Application Delivery
Application Delivery is the overall integration
of numerous technologies that provide access management and application
provisioning and availability to end users, partners, and vendors.
Application delivery provides pervasive access to all company related
applications and content over any network connected device.
Application Simplified Sign-On
"SSO" or Simplified Sign-On is
achieved through the use of advanced technologies that allow for automated
submission of application credentials without user intervention. This allows
for minimized help desk costs, enhanced security, compliance, and greater
productivity.
Strong Authentication
Strong authentication and multi-factor
authentication solutions are provided via partnerships with "Best of Breed"
solutions including active proximity, token-based, smart cards, and
biometric solutions.
User Lifecycle Management and Provisioning
User lifecycle management
and provisioning is achieved through the use of integrated systems that
provide automated user account and resource provisioning. ULM and
Provisioning allow organizations and users to provide self service with
minimal I.T. support for all user related account maintenance throughout.
User Productivity
User productivity is primarily increased by improving application performance
and through automation. User productivity is also increased through the use of
Critical Design Associates methodology which encompasses user interaction throughout
the integration engagement.
Minimized Downtime
Downtime is minimized by developing solutions which encompass multiple levels of
redundancy. The solutions developed typically consider and implement redundancy at
the network, application, and data layers of your business' technology infrastructure.
Extended Application Access
Application access is extended by developing solutions that are securely accessible
from anywhere, at anytime, and from any device.
Application Integration
Application integrated solutions are employed through understanding all business
processes, available software and interviewing the end users to understand how they use
the available solutions. Once a baseline for usage is established and expectations are
set, we work to develop solutions which allow all systems to interact in a manner
acceptable to the end users computing and business requirements. Critical Design
Associates is experienced in developing custom solutions that bring disparate
applications and data together into a more cohesive and collaborative integrated
solution.
