MultiFactor SecureAuth announces the first and only integrated 2-factor authentication solution that enables an enterprise to become an instant identity provider (IdP) for cloud based applications such as Google Docs and Salesforce CRM. SecureAuth empowers enterprises with full identity and access control for both traditional on premise applications as well as secure cloud computing offerings.

Features include self-provisioning 2-Factor authentication, user profile management, password management and help desk tools. Administrators have the option to enable single credential and/or two-factor single sign on (SSO) for any application on a per application basis. SecureAuth can even be configured to allow for a secure 2-factor re-authentication to take place during each successive sign-on which is transparent to the end user, allowing for the best possible solution in both security and user experience.

“Enterprises already have a directory store, like Active Directory”, says MultiFactor CTO Garret Grajek, “what they need is a tool like SecureAuth to securely extend those identities from the enterprise to the cloud.”

SecureAuth is based on the concept of zero-integration and maintenance and has been designed from the start to operate in a “web 2.0” world.

SecureAuth requires no APIs for integration into applications or existing directory stores. Schema changes and directory plug-ins are not necessary.

“An existing on premise directory and a Google Apps enterprise account are all that is required to secure Google Docs as a virtual extension of an enterprise” continues Grajek, ”No other solution can do that and allow for that same service to any other application or VPN.”

MultiFactor Corporation (MFC) develops and markets a secure authentication product suite called SecureAuth. It provides cost effective identity enforcement and single sign on for web applications, cloud applications and computer networks like Cisco and Juniper.

SecureAuth has native integration into most applications and platforms including mobile platforms like iPhone. Further value comes from the product’s ability to securely enforce strong identity simultaneously to multiple applications on various platforms, including applications distributed across the internet. The company is headquartered in Irvine, CA.
