Daon Partners with TriVir to Deliver Physical Access Control Provisioning to Novell Identity Manager Customers
Reston, VA, November 19, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Daon, a leading provider of identity assurance software announced today a strategic partnership with Trivir LLC focused on delivering physical access control systems (PACS) provisioning to Novell Identity Manager customers. Customers can now fully integrate their physical access control systems, regardless of vendor, into their identity management environment.

New hires, employee terminations and changes to employees’ roles can automatically result in appropriate changes to their physical access. This solution improves security and facilitates regulatory compliance by ensuring that a given employee’s status is consistent throughout both the logical and physical environments.

“Over the years we’ve worked with our clients to create highly customized solutions for their identity management challenges.” said Glen Knutti, Managing Partner at TriVir. “We are frequently asked to integrate the physical access control environment into the larger Identity Management infrastructure. For many of our clients this has been a challenging proposition because currently available solutions require that the entire enterprise standardize on a single PACS vendor. This has consistently been an expensive and impractical solution. Leveraging Daon’s Identity platform was a logical choice for us as it enables us to effectively eliminate the problems presented by multi-vendor PACS environments. Together TriVir and Daon have delivered an elegant and powerful solution to a long-standing identity management challenge.”

“Daon’s Credential Connect platform enables customers to change the model of how they deal with identities throughout their organization. Our technology provides a truly comprehensive platform that enables customers to integrate their identity management systems with both logical and physical access control systems in a manner that leverages the best capabilities of each type of system” said Conor White, Chief Technology Officer at Daon. “We recognized TriVir’s experience in creating custom Identity Management solutions for Novell customers. This experience and depth of knowledge made TriVir an obvious choice to help us bring an integrated Novell and physical access control system integration to market.”

The solution consists of a full-featured connector for Novell Identity Manager that provides bi-directional synchronization with the Daon Credential Connect platform. The Credential Connect platform provides connectors for popular PACS solutions from vendors like Software House, Lenel, Honeywell and many others. By aggregating access to the individual systems the PACS environment becomes a full participant in the Identity Management infrastructure.
