PARIS – Evidian, the European leader in identity and access management, announced that Gartner, Inc. has rated Evidian “Positive” in its 2010 report entitled “MarketScope for Enterprise Single Sign-On” based on evaluation of Evidian’s Enterprise SSO solution.

The Gartner MarketScope evaluation is based on a weighted assessment of a vendor’s products in comparison with the evaluation criteria. Gartner’s MarketScope provides specific guidance for users who are deploying, or have deployed, products or services.

Evidian Enterprise SSO is a market-leading single sign-on solution that is designed to integrate tightly in companies’ identity and access management environments. It controls and secures access to Windows, Linux, Citrix thin-client, web and server environments according to the corporate security policy, facilitating compliance and ensuring that corporate assets are protected.

In recent months, Evidian considerably reinforced its position in the single sign-on market by adding industry-specific features and strengthening integration with global identity and access management. It introduced business-oriented features in sectors such as healthcare and finance with roaming sessions for clinicians and multi-PC authentication for traders.
