In today's enterprise, more than 30% of web applications are incompatible with web access management (WAM) software. That is, unlike OpenAM with OpenIG, most web access management products lack the agent to protect the web applications, or the application is a legacy solution that does not follow standard protocols for single sign-on. This limits the return on the enterprise WAM investment and constrains what types of web applications can be protected.
ForgeRock's Open Identity Gateway addresses this problem by extending access management to encompass all web applications. With OpenIG, OpenAM deployments can now be extended to be inclusive of those applications that do not integrate with policy agents alone. In addition, ForgeRock Open Identity Gateway interoperates, out-of-the-box, with all management solutions. Most importantly, your organization can on-board any web application without ever modifying or touching the target application again, significantly reducing the development and quality assurance required to protect web applications.
