Finance Case Studies

Banking and Finance Flyer - Controlling internal risks via identity and access management

English French German

In the financial sector, data protection is a matter of the utmost strategic importance. In a deregulated environment, characterized by close links between market players, the handling of ever larger amounts of capital, and increasingly sophisticated financial products, operational risks have taken on considerable significance. By rationalizing access to sensitive data and managing accesses and identities in a structured and coherent way, banks and financial companies can fundamentally reduce their exposure to operational risks.

This strengthens user authentication in a very critical environment. Evidian solution fits very well in our demanding environment, with its stringent operational processes and requirements. We have strongly reduced access risks while improving trader productivity."

We have found with SafeKit a simple and robust solution for high availability and synchronous replication between two servers with no data loss. With this software solution, we are not dependent on a specific and costly hardware clustering solution. It is a perfect tool to provide a software high availability option to an application of a software vendor."

Healthcare Case Studies

Healthcare Flyer - The prescription for identity and access management headaches

English French German

Every day, thousands of your employees use dozens of applications. This means hundreds of support calls for lost or forgotten passwords. Clinicians must log in and out of programs one by one, wasting patient time. Incomplete or inaccurate audit trails result in poor information governance.

English French

It will also make our job easier as we start to deal less and less with password related problems – we expect it to cut IT helpdesk calls by around 70%."

Systel - A software integrator deploys Evidian's SafeKit high-availability solution in firefighter and emergency medical services call centers

Its main advantage is that it brings in high availability through a software option that is added to our own multi-platform software suite. This way, we are not dependent on a specific and costly hardware clustering solution that is not only difficult to install and maintain, but also differs according to client environments. With SafeKit, our firefighter call centers are run with an integrated software clustering solution, which is the same for all our customers, is user friendly and for which we master the installation up to after-sales support."

Zithaklinik: Convenience for access control

German

Tradition and modernity come together in the Zithaklinik in Luxembourg City. Founded in 1924 by the Congregation of Tertiary Carmelites, the General Hospital relies on the latest security technologies as part of its IT service management project.

This also increases IT security."

Deploy FranceConnect quickly with Evidian Web Access Manager

French

From school catering to a request for social housing, local authorities are increasingly offering online services to their constituents. But to access it, they must identify themselves and therefore memorize new passwords, which often constitutes an obstacle and carries new risks, users often choosing the same password for several sites. Proposed primarily to public players, the FranceConnect solution is of particular interest to local authorities, which need verified identification without always having the resources to implement it. Deployable in a few days, an integration module such as the one offered by Evidian increases the interest of FranceConnect for local authorities, which can both simplify and secure access to their services.
