Imprivata OneSign Becoming Enterprise Single Sign-on Solution of Choice for Healthcare Industry
Imprivata, Inc., the enterprise single sign-on (ESSO) appliance company(TM), announced significant momentum in the healthcare sector. OneSign has been chosen by many hospitals and healthcare facilities nationwide to provide doctors, nurses and other staff members with secure, single sign-on access to all their enterprise applications. Good Samaritan Indiana, Lancaster General Hospital, NorthEast Medical Center, Pathways Community Mental Health, and Southwest Washington Medical Center are just a few of the healthcare facilities that have recently purchased Imprivata OneSign to quickly and effectively solve password management and user access issues.
"We are seeing the growing adoption of enterprise SSO as a necessary tool for healthcare organizations, especially in light of the looming HIPAA compliance deadline," says Patrick Morley, president and CEO of Imprivata. "With the varied applications healthcare organizations need to SSO-enable, OneSign uniquely offers healthcare IT a simple, affordable and secure solution out of the box, allowing SSO to even the most cumbersome applications more quickly and easily than ever before."
The growing use of Imprivata OneSign within some of the most respected healthcare facilities illustrates how OneSign is increasingly becoming an industry standard. Imprivata OneSign is the only ESSO solution on the market offered as a network appliance, which greatly simplifies installation and dramatically reduces IT overhead. Healthcare customers appreciate OneSign's standard features, including its unique Application Profile Generator(TM), shared workstation capability, self-service password management, automatic agent updating and support for strong authentication, as well as the fact that OneSign ships in redundant pairs to ensure ongoing fail-safe operation.
"In addition to the widespread password administration issues that plague organizations in all industries, there are aspects uniquely critical to healthcare, such as secure access to shared workstations, biometric authentication and other features that help us to protect confidential patient information," said Matt Maskart, senior systems engineer of Pathways Community Mental Health. "OneSign has solved our password problems and helped us to comply with HIPAA regulations without burdening our IT staff or inconveniencing our users."
Imprivata continues to expand its customer base into other key vertical industries, including financial services, manufacturing and government. 07.12.2004, Imprivata, Inc.
