Secure Cloud Access

Cloud Based Access Control for SaaS Applications

When data and applications move to the cloud, user access—by default —takes place remotely. Organizations therefore have to implement user access controls for enterprise resources residing both in the cloud and within the confines of the data center. With enterprise security perimeters becoming increasingly blurry, organizations are having difficulty affording, implementing and managing consistent, unified access policies to distributed IT resources.

Secure Cloud Access from Thales

Thales' SafeNet Authentication and Access Management Solutions overcome these challenges by allowing organizations to seamlessly extend secure access to the cloud through identity federation. Thales' platforms leverage organizations’ existing authentication infrastructures, allowing them to extend users’ on-premises identities to the cloud and enabling them to implement consistent access control policies for both cloud and network applications.
