Passlogix v-GO Sign-On Platform Wins 'Best In Single Sign-On' Honors in Network Products Guide Reader Trust Award
Aug 06, 2008 — New York, NY;
Passlogix, Inc., announced today that its v-GO® Sign-On Platform™ has earned a 2008 Best Products and Services Award in the single sign-on category from Network Products Guide, a Silicon Valley Communications publication. The annual award honors products and services that represent the rapidly changing needs and interests of technology end users worldwide. Nominations were submitted from around the globe in 110 different categories.
The v-GO platform provides a suite of password management and related solutions for secure user authentication. The core application, v-GO® SSO™ (v-GO® Single Sign-On™), automatically and securely signs the user into any number of Windows, mainframe or Web applications after a single network logon without additional user-submitted identification or authentication. This enterprise single sign-on (ESSO) strategy reduces password-related security gaps, user frustration, and help desk/administrative costs.
Six v-GO add-on products extend v-GO’s single sign-on capabilities to any form of strong authentication and to kiosk environments, provide the industry-first ability to manage shared passwords within the ESSO infrastructure, integrate with identity provisioning systems, and permit self-service reset of forgotten Windows passwords. v GO is also available in a groundbreaking On Demand Edition that eliminates the need for traditional software installation on end users’ computers, simplifying ESSO deployments as well as extending the technology to new usage scenarios.
The v-GO suite has sold more than 10 million licenses to both private and public sector organizations around the world, including the world’s largest ESSO implementation with more than 200,000 users and 7,000 applications. Rapid wizard-based deployment enables implementation in months with minimal professional services.
“Increased end-user awareness and ongoing technology advances are helping shape better products and services. The v-GO Sign-On Platform is an impressive example,” says Rake Narang, editor-in-chief, Network Products Guide. “It not only solves the problem of proliferating application passwords that affects enterprises around the world, but also provides related solutions that address the entire security infrastructure.”
“v-GO has long been the market leader in enterprise single sign-on. This Network Products Guide Reader Trust validates that status and demonstrates the value that organizations place on our technology,” said Passlogix CEO Marc Boroditsky.
