Imprivata Customer H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute Named Winner of Info Security Products Guide's Best Deployment Scenario Awards
Imprivata and Partner Courion Team Up To Deliver Excellence in Compliance, Identity Management and Single Sign-On Categories
Lexington, MA – August 17, 2007 – Imprivata®, Inc., the enterprise identity and access management appliance company, announced today that Info Security Products Guide, a Silicon Valley Communications publication and the world’s leading publication on security-related products and technologies, has named its customer, H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute, a winner of the 2007 Best Deployment Scenario Award in three categories. Imprivata and technology partner, Courion, worked together to help Moffitt excel in compliance, identity management and single sign-on (SSO).
This prestigious award recognizes security vendors with advanced, ground-breaking network security solutions that are helping set the bar higher for others in all areas of information security. The H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute was selected by the editors of Info Security Products Guide based on real world solution deployments making the most positive impact on security in today’s highly sophisticated and blended attacks environment.
“Successful deployments are a tremendous proof that a vendor’s security solutions actually work and can be productively implemented,” says Rake Narang, editor-in-chief, Info Security Products Guide. “Even though security deployments may differ from one another, successful deployments show a vendor’s expertise and the efforts made to meet and exceed their customer’s security needs.”
Moffitt’s biggest challenge was to create an environment where users have the ability to launch applications without having to remember 15 different passwords - which is a big problem for physicians. Additionally, Moffitt needed to be able to streamline provisioning so that when a user is entered into the HR system, it automatically generates role-based credentials for that application and provisions those users for the right application.
To solve identity management and user convenience issues, Moffitt implemented Imprivata OneSign™ SSO to enable each clinician to log in to all applications with a single password, speeding application access, improving productivity and ensuring prompt patient care. Moffitt also seamlessly implemented Courion’s AccountCourier® with the OneSign Single Sign-On to help enforce account provisioning policies, identify orphaned accounts and offer workflow appropriate for both technical and non-technical end users.

“Moffitt Cancer Center is an organization focused on providing both clinicians and patients with the most secure and accessible solutions available,” said Omar Hussain, president and CEO of Imprivata. “We are honored to know that this comprehensive identity and access management solution implemented at Moffitt has achieved the goals that they have set and we congratulate Moffitt on this well deserved award.”
Imprivata OneSign SSO effectively solves password management, security and user access issues. Additionally, it automates password policy implementation - creating unique, strong passwords behind the scenes to help support compliance needs. OneSign SSO performs password changes automatically on behalf of the users, ensuring stricter security and eliminates security breaches associated with passwords written on sticky notes or hidden under keyboards. The solution also decreases costly help desk calls associated with user password resets.
