New Tieto Security Services to include Dell One Identity Solutions to enhance Cloud Services offering

Tieto's new Security Services will include Dell One Identity Manager and Dell One Identity Cloud Access Manager in its world-wide ecosystem, enabling Tieto to provide customers with the latest technologies and solutions.

Today, organizations are challenged to keep up with the accelerating pace of change in information security. With increasing numbers of employees demanding remote access via both professional and personal devices to data and applications through the corporate network, IT teams face a multitude of complex tasks in ensuring employees can gain secure access to both internal and external web applications. Through the deployment of Identity and Access Management solutions, organisations are able to manage the authentication of users, ensuring that the right people are able to access, using single sign-on, the applications and data in different clouds as required by their roles.

"The importance of information security in the modern world has grown exponentially. That is why Tieto has founded an internal start-up to provide information security services. We work in active collaboration with market-leading solutions providers and are pleased to be able to bring Dell One Identity solutions into our ecosystem. Dell offers us something special in terms of identity management. We were looking for a modular system that we could easily integrate into our own service offering, right down to a pricing model that scales in accordance with usage. And so we were able to build a package on top of the Dell portfolio. Our package is highly adaptable to customers' varying requirements and it can be delivered quickly," says Markus Melin, Head of Tieto's Security Services start-up.

"The addition of cloud services represents a unique challenge to information security within an organization. Identity and access management plays a key role in modern organizations that are beginning to utilize cloud services by ensuring that access to on-premise and cloud-based data is secure and easy for all authorized employees to access, regardless of the device they are using. Tieto is a superb partner for us – they have a strong foothold in all of the Nordic countries and we approach the IT security development path in very much the same way," says Dell Finland's Software Sales Lead, Petri Ahveninen.
