The combined Safewhere Access Management suite delivers a full featured solution for multisource authentication, cross domain authorization, and resource centric access control for web and services architectures.
Today's Internet-centered business solutions are built to reach ever wider and more disparate audiences. One particular challenge severely limiting their reach is the on-boarding of users and subsequent management of authorizations and enforcement of access control. Without a clean and effective means to address these issues, businesses forego new revenue, or get it only at a very high cost and complexity of implementation and administration.
The full Safewhere suite provides both infrastructure and administration facilities to effectively remove the aspect of user administration, authentication, authorization, and access control from applications, and put it into the infrastructure. This approach ensures that the whole issue of who should get access, under which circumstances, and to which functionality and content becomes a business and operations task. This greatly simplifies application development and ensures a consistent and centralized approach to these important security challenges.
