How can you protect your organization's confidential information and vital infrastructure yet enable authorised users to access all the resources they need, no matter where or when?

Ascend ID is a comprehensive cloud based identity management service providing a flexible, user-friendly authentication solution that compliments and enhances your current remote access strategy and compliance demands.

Security challenge

With the increasing necessity for remote working and the proliferation of Software as a Service (SaaS, there is a vital need to satisfy stakeholders regarding security. Within this overall challenge comes the need for the organisations to satisfy compliance criteria, and provide secure alternatives to static passwords, while reducing the spiralling volume of support calls for password resets, and the associated costs and reduction in user productivity.

It is also imperative to remove the risk of written down, easily lost, forgotten or stolen passwords, and allow organisations to legally link user access to an individual.

Ascend ID meets the requirements for a cost-effective identity management solution controlling access to your information assets.

Complete Solution

As a cloud solution, Ascend ID delivers all the benefits of secure remote access without the major capital investment or human resources required to set up and run own resilient, inhouse identity management service.

This flexible, user friendly service provides one time passwords via Vasco’s entire suite of award winning software, hardware, sms, PDA & mobile phone tokens. The service can be tailored to each clients’ requirement, whatever the size and demand of the user base. Furthermore, Ascend ID allows businesses to plan for adverse weather conditions, pandemics or other business challenges with a complete portfolio of business continuity options that ensure your users can always securely access corporate resources.

With this additional layer of security you can have confidence that local and remote connections to your network are secure, and even attempted access via lost handheld devices and laptops is protected.
