Irvine, CA-based SecureAuth has Promoted Garret Grajek as Chief Technology Officer
About the Company
SecureAuth Corporation, creators of the groundbreaking SecureAuth Identity Provider solution for the borderless enterprise, was co-founded by CEO Craig Lund and CTO Garret Grajek in 2005. SecureAuth IdP turns any enterprise into an identity provider capable of enforcing 2-Factor Access Control in a single, cost-effective solution. Fueled by the cloud and mobile phenomenon and the security requirements these disruptive computing platforms require, SecureAuth has experienced an accelerated rate of growth. SecureAuth IdP is the only solution that combines SSO with native 2-Factor Authentication in a single product across all platforms. This is a radical departure from the “old school” approach to deploying and maintaining separate authentication and SSO products – an approach that simply doesn`t work for cloud or mobile. In the same solution, SecureAuth includes Versatile Authentication (VAS) that enables IT to deploy single, two, or three-factor authentication to meet current and future regulatory requirements for cloud and web applications whether accessed from desktop or mobile device. Bringing the same level of security and control to cloud applications that enterprises experience with on-premise applications, SecureAuth IdP makes multi-product deployments obsolete while minimizing risk, increasing productivity, and reducing management costs.
