Ping Identity The Cloud Identity Security Leader, and Puleng Technologies, a leading services infrastructure automation company, today announced a strategic reseller and technical delivery partnership in South Africa.
“We are continually looking to broaden our product portfolio in order to offer our customers secure IT infrastructure platforms that are compliant and that adhere to corporate governance. The advent of cloud architectures and services-oriented infrastructures require additional facilitation in terms of standards-based single sign-on, secure mobile access and centralised user provisioning and management. Ping Identity brings these capabilities to our Security Portfolio,” said Muhammed Mayet.
IT organisations are rapidly deploying public and private cloud platforms and services to their existing infrastructure in order to reduce costs and improve service to customers, employees, and partners. Customer satisfaction, employee productivity and security are challenged by the need to serve people, applications, and devices that are mobile, and that can be connected at anytime into your private or public Internet domain. The requirement to leverage existing trusted identity infrastructure compounds the challenges.
“This is one of the many reasons why we have partnered with Ping Identity,” continued Mayet. “We see an opportunity to offer our customers proven technology, while shortening the implementation cycles normally associated with these types of solution deployments.”
Puleng Technologies provides service infrastructure automation solutions to central and South Africa. The company provides virtualisation, storage management, identity and access management and service delivery automation solutions and services to small to medium sized businesses and large enterprises.
The Puleng Security Business Division, headed up by Muhammed Mayet, has been providing leading identity and access management technologies and skills to the South African market for the last seven years.
Ping Identity has developed real-world best practices and industry-leading cloud identity security solutions from its work with more than 700 of the world's largest companies, government organisations and cloud businesses. Only Ping Identity delivers the simple, proven, and secure cloud identity management solutions for cloud single sign-on, mobile app identity security, and customer and employee identity and access management, API security, and centralised IT control of cloud access to businesses that depend on the cloud.
“Puleng Technologies has the skills and experience to deliver the cloud identity management solutions that businesses need to compete effectively in a global market,” said Andrew Hindle, business development director for Ping Identity. “Because Puleng Technologies understands the security challenges facing companies and how to ensure secure management of identity and access across an organisation, it only made sense to work with them to help bring Ping Identity's solutions to South Africa.”
