"One for all!." or single system of authentication

Using several applications, the companies face a problem that each service has the authentication system. As a result each employee needs to remember, first, many difficult, multicharacter passwords, secondly, regularly to update them according to security policy.

In practice many users write the passwords on pieces of paper, stickers and store on a desktop. Some create simple and very simple passwords for all applications, is not dependent on degree of importance and privacy of data.

All these factors are security risk of data of the company.

This problem is solved by EZLogin service, providing a single system of authentication for all online applications. Need to write all passwords on paper leaves and furthermore to remember a set of bulky passwords disappears. The password for an input in the EZLogin platform that service began the procedure authentication of the user suffices.

"You who such?." or additional stages of authentication

To provide additional protection to data of the company, heads and IT specialists can connect service of the one-time password (One-time password).

For heads who else had doubts, we advise to test the company on the facts about need of use of the solution EZLogin if at least 3 signs are applicable to your company - it is a sure sign that it is necessary to increase security of corporate accounts and in general data security.

According to the researches conducted by the EZLogin command with the assistance of experts of Softline company in the Russian SaaS market there are no standards of centralized operation: services, accesses to them and the access levels of users, – and each application uses own authentication system of accounting records. As a result of it IT security of the companies using two and more SaaS services decreases. The EZLogin platform solves this problem and allows not only to manage the services presented in the directory but also to distribute, control accesses for users to online applications.

Marchenko Anton, the CEO of EZLogin, notes: "Use of EZLogin will allow small and medium business not only to increase safety of accesses to cloud services, but also will help to cut down expenses on management of the portfolio of SaaS. EZLogin gives the chance to manage accounts of employees, to control their access to services and mn. other. At the same time all tasks of security policy can easily be carried out by the client as independently, and with participation of the system administrator, without creation of own IT service".
