MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.,
Aug. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- TOTVS
S.A. (BM&FBOVESPA: TOTS3), a leader in business management
software development, today announced the beta availability of
Fluig Identity, a new service for businesses that combines a
cloud-based identity management system with big data to unleash new
talent management capabilities. The cloud-based offering provides
companies with the ability to combine social media and enterprise
data to build an identity graph that will help better understand
employees' capabilities and match open positions with current
employee strengths.
With Fluig Identity, employees – and the companies they work for
– gain mutual benefit from the information provided in their social
profiles.
From a security perspective, Fluig Identity provides a single
cloud-based resource that manages identity and access to corporate
applications and resources as well as employees' social networks
and other personal online resources, simplifying personal online
access while improving personal online and mobile device security.
For example, users can bring together business applications like
Office 365 and Google Apps, as well as their online social media,
shopping and other applications. This single-sign-on approach to
identity management eliminates the need for employees to manage
passwords and access to each site and application by making them
easy to access in one secure location. The user can also
enable One Time Password to access all their apps, from personal to
work related.
From a business perspective, Fluig Identity improves security to
the organizations when adopting SaaS applications, since all of
them are accessed using secure and encrypted certificates using
open standards, instead of depending on replicating weak passwords,
for example. In addition, users can be automatically created once
they are added to the human resources (HR) systems, or Active
Directory, significantly reducing the time spent on creating
credentials. Furthermore, the same advantage works for removing
employee access when they leave the organization. All of these
happen through configurable workflows to more than 300 natively
integrated applications, like SalesForce, Google Apps, Box,
GoodData, WorkDay and others available in the platform.
At the same time, Fluig Identity provides employees with the
ability to opt into sharing professional information, such as the
skills posted on their LinkedIn profile, allowing Fluig to map
skills and experience to open company positions and unique task
requirements. As a result, Fluig Identity helps management teams
better understand their employees, and to match employees to
opportunities inside their organizations that fit their personal
strengths, experience and unique skills.
"Until today, identity and access management has been focused on
security and protecting corporate resources," said Vicente Goetten, executive director of TOTVS
Labs. "Fluig Identity creates a powerful new value proposition,
helping management teams efficiently map employee skills,
experience and interests to open positions that might be difficult
to fill. It's the first time companies and employees mutually
benefit from the information included in social profiles and inside
the organizations. Fluig Identity provides a powerful way to reduce
recruiting costs and employee turnover, while increasing job
satisfaction and employee morale."
For example, multilingual employees can be matched to jobs that
require fluency in more than one language or skilled engineers can
be placed in positions that take advantage of their technology
skills and passions.
Within a company, Fluig Identity can define which employees or
partners can access which corporate applications. If an employee
leaves the organization, the company can block access to corporate
resources, but the individual can still access his/her personal
applications within Fluig.
To protect privacy, each individual in Fluig must opt-in to
allow Fluig Identity to scan and share information from each social
or professional profile, with the understanding that sharing skills
and experience can lead to new career opportunities.
The beta trial of Fluig Identity is available at
www.fluigidentity.com for a 30-day period. Once the beta trial
ends, organizations will have the option of subscribing to Fluig
Identity for a $3.00/ user / month
fee.
Fluig Identity is part of the Fluig Platform that combines
Business Process Management, Content Management and Identity
Management.
