Ping Identity and Microsoft announce a collaboration
September 2016 by Emmanuelle Lamandé
Ping Identity® announced a collaboration with Microsoft to deliver integrations that extend the value of Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). Through this relationship, Ping Identity solutions serve as a bridge to expand secure remote access and single sign-on from any device to more on-premises web applications for Microsoft Azure Active Directory customers.
Ping and Microsoft will deliver an integrated solution of PingAccess and Azure Active Directory Application Proxy in early 2017 to enable secure access to a broad spectrum of on-premises web applications. Azure AD Premium customers can use the integration to connect up to 20 apps at no additional cost. For more than 20 applications, full PingAccess licenses may be purchased. Microsoft will also list PingFederate as an additional authentication option in Azure Active Directory Connect, along with Password Sync and Active Directory Federation Services, for customers who choose Ping Identity for federation to Azure AD.
The Ping Identity Platform is a unified, standards-based platform for identity and access management as a service that can be deployed as SaaS, software or both, and can scale to handle millions of identities.
