March 17 2022 - 7:59AM
BIO-key International, Inc. (NASDAQ: BKYI), an innovative provider
of Identity and Access Management (IAM) and Identity-Bound
Biometric (IBB) solutions, today announced it will be a sponsor and
exhibitor at the 2022 Chief Information Systems Officers
Association (CISOA) Technology Summit, part of the California
Community College (CCC) system, to be held at the Ontario
Convention Center in Ontario, California March 20-23. BIO-key will
be available for customer meetings to discuss migrating to the
cloud, Q&A sessions, and live demonstrations of their
award-winning PortalGuard platform in booth 405.
Three of BIO-key’s CCC customers, College of the Canyons,
Ventura County Community College District, and Allan Hancock
College, will conduct seminars as part of the summit agenda that
highlight their success in improving their cybersecurity programs
by using PortalGuard. College of the Canyons will host the session,
“How We Launched SSO, Self-Service, and a Portal During COVID and
Didn’t Turn It All Off”, and Allan Hancock College will discuss
their experience migrating from PortalGuard on-premises to
PortalGuard’s cloud-based IDaaS platform.
In addition, BIO-key has partnered closely with Pathify, a
market leader in reimagining the student portal experience.
Together the companies deliver a secure, modern student experience
that provides a user-friendly interface that guides students to the
resources they need quickly, without any passwords getting in the
way. This “better together” story will be highlighted at the event
in the Spotlight Session hosted by Ventura County Community College
District, a valued customer to both organizations.
As the premier annual conference for CCC IT professionals, the
CISOA Technology Summit offers an outstanding array of educational
sessions on “Navigating the Next Normal” as higher education
institutions continue to adapt to a hybrid world with both online
and on-campus learning. Cybersecurity and privacy are top of mind
for attendees, as the education sector faces a growing complex of
cybersecurity threats. The industry has been under high attack for
several years already, with phishing, ransomware, and
denial-of-service attacks growing in frequency and ferocity.
For more than a decade, BIO-Key has been working closely with
the CCC to provide IAM solutions and expertise to IT professionals,
with over 55 colleges and districts across the state utilizing
their solutions already. Attendees are invited to stop by booth 405
for live demonstrations of BIO-key PortalGuard and to discuss top
cybersecurity priorities, including:
- Eliminating passwords
- Securing remote learning
- Meeting cyber insurance requirements
- Protecting student data
- Reducing password reset calls
Through ongoing demonstrations, attendees will see why higher
education institutions trust BIO-key's award-winning PortalGuard
platform for its end-to-end flexibility to support dynamic
cybersecurity strategies. Existing CCC customers are encouraged to
take a closer look at PortalGuard Identity-as-a-Service (IDaaS) to
learn more about the benefits of migrating to a cloud hosted
solution.
“As a longtime partner of the CCC system, we are proud to
sponsor the CISOA Technology Summit,” said Mark Cochran, President
of PortalGuard. “We are excited to meet with both new and existing
customers to understand how we can work together to improve their
IAM strategies within the changing dynamics of technology and
cybersecurity in higher education.”
