Redwood City, California, United States, Wednesday, December 19, 2007 -- (Business Wire India) -- Encentuate, a leading provider of identity and access management (IAM) solutions, announced that AXA has selected the Encentuate IAM Suite to strengthen security and improve employee productivity in Asia. With over 120,000 employees worldwide and revenues of EUR71.7 billion in the first nine months of 2007, AXA is one of the largest global insurers. AXA plans to implement the Encentuate IAM Suite in Singapore to secure and simplify access to information through strong authentication and single sign-on.
AXA selected Encentuate for its scalability, its comprehensive end-point identity and access management solution, and its strong presence in Asia. Encentuate worked with e-Cop, a trusted partner for information security services, on the deal. Encentuate's award-winning technology, combined with e-Cop's commitment to delivering innovative and complete information security services and technologies, provides a powerful solution to meet all of AXA's identity and access management requirements.
"Encentuate and e-Cop stood out from the pack and they are committed to helping us meet our objectives," said Loh Wei Lee of AXA. "Encentuate IAM will secure and speed up access to critical information and help with compliance, allowing us to focus on providing financial protection to customers across the globe."
Encentuate migrates user-centric IAM functions to the enterprise end-points while providing centralized administration. Implementation will require no changes to AXA's existing infrastructure or complex integration, enabling e-Cop and Encentuate to deploy the solution quickly with minimal burden on IT.
"Encentuate continues to develop a strong presence in the financial services and insurance industries," said Peng T. Ong, founder and chairman of Encentuate.
