Centrify offers a best-in-class Identity-as-a-Service (IDaaS) solution for Dropbox for Business that provides secure single sign-on, automatic user provisioning and mobile device management.    

As part of this partnership, Centrify will integrate with Dropbox on two new security initiatives: Cloud Access Security, through integrations with mutual Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) partners, and Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM).  Centrify is also a sponsor at Dropbox Open on November 4 in San Francisco.  

Enterprises are facing an unprecedented increase in the complexity, scale and sophistication of cybersecurity attacks, with numerous studies pointing to compromised credentials as the leading attack vector.  

Centrify Identity Service lets organisations quickly and securely deploy Dropbox by leveraging their existing corporate directory, eliminating identity silos across applications and simplifying access for users.    

Centrify Identity Service also automates the provisioning of users into Dropbox based on their role, and lets organisations create comprehensive user access policies. Integrated cloud-based mobile device and application management also ensures that users’ mobile devices are secure, the Dropbox app is distributed to all authorised mobile users’ devices, and that users get simple yet secure password-free access to Dropbox for Business and their other business apps from any of their devices.  

“We are excited to further partner and colloborate with Dropbox in the areas of cloud and mobile security,” said Shreyas Sadalgi, senior vice president of business development at Centrify. “We are seeing significant momentum with Dropbox in the enteprise and are proud to deliver the industry’s most comprehensive IDaaS solution that goes well beyond single sign-on to also address customer’s mobile security requirements.”
