Beyond Identity has introduced a revolutionary, passwordless identity management solution. The company replaces passwords with trusted certificates, originally defined in public-key cryptography and ubiquitously deployed within TLS (formerly SSL). This proven, secure, and scalable approach enables Beyond Identity to eliminate passwords, reduce risk for organizations, and remove friction for end users.
“Ping Identity helps the world’s leading organizations clearly define and securely defend their modern, identity-based perimeters,” said Loren Russon, VP of Product Management at Ping Identity. “Ping Identity customers are interested in removing passwords and providing end users with a more seamless and secure authentication experience. We welcome Beyond Identity into our world-class network of partners and look forward to collaborating on delivering secure and seamless digital experiences to global enterprises that are providing secure and simple user experiences to their onsite and remote workforces.”
Unlike other authentication methods, Beyond Identity increases both usability and security simultaneously. The company’s cloud-native platform, Beyond Identity for Workforces, integrates with PingFederate as a delegate identity provider replacing passwords with fundamentally secure asymmetric-key cryptography and X.509 certificates. Beyond Identity provides a signed, immutable record of each login transaction for audit and compliance purposes, including who accessed the application, from which device, and real-time device security posture information for contextual, risk-based authentication. Employing standard OpenID Connect flows and offering support for SAML and SCIM, Beyond Identity enables rapid integration of the passwordless experience into PingFederate.
Through its Technology Alliance Program (TAP), Ping Identity collaborates with other security leaders to ensure any enterprise can federate identity and access across their organization by providing comprehensive, seamlessly integrated solutions. The TAP program enables collaboration between Ping Identity and top-tier technology companies to solve unique identity and access management (IAM) challenges, increase the effectiveness of existing IAM products, and take advantage of emerging technologies.
Together, Beyond Identity and Ping Identity are providing enterprises with:
