PRLog (Press Release) - Oct 26, 2009 -
ProtectNetwork is an outsourced Enterprise Identity Service on the Internet. Enterprise applications, websites and SaaS applications use ProtectNetwork as a source of secure and trusted user authentication for their users. 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. ProtectNetwork service is available at http://www.protectnetwork.org/.

With the release of this new major upgrade, Website administrators and Enterprise Identity Administrators (also called Sponsors) are able to provision and sponsor their Users (Employees, Partners, Customers, Contractors and Guests) into ProtectNetwork in bulk with ease and flexibility.

Enterprise customers with Administrator privileges can now upload their users in bulk into ProtectNetwork, organize them into Groups and assign them Entitlement values. These Entitlements are then released as user attributes to different trusted SAML/Shibboleth enabled sites. The site owners are now able to implement access control policies using such Entitlement values for providing access for their users.

ProtectNetwork identity service is also available via several identity federation partners worldwide such as the:
* InCommon federation in the USA
* UK Federation in the UK
* Edugate federation in Ireland
* SWAMI federation in Sweden

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF THE UPGRADE:

* Provision Users in Bulk
* Organize Users into Groups
* Assign Entitlements (App Grants) to Users and Groups
* Delegated Administration of Users, Groups and Entitlements
* Request release of attributes for Users to trusted sites
* and many more...

Enterprise customers are able to use ProtectNetwork identity services on demand based on their current needs. They no longer need to deploy and manage expensive Identity Management components on their local enterprise infrastructure. This helps organizations drastically reduce their help desk and identity management costs while preserving user data security.
