exit? With OneSign, all this identity-centric access data is centrally captured and provided in standard reports with the push of a button to easily address regulatory compliance mandates and audit needs.
- CONVENIENCE: The average employee has between 12-15 different applications that they access in their daily course of business. Each application may require a separate password which must then be changed on a regular basis. The net result is that password management adds up to huge headaches and frustration. And, with studies consistently showing that over 60% of all IT Help Desk calls are password related, the need for change is eminant. OneSign helps to eliminate the password management problem, directly increasing security, while improving user convenience and productivity and reducing Help Desk support costs.
- CONVERGENCE: Companies have multiple silos of security. By centrally mapping an employee's multiple corporate IT and physical security identities with their respective access policies and events, OneSign confirms an employee's physical location, validates their identity, dynamically enforces and enables information access policy, and then reports all access events in real-time. By leveraging all of an organizations existing access systems, OneSign provides a significantly enhanced and holistic security infrastructure.
Purpose-built for rapid enterprise deployment, OneSign's appliance-based approach dramatically minimizes implementation time, infrastructure needs, and installation costs - accelerating your return on investment and lowering your on-going support costs. The OneSign Platform also integrates with systems you already have in place, leveraging and extending the value of your existing investments in security throughout the enterprise.
The platform consists of three specific modules that can be licensed individually or as one complete solution. Our flexible, affordable approach allows you to adopt the right level of security for your organization at just the right time - all with a simple licence key upgrade.
- OneSign Authentication Management replaces Windows and remote access VPN passwords with a broad range of strong authentication options, including integrated management for One-Time Password (OTP) tokens, finger biometrics, smartcards, proximity cards and building access cards. With OneSign, you can mix and match various authentication modalities to suit user needs regardless of whether accessing the network locally, via remote VPN, or while working offline.
- OneSign Single Sign-On quickly and effectively solves password management, security and user access issues for employees by enabling SSO for ALL applications - legacy, client/server, Windows, JAVA, and web - without requiring any custom scripting, modifications to existing directories, or inconvenient end-user workflow changes.
- OneSign Physical/Logical integrates network and building access systems to provide a single consolidated user identity. Organizations can now implement one comprehensive, converged policy for allowing or denying network access based on a user's physical location, role, and/or employee status.
OneSign is shipped as a redundant hardware pair - there is nothing else to buy, install or maintain.Imprivata's scalable web service-based architecture gets you up and running quickly and easily, without the complexity and costs associated with buying, implementing, and managing independent and non-integrated alternatives. And, Imprivata's distributed management and failover architecture ensures that your identity information can follow you anywhere in the enterprise while providing built-in business failover, continuity and disaster recovery capabilities.
The power of OneSign is that it's ALL in the box.
