PlainID releases new solution powered by policy-based access control
PlainID, the Authorization Company, is introducing its “Authorization-as-a-Service,” SaaS-enabled Authorization Platform, helping businesses advance and modernize by simply and securely connecting people with the digital assets they need to do their jobs, accomplish tasks at scale, and conduct digital commerce.
Additionally, PlainID introduces its pre-built, third-party “Authorizers,” which allow authorization policies to enforce vital access points across a distributed computing environment, including authorization for API gateways, microservices, and data.
Designed to solve the broad enterprise challenges associated with advanced access control, PlainID’s Authorization-as-a-Service Platform has been architected for scale and the performance demands of the largest global companies.
By making authorization decisions simple, smart, granular, and dynamic, PlainID helps enterprises control who can access what, when, and how on whose authority, according to the vendor.
“As market adoption for authorization is driven by the convergence of traditional identity and access management and cybersecurity requirements, PlainID has enjoyed tremendous year-over-year growth,” said Gal Helemski, chief technology officer, chief product officer, and co-founder, PlainID. “In the future, we believe that PlainID will be behind every connection between an identity and a digital service: monitoring, securing, and validating it. Authorization is the foundation of security: it’s the last mile that governs what people actually can do.”
Powered by policy-based access control (PBAC), leading-edge features include PlainID’s Centralized Management Dashboard, which provides users the ability to create and manage enterprise-wide authorization policies from a central point while maintaining distributed enforcement capabilities. The ready-to-use Authorizers included in this preview launch address common authorization patterns for API gateways, microservices, data, and applications.
