RSA, the security-first identity leader, announced that it is
bolstering Microsoft environments through a continuing partnership
that brings additional security to Office environments. The new
External Authentication Methods (EAM) feature will allow more
customers to expand their use of RSA solutions—including RSA
authentication and access capabilities—in far more Microsoft
environments.
RSA already partners with Microsoft to protect the most secure
environments. The new EAM capability will allow more Microsoft
customers to expand their use of third-party identity and access
management (IAM) vendors and security providers to protect a
broader set of use cases and to provide tighter integration with
their solutions. EAM will allow Microsoft customers to seamlessly
protect access to Microsoft resources using RSA® ID Plus, the
security-first identity platform providing MFA, access, single
sign-on, directory, and additional capabilities across cloud,
hybrid, and on-premises environments. EAM will allow customers to
deploy RSA’s market-leading, phishing-resistant authentication
capabilities, which support modern FIDO2 protocols, biometrics, and
QR Code authentication. The news makes public the work that RSA and
Microsoft customers have been testing in private preview for many
months. To join the public preview, contact RSA to check your
deployment.
“The new EAM integration will expand on our existing partnership
with Microsoft and help even more security-first leaders protect
their organizations,” said RSA CEO Rohit Ghai. “EAM will allow more
organizations to leverage RSA’s deep security expertise to keep
their data, resources, and applications secure.”
"We're thrilled to announce the integration of Entra ID External
Authentication Methods with RSA, one of the leading MFA vendors in
the market,” said Natee Pretikul, Principal Product Management
Lead, Microsoft Security. “This integration will provide our
customers with even more flexibility and choice when it comes to
securing their systems against the rising threat of phishing
attacks."
The EAM integration between RSA and Microsoft follows years of
successful partnership between the two vendors. Previously, RSA
provided Custom Controls as an external MFA solution to secure
Microsoft environments. The new EAM capability simplifies and
accelerates the previous Custom Controls integration, making it
easier for more customers to leverage RSA’s security-first
solutions to protect their Microsoft deployments. Moreover, the EAM
capability will allow Microsoft customers to deploy one RSA MFA
service across cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments.
RSA ID Plus will support the new EAM capability beginning May
24, 2024.
