Radiant Logic, the leading provider of the federated identity and
directory service, today announced the 7.3 release of its RadiantOne
Federated Identity and Directory Service (FID). With its Universal Cloud
Identity Connector (UCIC), version 7.3 enables major enterprises to
transition to cloud-based infrastructure, while still serving legacy
applications on-premises. The new release also includes major
improvements to RadiantOne’s storage and refresh capabilities, further
enabling it to serve the largest identity deployments in the world, plus
updates for more fine-tuned administration.
“More and more businesses are living with one foot on the dock and one
on the boat, as hybrid environments become the norm,” says Radiant Logic
CEO, Michel Prompt. “This release is specifically designed to help large
enterprises to maintain their investments while moving their business
forward toward a modern, cloud-based infrastructure.”
Universal Cloud Identity Connector Improves Support for Identity
Access and Provisioning
RadiantOne 7.3 includes enhancements to make authentication and
authorization in hybrid environments more secure and more efficient,
while preparing the way for an easy migration to the cloud.
“User directories and other repository services continue to be an
important part of IAM. Most organizations have an existing on-premises
user directory,” says Gartner VP analyst Mary Ruddy in the December 14,
2018 research report Plan
Your IAM Architecture for ContinuousNEXT. “There are a number of
use cases for adding another (usually cloud-based) user directory … Most
cloud-based services require synchronization of user identity data. This
can lead to identity sprawl (i.e., multiple copies of the same identity
data), which makes it more challenging to keep identity data changes
synchronized.”
RadiantOne 7.3 debuts the Universal Cloud Identity Connector (UCIC),
making it easier to map identities to cloud targets. This externalized
service is an abstraction layer based on SCIM 2.0 protocol. It features
pre-defined mapping templates for cloud app targets, including Azure AD,
Salesforce, Google Directory, Okta, Workday, and many others. Offered as
a cloud service, this represents an important tool for enterprises
looking to roll out a hybrid environment, and synchronize data across
disparate on-premise and cloud-based sources.
Improved Configuration Supports Finer-Grained Security and Management
RadiantOne 7.3 boosts FID’s already strong performance by improving the
persistent cache refresh feature of HDAP, implementing an agent-based
approach that can detect delta on the backend and refresh the cache
accordingly. Version 7.3 also features major usability improvements in
configuration and administration across the RadiantOne suite, including
the ability to temporarily lock configuration changes to ensure
security, or require approval for synchronization events. With these
updates, plus new email alerts to admins when changes have been made,
RadiantOne enables even finer-grained security over identity
orchestration.
“7.3 is a transition version but an important one,” says Claude
Samuelson, CTO and VP of Engineering at Radiant Logic. “We have
streamlined our connectors and improved different layers of our
synchronization architecture to facilitate a deployment on the cloud,
specifically AWS and Azure.”
Radiant Logic will be hosting a webinar on Thursday, June 6 at 11am PDT,
previewing the features of Version 7.3. Registration is open on the Radiant
Logic website.
Test Drive the Product at Sailpoint Navigate Conference
Join Radiant Logic at the Sailpoint Navigate conference, June 10-12 in
Austin, TX, to learn how implementing RadiantOne FID can help you to get
even more value out of your identity governance solution. RadiantOne can
be used to “pre-integrate” identity data from diverse sources, and it
can also use the IGA database as a source of identity information
itself, for use in LDAP, WAM and Federation. RadiantOne makes dynamic
business needs—including provisioning, the move to the cloud, and
IGA—more cost effective, simpler, and faster through identity and
directory integration.
Radiant Logic VP of Business Development Dieter Schuller will also
participate in a panel discussion on the “Future of Identity” with
BeyondTrust, Ping, and AWS. Attend this interactive executive panel
session to gain insights on best practices and what lies ahead for
best-of-breed IAM. The panel will take place on June 12 at 3:30pm.
