ProtectNetwork Logo
ProtectNetwork is an outsourced enterprise identity service on the Internet. Enterprise applications, websites and SaaS applications on the Internet use ProtectNetwork as a source of secure, trusted, user authentication for their users. End-Users use their single ProtectNetwork user credential to securely log into a wide variety of online resources worldwide in a seamless manner. No need to re-login multiple times with multiple passwords and credentials.
Enterprise Administrators provision their Users (Employees, Partners, Customers, Contractors and Guests) into ProtectNetwork and enable access to their Campus Network resources for such Users using ProtectNetwork authentication and access management services. This helps enterprise clients drastically reduce their helpdesk and identity management costs and increase security benefits. They no longer need to deploy and manage expensive IdM (Identity Management) components on their local infrastructure. Customers simply acquire such benefits on demand from ProtectNetwork!
ProtectNetwork is open standards based and is compatible with SAML 2, SAML 1.1, Shibboleth v1.3+, Shibboleth v2.0+ and OpenID single sign-on security standards.
