IDaaS—the new Wave of Security

“Many organizations are saddled with last-century identity infrastructures that are more of a costly drag on businesses than a business enabler. They are not designed to integrate easily with other systems or scale to millions of users that today’s mobile revolution requires,” remarks Hemen Vimadalal, CEO of Simeio Solutions. In today’s scenario, ‘X as a service’ is the buzzword and Identity as a service (IDaaS) is one of the most important technology for IT organizations to understand. A new wave of security, this cloud-based authentication system provides means to address one of the most challenging pain points for businesses—password management and security. The Atlanta, GA based company is specialized in offering professional services, Identity and Access Management (IAM) managed services, and IDaaS based on CA Technologies platform. Simeio is assisting enterprises to safeguard identity, which is key to operation and delivery of business services, by tying together and integrating the various IAM silos that exist within applications into a common enterprise layer.

Simeio’s IDaaS solution encompasses a complete, end-to-end identity service that is tailored to customers’ specific requirements by integrating a suite of CA Technologies including CA SSO, CA Advanced Authentication, and CA Privileged Access Management. This provides enterprises with automated workflows for Identity administration, Access request, Role and access governance, and managing Identity risk and intelligence. The firm facilitates deployment of these business-focused IAM solutions by consuming only a fraction of the time that it takes to deploy traditional IAM implementations. This best-in-class IAM solution helps organizations to eliminate hardware costs, ongoing maintenance and upgrade costs meanwhile assisting them simplify compliance with regulatory mandates.

The company offers a suite of managed services and solutions in the identity and access management space. The company’s Simeio IIC (Identity Intelligence Center) is the first solution of its kind, specially designed to operate, monitor and defend complex, multi-vendor IAM infrastructure and to leverage those infrastructures to deliver actionable business intelligence.

The firm’s mastery in providing business process, implementation, managed services and software-as-a-service (SaaS) in areas of IAM and identity management has helped many larger organizations to clear their business roadblocks. For instance, CFA Institute, a global community of more than 130,000 investment professionals working towards building an investment industry, wanted to implement an automated, seamless, scalable IAM system that provided the foundation with a trusted IT environment. Since Identity and access governance was required for the organization’s members and candidates to securely access the CFA Institute resources, protecting their personal information became a prime concern. To resolve the issue, CA Single Sign-On, CA Identity Manager, and CA Identity Governance products were selected and implemented through Simeio Cloud Services. “The IAM service from Simeio supports both our long-term business and technology strategy to provide services and infrastructure for optimum online engagement and transaction with CFA Institute,” says Elaine Cheng, CIO, CFA Institute.

Over the past few years, Simeio has successfully served the Identity management and IAM landscape with their efficient and unique range of services. Simeio’s client base is expanding as interest in identity and access management, IT governance, and risk and compliance is growing across all sectors. The firm is continuously evolving to serve their clients with updated technologies to cope up with the dynamic nature of security and identity risks.
