Enhancing Cybersecurity with IBM Storage and IBM Security Verify
29 August, 2024, by Natasha Free
In digital transformation, securing storage solutions is non-negotiable. IBM leads the way with its integration of IBM Security Verify Privilege Vault with IBM Storage, offering enhanced security features such as multi-factor authentication (MFA) and single sign-on (SSO). This integration not only secures sensitive data but also simplifies access management across various IBM Storage products.
Key Features and Benefits
- Multifactor Authentication: IBM Security Verify introduces an additional layer of security, crucial for organisations under stringent regulatory requirements like GDPR. This layer ensures that data access is both secure and compliant, protecting against unauthorised access and potential breaches.
- Single Sign-On (SSO): By reducing password fatigue, SSO enhances user experience. It allows seamless access across multiple IBM Storage platforms, which include IBM Storage Scale, IBM Storage Control, IBM Storage Protect, and IBM Storage FlashSystems. This integration improves efficiency and user satisfaction by minimising the complexities of managing multiple access credentials.
- Comprehensive Compatibility and Support: The range of IBM Storage products compatible with IBM Security Verify means that organisations don't need to overhaul their existing infrastructure. Instead, they can enhance security with minimal disruption.
- Ease of Implementation: IBM Security Verify is designed for quick and straightforward deployment. Organisations can typically configure applications to utilise these security features within 30 minutes, utilising pre-built connectors for faster integration.
Licensing and Trial Offer
IBM Security Verify is offered as a cloud service by IBM, simplifying the licensing process. Organisations interested in enhancing their security measures can take advantage of a 90-day free trial. This trial allows companies to assess the benefits and functionalities of the service in their own environments without any initial investment.
