EmpowerID is modular software product available as SaaS or for on-premise installation that provides broad capabilities in the areas of Identity Governance and Administration, Access Management and Single Sign-On, and Privileged Access Management. EmpowerID is a modern container and microservices-based solution. This enables the SaaS and on-premise options to offer equal functionality and to only differ in the infrastructure location in which they are deployed and customer responsibilities. EmpowerID SaaS is deployed and operated in customer-selected Azure regions to ensure data and regulatory compliance.

EmpowerID’s solutions provide complete functionality for all types of identities including your workforce, partners, customers, and non-human identities such as applications, devices or bots.
