SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 25, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ForgeRock®, the leading platform provider of digital identity management solutions, announced today that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named ForgeRock to its annual Security 100 list.

The program has gained solid traction across the technology spectrum, with special interest from strong authentication, risk and fraud management, identity proofing and identity enrichment vendors. Many partners in the program leverage ForgeRock’s innovative Intelligent Authentication framework, which enables customers to rapidly integrate homegrown and commercial solutions into their overall identity solution. Intelligent Authentication drastically reduces the time organizations spend integrating technologies while offering powerful flexibility and choice to deliver secure and frictionless user experiences.
