NetIQ has announced CloudAccess 1.1 which is single sign-on virtual appliance that enables IT teams to more quickly and easily manage the onslaught of cloud applications and services in a controlled, secure and automated manner. By delivering a consistent single sign-on experience to users, protecting corporate data and helping meet compliance demands, CloudAccess 1.1 facilitates additional business-enabling opportunities cloud services afford, without the management complexity and security risks associated with ad-hoc access controls.
CloudAccess 1.1 is a self-contained virtual appliance that enables the IT team to extend the user’s single sign-on experience to SaaS or other cloud applications while keeping access secure.
Unlike other Cloud single sign-on products, CloudAccess 1.1 also includes an advanced provisioning engine that will automatically create, manage and disable accounts on supported applications. As users onboard, change roles, require additional access or depart the business, CloudAccess 1.1 ensures that IT can secure and manage access to Cloud-based applications to prevent unauthorized access to services and meet governance requirements.
“Prior to CloudAccess 1.1, existing approaches to managing user access to external resources was a difficult and manual process – made even more complex in light of the demands of today’s dynamic organizations,” said, Kent Purdy, Solution Marketing Manager at NetIQ.
CloudAccess 1.1 is generally available worldwide and offered on a subscription basis or perpetual license.
