Secure Internet SSO to and from Microsoft SharePoint

With enterprise-wide spending on Microsoft SharePoint exceeding $480 million in 2007, it’s no wonder organizations are looking to capitalize on their SharePoint investments.  Whether you have ten or ten thousand SharePoint sites that you want to extend to external partners and suppliers or use SharePoint Portal to link your internal users to external resources over the Internet, providing secure Internet single sign-on (SSO) is key to adoption.  PingFederate's Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server SSO solution allows organizations to easily provide direct access to internal users and external partners and suppliers to SharePoint 2003 or SharePoint 2007 with secure Internet SSO.

With PingFederate and the SharePoint integration kit, organziations can provide secure Interent SSO for external suppliers and partners to directly access internal SharePoint sites and for internal users to directly access linked sites from SharePoint
PingFederate’s SharePoint SSO solution allows organizations to:
  • Improve SharePoint user adoption up to 80% by providing direct access to SharePoint sites and linked Internet resources without the need to re-login
  • Reduce SharePoint password resets up to 70% by allowing partner and supplier organizations to manage their own users' credentials
  • Eliminate the need to email passwords over the Internet for password reset requests and reduce phishing opportunities by removing login pages

Secure Internet Single Sign-On

Secure Internet SSO utilizes standards to provide users safe access to applications across the Internet without the need to re-login.  It allows organizations to share credentials and attributes for authentication and authorization, reducing the need to maintain user profiles in multiple systems.  Secure Internet SSO also reduces security gaps by using a trusted connection between the enterprise, also known as the identity provider (IdP), and the service provider. 

With secure Internet SSO, once a user has logged into the organization’s network, they can directly access applications at outsourced services, trading partners and affiliates over the Internet.  Hidden from the user, their organization validates the user and assembles an authentication token.  The external service provider receives the token and allows the user to access their resources and pertinent information over the Internet without different usernames and passwords.

PingFederate

PingFederate is the world’s first rapidly deployable software that enables secure Internet single sign-on by providing an organization’s users safe access to Internet applications without the need to re-login.  Identity federation deployments that used to take six months or more now take weeks with PingFederate’s easy-to-use comprehensive software.  Through standards-based identity federation, PingFederate reduces repeated user provisioning and time-consuming proprietary SSO implementations.  Over a dozen PingFederate integration kits easily enable first-mile integration, leveraging existing identity management infrastructure, and last-mile integration, providing scalable target application connections.  PingFederate provides additional modules for advanced authentication and Web services.
