It's no wonder so many organizations are utilizing Google Apps to improve collaboration and communication with Goggle's low to no cost solution. As with the addition of any new application, IT wants to reduce maintenance overhead and that means automating provisioning. With PingFederate, organizations can provide secure Internet single sign-on (SSO) for users to directly access Google Apps without the need to re-login.
PingFederate for Google Apps
PingFederate is PingIdentity’s award-winning federated identity software that provides secure Internet single sign-on (SSO) for all external partner connections, including Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) providers, managed services, trading partners, affi liates, acquisitions and customers. Ping Federate’s point-and-click connection confi guration, out-of-the-box integration kits, multi-protocol support, and user provisioning support enable rapid deployment. PingFederate makes external applications easier to use, reduces administrative costs and strengthens security.
PingConnect for Google Apps
PingConnect is the industry’s first complete on-demand secure Internet single sign-on (SSO) service for Google Apps. It improves user adoption by making Google’s SaaS applications easier to access. Powered behind the scenes by PingFederate, PingConnect complies with an organization’s existing directory and authentication mechanisms. It is the perfect solution for customers with limited resources and short deployment timelines.
Automates Account Provisioning
PingIdentity's Solutions for Google Apps eliminates duplicate administrative work and manual maintenance of user accounts by providing automated account provisioning. Administrators create a group or filter to contain all Google Apps users in the existing corporate directory. Then add, modify and delete users using existing directory management techniques. As changes are made to user accounts in the corporate directory, PingFederate and PingConnect automatically replicate each change to Google Apps.
Works with Existing Identity Infrastructure
Ping Identity designed PingFederate and PingConnect to work with existing directory and user authentication mechanisms. As a result, administrators do not need to maintain an additional directory, and users do not need to login again to use Google Apps. PingFederate Integration Kits expedite integration with existing identity infrastructure and are available for: access management systems including CA SiteMinder and Oracle Access Manager; custom applications written in Java, .Net and PHP; Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) and NTLM; and LDAP.
