What is
BlackBerry Enterprise Identity
?

BlackBerry Enterprise Identity
 provides single sign-on (SSO) to cloud services such as
Microsoft Office 365
,
G Suite
,
BlackBerry Workspaces
, and many others. With single sign-on, users don't have to complete multiple log ins or remember multiple passwords. Administrators can also add custom services to
Enterprise Identity
 to give users access to internal applications. Users can access the services from any device they want to use, such as
iOS
,
Android
, or
BlackBerry 10
 devices and other computing platforms.
Enterprise Identity
 is bundled with
BlackBerry UEM
,
BlackBerry UEM Cloud
, or
BES12
. Administrators use the
BlackBerry UEM
,
BlackBerry UEM Cloud
, or
BES12
 console to add services, manage users, and add and manage additional administrators. This integration with
BlackBerry
 EMM products makes it easy to manage users and enable them to access cloud services from their devices.

Feature
Benefit
Enhance employee productivity
Employees can use one password for all cloud services, across all mobile devices (
iOS
,
Android

Customize authentication
Based on your specific security scenario,
BlackBerry Enterprise Identity
 allows you to choose the authentication method for any given service, user group, or combination of the two. You can even adapt your organization's policies to adapt to high-risk situations.

Users and their identities are fundamental to enterprise mobility.
BlackBerry Enterprise Identity
 unifies and simplifies access to cloud services like
Microsoft Office 365
,
Salesforce
,
Google Apps
,
BlackBerry Workspaces
, or most other SAML- based apps and services, supporting the productivity of your increasingly mobile workforce.
