Calligo, the most technically advanced and comprehensive offshore cloud service provider, today announced a partnership with OneLogin, the innovator in identity management, to deliver single sign-on for its CalligoCloud users.
As cloud and other hosted services become more prevalent in organisations, there is a need to address the challenge caused by users having multiple accounts. OneLogin addresses this by extending enterprise security and compliance to cloud deployments. OneLogin integrates any number of Active Directory and LDAP directories, and presents them as a single directory to web applications. This centralises identity administration, enforces multi-factor authentication and improves cloud application security.
Nick Arnold, Chief Security Officer, Calligo commented “We are delighted to partner with OneLogin to deliver secure SSO to all web applications, both on-premise and in the cloud. This technology extends and enhances traditional on-premise security tools to manage the widest range of cloud and hosted services”.
OneLogin supports the widest range of international standards, and has 12 million licensed users in 35 countries across the globe. Its cloud-based identity access management (IAM) product offers simple SSO, making it easier for companies to secure and manage access to web applications. As part of the OneLogin product, the company also handles IAM challenges like directory integration, provisioning and strong authentication. This approach helps companies overcome some of the time and cost hurdles that have stopped IAM projects in their tracks, or led to significant additional costs being incurred.
“We are delighted to partner with Calligo. As an innovative cloud service provider, they are at the leading-edge of technology and their offshore cloud services are delivering significant value to their clients. By adding OneLogin to their portfolio, Calligo is providing secure and accelerated access to cloud applications,” stated Elias Terman, vice president product marketing, OneLogin.
