Imprivata the digital identity company, has announced the release of its Enterprise Password AutoFill capability, the first and only Identity and Access Management (IAM) solution to enable rapid access to legacy and modern healthcare and business iOS apps on shared-use devices. Powered by Imprivata access management and digital identity technologies and GroundControl, the solution supports personalised device experiences while removing the need for manual authentication, which improves efficiency while enhancing security.
With lengthy usernames and complex passwords now the norm, accessing an application often requires a significant amount of manual interaction for clinicians with limited time in high-stakes healthcare settings. To address these challenges, GroundControl optimises the user experience by reducing the taps needed to type a username and password from 30+ taps to two. Through a fast, convenient badge tap at the time of device checkout, users carry their credentials into mobile devices and applications, creating a secure, auditable trail of access events.
According to the IDC Technology Spotlight, The Value of a Digital Identity Strategy in Healthcare , digital identity has become the new control plane for healthcare, and CISOs, CIOs and other health IT leaders, and needs to be managed intelligently. As risk and complexity continue to accelerate, a solid digital identity strategy can empower health IT leaders with solutions that strategically balance security and efficiency initiatives.
Imprivata GroundControl delivers automated device provisioning, secure device checkout, and quick, secure access for users. Now with the Enterprise Password AutoFill capability, users benefit from:
- Ease of use and significant time savings: Instead of entering lengthy usernames and passwords to access mobile apps, clinicians simply launch the app, select their credentials, and log in. In a well configured system, this can reduce the time-to-access from 15 seconds to less than one.
- Stronger security: The Enterprise Password AutoFill capability allows customers to dial up password complexity without burdening staff –a strategic imperative with the risk of cyber-attacks creating the need for strict security requirements. The solution also enforces two-factor authentication at the time of device check out on shared devices.
- Fewer help desk tickets: By streamlining access to mobile applications, this workflow cuts down on IT intervention by removing risks often associated with manual authentication.
“Users who want quick access to iOS devices have been asking for this capability to save valuable time and eliminate password fatigue,” said Gus Malezis, CEO at Imprivata. “This is the only solution that allows customers to unlock the full potential of shared iOS devices by ensuring an efficient and secure clinical workflow that’s truly friction free.”
Imprivata GroundControl with Enterprise Password AutoFill is available now.
