Provides centralized
authentication for applications
UserAuthority captures
authentication information from multiple sources
within an organization -for example, VPN-1/FireWall-1
and Windows NT- and makes that information available
to applications. Applications are able to make
intelligent authorization decision based on this
centralized authentication information without
having to re-authenticate users. For application
developers, leveraging existing authentication
sources simplifies the process of creating secure
applications and eliminates the need to create
redundant databases of user authentication information.
Enables a single sign-on
for multiple applications
Application users benefit
with UserAuthority because a single authentication
is all that is required to access all business
critical applications. UserAuthority eliminates
the need for users to remember multiple passwords,
or store multiple digital certificates, tokens,
etc., because authentication information is captured
and made available to all UserAuthority-enabled
applications.
Add-on functionality
to Check Point VPN-1/FireWall-1
As organizations provide
broader access to their enterprise applications,
properly securing those applications becomes more
and more critical. To ensure the highest levels
of security, state-of-the-art security products
and technologies must be used. VPN-1/FireWall-1
is a market-proven, state-of-the-art security
platform which, when combined with UserAuthority,
extends the highest levels of security to enterprise
application authentication. |
