1Password has announced the launch of its new Extended Access Management solution, marking a significant advancement in the field of identity security. This innovative system is designed to fortify the security of every sign-in across all applications and devices, bridging the gap between Identity and Access Management (IAM) and Mobile Device Management (MDM).
The introduction of Extended Access Management propels 1Password to the forefront of the zero trust security category, addressing critical vulnerabilities that have long plagued businesses. This strategic expansion comes as 1Password celebrates surpassing 150,000 business customers, with notable additions such as Alteryx, Atari, and the Golden State Warriors.
1Password’s Extended Access Management is poised to redefine security software by closing the Access Trust Gap. It offers a seamless authentication experience for end-users across all applications and devices, empowering organizations to bolster their security, increase productivity, and ensure compliance.
The solution encompasses six essential components:
- Device Trust: Monitors device health in real-time, allowing access only to compliant devices, including personal and contractor devices.
- User Identity: Manages the entire lifecycle of end-user identity, from access provisioning to offboarding (available in beta in fall 2024).
- Application Visibility: Provides insight into the use of unmanaged applications, transforming shadow IT into managed systems (available in beta in fall 2024).
- Enterprise Password Management: Securely stores and shares sensitive information with 1Password’s award-winning password manager.
- Universal Sign-On: Extends SSO to all applications and websites, enhancing security for all user sign-ins.
- Contextual Access Management: Implements policies to restrict access from unhealthy devices and guides users through self-remediation.
