Securent was founded in 2004 by industry veterans who have a proven track record of delivering game-changing enterprise software products.
While Entitlement Management is not a new problem, Securent’s founders recognized that companies did not have a simple and standardized method to administer role- and rule-based policies. To compensate for these shortcomings, companies were forced to build and deploy custom-coded entitlements into each application. With the typical Fortune 1000 company running thousands of applications, this manual approach is labor intensive, time consuming and leads to inconsistent application of policies that can exacerbate security vulnerabilities.
To address these issues, Securent’s founders pioneered the company’s flagship product, its Entitlement Management Solution (EMS), to enable organizations to secure sensitive applications and data with ease and precision. Securent’s EMS is the first XACML standard-based solution that allows organizations to create, enforce, review, and audit fine-grained access policies across heterogeneous application and IT environments distributed throughout the enterprise, all with centralized management and visibility.
Securent sells its products to enterprises or government agencies that need to control access to sensitive applications or confidential information, including customer data, employee records, product plans, or financial statements. Securent’s customers are assured that their customers, partners, contractors, employees, and auditors get appropriate and context-dependent levels of access to sensitive applications and confidential information. Today, many Fortune 500 customers are realizing the significant cost, time to market, and compliance benefits of Securent’s EMS. Securent’s patent-protected product and market leadership have been recognized by leading industry analyst firms such as Gartner, Burton Group, and Forrester.
Securent is headquartered in Mountain View, Calif., with sales offices throughout the U.S., and development in Hyderabad, India. The company is backed by funding from Greylock Partners and ONSET Ventures.
