Entrust, a global leader in trusted payments, identities and digital infrastructure, is now offering its cloud-based identity and access management (IAM) solution in AWS Marketplace, a digital catalogue with thousands of software listings from independent software vendors that make it easy to find, test, buy, and deploy software that runs on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Entrust Identity as a Service (IDaaS) offers a cloud-based solution that includes multi-factor authentication (MFA), passwordless login, and risk-based adaptive authentication that supports implementing a zero-trust approach to security.
Customers demand seamless experiences while also requiring organisations to secure their every interaction. In addition, rising cloud adoption and the need to support a hybrid workforce amid growing threats is accelerating implementation of zero-trust frameworks across enterprise and government environments. This framework is based on an ‘identity-first’ security approach, one that helps ensure identity and access privileges with the right level of strong authentication.
Entrust IDaaS allows organizations to quickly deploy an IAM solution for employees, customers, or end users. In order to maintain a high-security posture with a simple user experience, the solution features:
- Passwordless login to improve security and reduce friction
- Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)-based mobile smart credential login delivering high assurance authentication
- Adaptive MFA for secure access for all users
- Single Sign-On (SSO) so users can authenticate once and eliminate password fatigue
- Role-based access control (RBAC) to facilitate easy onboarding
- Simple and seamless integration through open developer tools
“Entrust Identity as a Service availability in AWS Marketplace showcases the security and scalability of the platform that complies with the strong standards and requirements set by AWS and its customers”, said James Lapalme, Vice President of Identity at Entrust. “AWS customers can help speed time to value by shortening the procurement cycle and deploying a flexible cloud-based identity and access management solution that includes industry leading adaptive multi-factor authentication and passwordless capabilities to secure access for all users”.
