Vanguard Authenticator™: Security Threat Reduction via Centralized
Access Control
Vanguard Authenticator™ is
a secure authentication service built on Vanguard’s Secure Domain
architecture. It provides reduced sign on authentication
services to users and other enterprise-wide systems. With
Vanguard Authenticator, enterprises can maximize IT investments and
reduce total cost of ownership by mitigating risks, decreasing
authentication costs, streamlining administration of users and
saving administration time and overhead.
Most enterprise end users maintain multiple user ID and password
combinations. With Vanguard Authenticator, the number of user
IDs is significantly decreased; users must only remember and
maintain a single password. Vanguard Authenticator allows an
ID to be deactivated once, immediately securing multiple access
points. Authenticator processes all incoming authentication
requests and performs authentication against the z/OS Security
Server.
