OneLogin, a leader in Identity and Access Management, announced
support for AWS Session Tags, an identity service capability from Amazon Web
Services (AWS). Building on OneLogin's existing IDaaS solution for AWS, support
for AWS Session Tags can make it easier for enterprises to implement Attribute
Based Access Control (ABAC) for secure authentication and authorization to
multiple AWS accounts. Customers can enhance security by adding tags to extend
access permissions across their AWS infrastructure. To learn more, check out

"This collaboration is a perfect pairing of AWS's
tremendous platform and OneLogin's access management capabilities,"
said Venkat Sathyamurthy, chief product officer at OneLogin. "With
more than one million organizations using AWS all across the globe, we can help
make a profound impact on digital security worldwide."
The enhanced integration combines OneLogin's access
capabilities with AWS Session Tags, a new component of AWS's role setup, for
improved access security. OneLogin, as the identity provider, is the
authoritative attribute source when federating users. AWS Session Tags allow
admins to assert a "tag", based on directory attributes, which
corresponds to specific access permissions. Rather than defining and
asserting a specific set of permissions for each user that would use AWS,
OneLogin customers can now pass attribute tags during login to determine user's
experience and permissions as they access AWS resources. These tag associations
are also valid across multiple AWS accounts and actions, making it easy to
implement least-privileged access at scale.
"With this
integration, customers can manage fewer access control objects in their AWS
environment, yet achieve the same level of granular controls,"
said Ehud Amiri, senior director of product management at OneLogin.
"This means that they can scale better and save on administration
costs."
