CA Certifies Radiant Logic Virtual Directory and Synchronization Services as Interoperable with CA's eTrust Directory

BROOMFIELD, Colo. --(Business Wire)-- Oct. 25, 2004 -- Scalable and Reliable Directory Backbone Combined with the Most Flexible Integration Framework for Complete Identity Virtualization

Radiant Logic, Inc. today announced that Computer Associates International, Inc. (CA) has certified the RadiantOne Virtual Directory and Synchronization Services as interoperable with CA's eTrust Directory. eTrust Directory is a critical component of eTrust Identity and Access Management Suite, a complete, standards-based solution for automating and integrating identity and access management across enterprise, customer and partner environments.



The integrated solution will enable eTrust Directory customers to leverage their existing identity sources more easily and adapt to changing business requirements through identity virtualization. RadiantOne has received the CA smart seal of excellence, which is awarded to products that integrate seamlessly with CA solutions, enabling customers to take advantage of best-in-class enterprise technologies while minimizing cost, time-to-benefit and risk.

"By virtualizing non-directory identity sources, Radiant empowers users of CA's eTrust Identity and Access Management Suite to easily and flexibly enhance their core directory services with attributes and data from other systems," said Bilhar Mann, vice president of eTrust security management at CA. "This integration provides significant value by making identity descriptors richer and more dynamic. It enables businesses to implement more sophisticated role-based authorizations and other best practices that streamline user access to technology while helping to ensure compliance with enterprise security policies."



The RadiantOne Virtual Directory and Synchronization Services extend the reach of eTrust through virtualization of existing data sources such as databases and Web services. With Radiant Logic's RadiantOne, disparate identity sources -- directories, databases and applications -- can easily be virtualized, consolidated and deployed. The resulting directory view can be dynamically linked through the eTrust Directory backbone or directly synchronized with eTrust Directory for high performance and availability. Directory virtualization is leveraged by the eTrust Identity and Access Management Suite for provisioning, enforcement and audit.

eTrust Directory enables organizations to accelerate time-to-market, and reduce development and administration costs by supporting a common security repository across the enterprise. It combines virtually unlimited scalability, extremely fast response times, and extensive support of industry standards -- making it an optimal choice for large-scale, mission critical identity and access management initiatives.

"This alliance provides enterprises with the ability to easily integrate their existing identity sources into a scalable, reliable and highly available directory backbone," said Dieter Schuller, vice president of sales and business development for Radiant Logic. "CA's recent announcement of its intent to acquire Netegrity makes a flexible directory services infrastructure that meets changing business requirements more valuable than ever."
