Intel addresses emerging Cloud Security models
Intel has introduced a new web service security and secure cloud single sign on (SSO) capabilities core in a bid to enable the Cloud Service Brokerage usage model in the 2011 Gartner Cloud Security Hype Cycle.
According to Intel, it provides the ability to mediate and authenticate application services and user interactions from the enterprise to the cloud, or cloud to cloud.
The Intel Cloud Access 360 product, pictured, includes an SSO portal providing a single access point for users to launch cloud applications, while the Intel Services Gateway delivers new cloud API management and high assurance security certifications. The capabilities are included within the McAfee Cloud Security Platform update announced today.
