4. Enabling one-click access to thousands of additional apps
As organizations expand their use of SaaS apps, they need to reduce friction for users while maintaining security. Cloud Identity and G Suite already enable single sign-on (SSO) for apps that use modern identity standards like SAML and OIDC, but just as important in meeting organizations where they are in their cloud journey is the ability to support legacy apps that still require a username and password to authenticate.

We’re pleased to announce that support for password vaulted apps will be generally available for Cloud Identity in the coming days. The combination of standards based- and password-vaulted app support will deliver one of the largest app catalogs in the industry, providing seamless one-click access for users and a single point of management, visibility, and control for admins.

Creating environments that are secure–and keeping them that way–is critical for organizations that run in the cloud. These new features will help strengthen protection and securely enable cloud workloads and business processes. If you are at Next Tokyo, learn more by checking out our security sessions.
