8KMiles Launches EzIAM to Enable Complete IAM Solution with Convenience of a Cloud-Based Service

SAN RAMON, Calif., Feb. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- 8KMiles, a leading global secure cloud solutions company powered by FuGen Solutions, today announced the launch of EzIAM^TM, combining the power of reliable user provisioning and user management solutions with the benefits of a hosted, cloud-based deployment model for the fastest way to implement Identity and Access Management (IAM).

EzIAM^TM is built on mature IAM technologies currently deployed by thousands of customers worldwide. It is aimed at Small and Medium Businesses (SMBs) and large enterprises that want a more flexible consumption model of SaaS via the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud or a secure virtual private cloud.EzIAM^TM, customers reap the benefits of a SaaS-based service with reduced CAPEX costs, IT overhead, and solution complexity while increasing business agility, scale and flexibility along with 8KMiles' patented Federation Partner On-Boarding technology (MISP^TM).

Customers can pay-as-they-go with individual services, or subscribe to all EzIAM^TM services, centrally managed through a single dashboard. Core capabilities of EzIAM^TM include advanced authentication, federated SSO and Identity Management and Governance services. Together, these three elements provide companies with low-friction, strong authentication and fraud detection, cross-domain SSO for optimum user convenience and productivity, and user lifecycle management with delegated administration and self-service access requests, password reset and profile management.

"SMBs have traditionally been disenfranchised with IAM due to the high costs, complexity, and operational demands," said Lena Kannappan, COO of 8KMiles. "With the continued explosive growth of SaaS services and the changing landscape of the business ecosystem, SMBs need a managed service that can grow with them, take care of their needs and help them quickly and painlessly establish secure business partnerships."

"IAM is hard, so we're excited to help remove complexity and friction from traditional IAM by combining it with our patented technologies," said Tony Goulding, VP Cloud Identity Solutions Presales at 8KMiles. "It's a solid combination with real, unique value. As demands on IT grow, with little or no increase in budget, EzIAM^TM gives IT professionals an opportunity to focus more resources on growth and innovation."

"As cloud adoption increases exponentially every day, IAM is in greater demand," said Anand Kumar, VP Sales at 8KMiles. "Customers are demanding more choices along with a simplified identity, access and governance experience. Older, non-flexible systems are no longer meeting the needs of today's business. The 8KMiles solution is the ideal alternative for our customers to consume IAM their way."
