The Benefits of Novell Secure Login

Recently we reviewed Symplified’s Single Sign On client. Today, we'll look at another Single Sign On (SSO) application, Novell Secure Login.  Novell Secure Login has a lot of the benefits many SSO applications boast, such as the ability to login once and have access to a plethora of applications you use every day for work. However, with Novell Secure Login, you also get the added ability to login from anywhere you choose and it will still feel as if you were right at your desk. Another added benefit to Novell Secure Login is its seamless integration to eDirectory or Active Directory as a user store.

With the growing technological influence on big business, users are required to login to an increasing number of applications, and countless passwords. This unfortunately leads employees to write down their passwords on sticky notes or notepads, which if left unsecured, increases the risk of unauthorized access. In order to eliminate this problem, Novell Secure Login has you login once to the application of your choice, and then it stores the password securely. Now, if you want to login to that application again, you just login to Novell Secure Login, click the application, and voila! You’re granted access! Novell Secure Login can work for upwards of 30+ applications at once, and you just have to remember one password, so no more passwords sprawled on sticky notes all over cubicles.

Novell Secure Login can also be used to enforce password policies and meet regulatory compliance. You can enforce strict password policies for your applications through Secure Login, and you can change the policies through Secure Login’s Interface at your convenience. Secure Login can also be used to enforce users to comply with regulatory compliances such as HIPPA, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and even the Gramm-Leach-Billey Act.

With Novell Secure Login, you have an astonishing amount of out-of-the-box functionality. Right away, you get support for Windows, Web, Java, and Terminal based applications. Not to mention the fact that it integrates effortlessly with Novell Identity Manager, Novell Access Manager, and Novell Sentinel. This allows you to have all your administrative duties normalized to one location or group of people. eDirectory can also be used as the user store for Novell Secure Login, as well as Active Directory.

Once again, SSO applications are becoming the wave of the future in this vastly expanding world of Web Based and application based enterprise workforces. With Novell Secure Login, you get what you would expect from an already dominant name in this field of identity management, with compliance, ease of use, and integration into so many prevalent enterprise applications.
