OmniPass by Softex, Inc. is an identity and access management solution designed to provide secure authentication and authorization for users accessing business applications and processes. It caters to enterprises of various sizes, including small businesses and large corporations. According to the vendor, OmniPass is widely used in professions and industries such as financial institutions, healthcare organizations, public sector organizations, and businesses with a remote workforce.

## Key Features

**Comprehensive Workforce Protection**: According to the vendor, OmniDefend secures access to critical business applications used by employees, contractors, and partners. It offers single sign-on (SSO) and multi-factor authentication (MFA) to protect desktops and applications. OmniDefend can integrate with custom in-house applications using identity management APIs. Additionally, real-time reporting capabilities provide auditing and reporting of workforce lifecycle events.

**Single Sign-On**: OmniDefend's SSO engine enables users to securely log in to applications without entering credentials each time. It supports industry standards such as OAuth2, OpenID Connect, SAML, and WS-Federation. For legacy sites that do not comply with standards, OmniDefend offers the Universal SSO Engine or secure OmniVault to store and fill in usernames and passwords.

**Windows Desktop Security**: OmniDefend provides multi-factor authentication to unlock Windows desktops. It enhances security for remote access and User Account Control (UAC) elevation. Additionally, kiosk mode allows quick authenticated access to shared workstations.

**Multi-Factor Authentication**: According to the vendor, OmniDefend supports various authentication methods, including biometrics, smart cards, OTP, and mobile phone authentication. It also complies with the FIDO2 WebAuthn standard, enabling secure authentication on Windows PCs, iOS, and Android devices. OmniDefend's APIs allow for the integration of MFA into in-house applications.

**Workforce Management APIs**: OmniDefend's Workforce Management APIs enable the integration of authentication and workforce management into custom in-house applications. The vendor states that SDKs for C# and JavaScript simplify integration, and REST-based WebAPIs can be called from any platform. OmniDefend's Universal Directory can be connected to Microsoft Active Directory or Azure AD, allowing the enrollment of contractors, partners, and users not in the Active Directory.

**Password-Less Website**: OmniDefend enables a password-less experience for customers by integrating MFA into website login and registration processes. It supports FIDO authentication, allowing the use of biometrics or security tokens. According to the vendor, this feature can help reduce fraud and simplify the customer experience during e-commerce transactions.

**Customer Transaction Verification**: According to the vendor, OmniDefend's MFA and identity management APIs can be used to verify and authenticate customer transactions. Strong authentication features ensure secure transactions, and user management APIs simplify customer identity management and authentication.

**Identity Management**: OmniDefend helps businesses implement identity and access management solutions tailored to their unique challenges. It supports compliance requirements in healthcare, finance, government, and other industries. According to the vendor, OmniDefend ensures secure enterprise access, data governance, and regulatory compliance. It also offers Zero Trust Security and Multi-Factor Authentication to enhance security in public, private, and hybrid cloud environments.

**Cloud-Based and Multitenant Architecture**: OmniDefend supports public, private, and hybrid cloud models, enabling secure access and management of on-premises and cloud resources.

**Single Sign-On and Federation**: OmniDefend provides a seamless login experience with single sign-on across multiple applications. It supports federation protocols such as OpenID Connect and SAML 2.0.

SecurID, a company and solution suite from RSA, is an identity and access management suite supporting access management, authentication, and identity governance.

Identity Management (IdM) is essentially about creating, maintaining, and retiring individual enterprise accounts for IT security. Identity and Access Management (IAM) systems encompass this but also provide a framework that goes beyond digital identities to providing access to users in various roles in a relatively automated fashion for cost and efficiency, while yet presenting minimal risk to sensitive data or equipment, simultaneously creating an audit trail for lawful compliance. Depending on the implementation needed by the enterprise (i.e. who is logging in and to what largely determines this) these concerns can be somewhat, highly, or totally overlapping areas.

Making comparisons across suites of software and their vendors can be difficult as this apparently singular body of needs is  serviced by vendors in this area in a highly modular fashion who bridge gaps with strategic or technical partnerships and integrations.  But here "Identity Management" Software is defined as software which handles all or some of the tasks related to all of the above, which may be divided into:

-- Identity governance or provisioning (basically role management with workflow controls).

-- Access (authorization or restriction of access to certain information to certain persons across locations and systems).

 ...and the various methods of enabling rapid yet secure access like:

-- Single sign-on (SSO, describes the ability to login to the system once and only once, gaining access to all systems without need for logging in again via help from a server).

-- Multi-factor authentication (using multiple, independent components to gain access, a simple step to increase security, though at a cost of efficiency for each additional step).

-- Password management and self-help for password users.

-- Identity federation, related to SSO, access spanning system boundaries (e.g. cloud access).

-- Directory / User Repository Management for tracking of users with access, and

-- Security Analytics for auditing and compliance...

...and more. IAM software is most usually sold in a modular, configurable pieces-sold-separately fashion, where each module handles some but not all of these needs. Some of the strongest vendors in this area offer high specialization and strategic partnerships with other specializers while other established vendors, via both acquisitions and development, manage to cobble together comprehensive portfolios and subsume all the various needs under one grand suite of comprehensive IAM capabilities. Enterprises have gone both ways.


A later arriving area of identity management software that greatly up-prioritizes speed and ease of access over security is called by the vendors who specialize in it Customer Identity Management, which provides simple customer registration most often via Social Sign-On capability. This allows a user to instantaneously set up an account with a service provider merely by logging in via their preferred social network account; voila, the customer has (safe, limited) access, and the enterprise gains useful information about the potential customer in less than five seconds. While traditional Identity Management Systems offer the capability to do this, smaller vendors who specialize in customer access, with its high-efficiency / low-security demands, sometimes bundle the feature with other common marketing capabilities to leverage the instantly acquired customer data (e.g. email marketing, segmentation, landing pages, etc.), thus creating a (growing) niche of customer-facing identity management systems in the process.
