Ping Identity and iC Consult deliver flexible
identity solutions to support employees, partners and customers
Ping Identity (NYSE: PING), the Intelligent Identity solution
for the enterprise, has centralized Identity Access Management
(IAM) for over 300,000 DB Schenker employees, contractors, partners
and customers. The successful project, conducted in partnership
with iC Consult, streamlined the management of critical security
policies and enhanced secure access and authentication to business
applications.
DB Schenker is one of the world’s leading global logistics
providers, with 2,100 locations and more than 76,900 employees
across the world, it supports the exchange of goods through land
transport, worldwide air and ocean freight. After identifying the
need for a more secure and modern authentication service, DB
Schenker saw an opportunity to accelerate a digital transformation
initiative and provide more streamlined access to resources for its
workforce, partners and customers.
“The goal was to extend our existing identity and access
management (IAM) infrastructure to secure employee access and take
advantage of the cloud,” said James Naughton, Head of Identity
Management at DB Schenker. “In the past, we needed to invest
significant time and resources to develop integrations, but now we
simply configure the system and can deliver technically complete
interaction in 30 minutes, decreasing effort by 75%.”
Working closely with iC Consult, IAM consultant and systems
integrator, DB Schenker used Ping Identity to provide the
authentication and authorization capabilities needed to deliver a
consolidated and centralized identity management service. The
project utilized PingFederate, PingAccess, PingID, PingOne and
PingDirectory, impacted over 300,000 identities and involved the
migration of 50 business applications to the new authentication
service.
“DB Schenker’s identity team can now centrally manage critical
security policies and control access and authentication to their
applications,” Naughton explained. “The addition of FIDO2-enabled
risk-based two-step authentication allows us to provide an even
higher level of security for access to the DB Schenker IT
landscape, creating peace of mind for both our team, partners and
customers.”
“This is only the beginning of the identity journey for DB
Schenker,” said Emma Maslen, VP and general manager of Ping
Identity, EMEA & APAC, “We will continue to seek new ways to
push the boundaries of identity and provide MFA to every employee
to improve workforce productivity.”
