Multi-Factor Authentication powered IdM/IAM with SecSign ID

Your users and passwords and services are all over the place? You want to simplify your security and authentication setup but you don’t know where to start? Move beyond your authentication patchwork and security mashup to a one of a kind full stack identity and access management solution that focuses on security AND usability.

The following article gives an overview on securing and simplifying user data management in one setup. This includes data like name, address, email, passwords, 2FA token, access rights, groups and more. Generally, these data are secured in user management directories like active directory, different internal directories like Atlassian, Typo3 plus additional data in clouds.

What are the advantages of an IdM/IAM Solution?

Nobody likes patchwork solutions, but finding everything you need in one single setup can be almost impossible. In order to simplify your security setup, the first step is to find out what you really need, what you have right now and how you can streamline the login and security process without risking your data.

The SecSign ID server offers intuitive user management, access management, authentication management all with a simple and sleek user interface.
You decide which data your SecSign IdM includes and manages.

Option 2: No-data solution in the cloud

The authentication server does not receive, store or manage any confidential data like user passwords, user information or similar. Users are authenticated either with a 2FA based off the cloud SecSign server, or a two-step authentication after a successful user credential login. No user credentials are transmitted during this process.

Option 3: Linking your user management system

Connect your external user directory to the on-premise server or integrate it with your cloud setup
This is possible for example by using a schema extension for your Active directory. User access data are verified against your external user management system, the cloud server doesn’t have access to or store any confidential data.
