Part of SafeNet’s Fully Trusted Authentication Environment, SafeNet’s Authentication Manager (SAM) now allows organizations to implement a comprehensive authentication strategy for multiple types of end point devices, including personal mobile devices. By integrating mobile device credential management into a unified authentication scheme, organizations can ensure that only authorized personal mobile devices have access to corporate networks and resources.
The consumerization of IT - personal computing devices accessing corporate networks - has become one of the top concerns for IT departments in 2011. There are security and manageability issues when users access corporate networks with smartphones, tablets, and personal computers.
