TriCipher myOneLogin provides web-based strong authentication

BOSTON -- IGLOO Software, an emerging leader in corporate social networking, today announced a partnership with TriCipher Inc. to provide IGLOO community users with a secure and convenient way to access online applications using myOneLogin, the first Web-based service to combine strong authentication and single sign-on (SSO).

TriCipher myOneLogin streamlines password policies and compliance reporting, mitigates the risk of phishing, and eliminates the need for expensive authentication hardware and software. Other applications that can be securely and conveniently accessed through a single myOneLogin account include salesforce.com, Google Apps and Microsoft Outlook Web Access.

"Secure single sign-on is mission critical for a corporate social networking platform," said Dan Latendre, CEO IGLOO. "Tricipher's leading SSO offering fits perfectly with our strategy to provide an integrated suite of solutions tightly coupled with other best-in-class technologies to offer corporate users the convenience of single-sign on, while ensuring the platform has the airtight security features corporations demand."

Since 2003, IGLOO's software has reduced the cost and long implementation cycles associated with enterprise software by delivering its integrated suite as a fully-hosted, secure online service. Now supporting more than 600 online global communities, IGLOO is ideal for companies looking to harness the power of Web-based social networking platforms to quickly connect mobile workers or widely-dispersed teams for collaboration projects.

myOneLogin is the industry's first software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering to reduce risk from employee access to Internet-based applications. myOneLogin provides enterprises with an SSO solution that:

* Ensures password compliance for all applications, users and locations

* Eliminates password resets and lock outs, and their associated costs and lost productivity

* Eliminates costly one-time password (OTP) tokens and their annual $100/user costs

* Protects against stolen or phished credentials that enable unauthorized access to critical data

* Instantly and automatically de-provisions users when they leave organizations
