PARIS - Tuesday, February 15th 2011 [ME NewsWire]
(BUSINESS WIRE)-- OpenTrust, the Next-Gen IT security software publisher, today announced that one of the world’s leading energy and utilities companies has chosen to use the OpenTrust Security Suite to secure access to mission-critical applications.
The decision to use OpenTrust was made following a year-long process in which solutions from the best IT security software companies were envisaged. The OpenTrust solution will provide strong authentication to tens of thousands of employees worldwide and was selected after thorough testing which demonstrated interoperability with major card manufacturers and HSM technologies as well as with previously implemented 3rd party Identity Management and eSSO applications.
The OpenTrust suite is a scalable and modular strong authentication solution which secures access to applications within a private or public Cloud architecture. The solution is extremely secure, flexible and user friendly and the credentials of each user are stored on a single card which can be used for both physical and logical access control.
The Company will use OpenTrust’s products to deploy a variety of security services across multiple sites. These services will include network access control, strong authentication and secure VPN access for internal users and trusted partners. The project will benefit from the latest enhancements to the OpenTrust suite namely the newSelf Care Web portal which allows users to manage the information held on their cards or tokens from any location via an intuitive Cloud-based portal. This complete Self Care Portal means fewer Help Desk calls and lower costs when compared to competitor solutions.
“This new win reinforces our strong presence in the Energy & Utilities sector in which electricity, nuclear power and oil companies have already deployed OpenTrust to 100,000's of users worldwide for authentication, network security, secure encrypted exchanges and digitally signed documents”, said Olivier Guilbert, CEO OpenTrust.
