NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - January 27, 2010) - IntraLinks®, the leading provider of critical
information exchange solutions, today announced it will leverage Ping Identity Corporation's PingFederate® solution for secure Internet single sign-on
(SSO) and cross-domain user management to simplify the user experience.
The SSO solution is currently being used in limited release by a leading
Japanese internet financial service group. This single sign-on framework
will be used to support additional customers, as well as for IntraLinks'
own internal needs.
"Single sign-on works behind the scenes to authenticate each user so they
can securely access all of their IntraLinks Exchanges without the headache
of remembering multiple passwords and log-ins," said John Landy, CTO of
IntraLinks. "By working together with Ping Identity, our customers
worldwide will benefit from increased ease of use and seamless access to
their most mission-critical information without sacrificing the security of
their data."
IntraLinks was able to quickly and easily deploy PingFederate thanks to its
pre-designed connection templates and automated user provisioning for SaaS
applications. IntraLinks holds a patent on the use of single sign-on
technology for accessing online information on a permissioned basis.
"Customers across a broad range of industries use Ping Identity's SAML standards-based solutions to eliminate burdensome
passwords, increase user adoption, improve security and reduce
administrative overhead," said Mike Desai, Director of Business Development
and Strategic Cloud Alliances for Ping Identity. "We are thrilled to have
IntraLinks as one of our highly valued SaaS Partner
Program members, supporting them with a streamlined approach to secure
single sign-on for their customer base."
