IRVINE, CA--(Marketwired - Sep 10, 2013) - SecureAuth, a leading provider of identity enforcement technology for the enterprise, today announced it was identified as one of "nine most significant vendors in the category" in Forrester Research Inc.'s, "The Forrester Wave™: Identity and Access Management Suites, Q3 2013" report, and earned the highest rating among all vendors evaluated in the customer satisfaction category. Forrester evaluated a select group of nine vendors and conducted extensive research, product reviews and expert interviews to determine the ratings.

Authors, Andras Cser and Eve Maler, stated in the report, "Companies need to protect sensitive information -- and their failure to institute sufficient identity-based access control has resulted in corporate data losses time and again. Identity and access management (IAM) not only helps to reduce a company's threat surface, but it's also vital in reducing the cost of identity administration and the cost of regulatory compliance." In regards to SecureAuth IdP the report stated, "It offers a nice user interface for mobile access and two-factor authentication support… The solution offers risk-based authentication, social login, and integration with Box, Dropbox, and other SaaS applications."

"We have aggressively penetrated a significant portion of the identity and access management market in a short time with SecureAuth IdP, and the focus has always been on customer satisfaction," commented Craig Lund, chief executive officer at SecureAuth. "Our more than 500 customers and 10 million corporate end users benefit from our multifactor authentication and single-sign-on approach to securely identify and authenticate users that access corporate resources that are on premise, in the cloud and in mobile apps. Customers are most satisfied with how quickly SecureAuth IdP can be deployed across their global enterprise, the ease of deployment and the added security they receive.
