# PingFederate

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/332266/pingfederate

> PingFederate is a cloud-based software designed to streamline user authentication and single sign-on (SSO) authorization process. With support for industry-standard identity protocols like OAuth, OpenID Connect, SAML, and WS-Federation, it integrates with existing systems and offers rapid deployment capabilities.

PingFederate simplifies the implementation of federated identity networks, supporting browser-based SSO and integrating with a wide range of cloud, mobile, SaaS, API, and on-premises applications. Security measures such as multi-factor authentication (MFA), contextual MFA, and adaptive authentication help protect against unauthorized access and data breaches. It offers consistent sign-on and registration processes across channels, with pre-built templates for user registration and profile management. The platform also allows administrators to easily configure authentication policies, evaluate user request conditions, and create customized policies.

With PingFederate, organizations can achieve centralized identity management, eliminate insecure password practices, reduce the risk of unauthorized access, and minimize friction in the user experience.

## Reviews

### "PingFederate - true federation" — 5.0/5

> **Graham** | *8 May 2013*
> 
> **Pros**: - Admin GUI
- wide number of connectors
- support of standards (LDAP, SCIM, SAML)
> 
> **Cons**: - for any installation over multiple servers it needs a log aggregation tool such as Splunk.
> 
> PingFederate is used as the front-end for staff and students.  It provides SSO to GoogelApps and on-premise apps.  It's robust and quick to deploy,  
Note: it is not a direct competitor to Okta - the PingOne offering is.
