Ping Identity: Protecting Enterprise Employees with Secure Remote Access
In the wake of COVID-19, enterprises are making complex transitions to a more remote workforce in days. Employees are signing into hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of business applications from different locations and devices around the world. This results in a diverse set of security and risk scenarios for businesses.
Ping Identity (NYSE: PING) is providing free multi-factor authentication (MFA) and cloud single sign-on (SSO) for unlimited applications to help companies enhance their security while expanding their remote access. With these solutions, new and existing Ping Identity customers can immediately protect their IT resources and enable their remote workforce. MFA and SSO strengthen authentication for VPN connections, reduce the risk of employees using personal devices and boost employee productivity – so enterprises can keep their businesses running safely and efficiently.
