Atos joins global Identity Defined Security Alliance to enforce identity-centric security strategies

Denver, U.S. & Paris, France – September 10, 2019

Atos, a global leader in digital transformation, today announced that it has joined The Identity Defined Security Alliance (IDSA), an industry alliance that helps organizations leverage existing cybersecurity investments to establish a stronger security posture and elevate the role of identity in overall security strategies.

Gartner recently ranked Atos the third highest Managed Security Service (MSS) globally in terms of 2018 market share revenue[1]. With the addition of Atos, the IDSA is comprised of 25 member companies spanning the cybersecurity market, as well as Fortune 1000 Customer Advisory Board members.

“The IDSA brings leading technology companies together to share ideas and educate practitioners on identity’s place in an overall security strategy,” said Allen Moffett, IAM Practice Lead at Atos North America. “We have been in the Identity Access Management (IAM) business for almost 30 years, and are increasingly encountering customers and prospects looking for guidance. As a member of the IDSA, we look forward to collaborating with dozens of other experts to produce resources on identity-centric security approaches.”

In addition to security and IAM services, Atos provides Evidian IAM software and as-a-Service products – a powerful combination for both on-premise and cloud for a complete identity management solution. Atos also provides Trustway and Horus solutions for total digital identity and sensitive data protection.

Identity Defined Security provides real time, intelligence-based access to data and applications by integrating IAM infrastructure with enterprise cyber security technologies. The IDSA believes that Identity Defined Security should be at the center of a security strategy and its mission is to help organizations succeed in becoming more secure through identity-centric security approaches.

“The security paradigm is changing, and organizations are realizing that identity and security should no longer be separate programs, yet they grapple with how to move forward while leveraging existing investments,” said Julie Smith, Executive Director of the IDSA. “Our guidance is designed to help organizations of all sizes, in all industries, in all geographies, kickstart efforts to bring identity and security together. The alliance will be further strengthened by Atos’ global presence and broad customer perspective.”
