The cloud security product offered by Entrust is called IDaaS or Identity as a service. It is actually a cloud-based identity and access management system and following are some of its top features:
Entrust provides businesses with a single platform for all users including partners, employees, customers, as well as the contracts. Having a single platform for all users can save businesses a lot of time, money, and energy. The built-in provisioning tools and the integrations can be very helpful in reducing the workload of the IT team. The secure portals give you secure access to your customers and partners and the adaptive authentication and identity proofing gives a complete digital identity verification ensuring a fast and secure user onboarding.
The IDaaS or Identity as a Software solution offered by Entrust has three different types of bundles which come in different prices. The most basic bundle is called the Standard Workforce Bundle and is available for $2 per user per month. This bundle allows only two additional SAML applications as opposed to an unlimited number of applications allowed by the other two bundles.
The most popular bundle is the Plus Workforce Bundle which is available at $3.50 per user per month and allows adaptive authentication. The third bundle is the Premium Workforce Bundle which also offers mobile smart credential/bluetooth login along with some other advanced features.

For safe access, Entrust Identity Enterprise has become my first choice. It authenticates my identification with ease while protecting company data and my privacy. Particularly with the VPN, it was quite easy to set up, and the mobile app makes it very quick to check in while on the road. Clumsy security measures are no more! In order to secure my multi-factor authentication while gaining access to internal papers, it has been a huge help. It has also made my process much more efficient.
For added protection when doing online banking, Entrust Identity is my go-to option. I manage my accounts and logins very easily with the smartphone app, which my bank utilizes for multi-factor authentication. Online banking is so much more tranquil when I know that my financial information is protected by an additional layer. I only ran into trouble when I changed phones. The app reappeared once I restored my data from iCloud, but my saved identities disappeared.
