Critical Path and Ilex Partner to Deliver Comprehensive Identity and Access Management Suite

Critical Path, Inc., a leading provider of messaging applications and enterprise solutions, today announced its partnership with Ilex and the launch of its Identity and Access Management Suite. Part of Critical Path's Memova(R) suite of applications, the Identity and Access Management Suite enables organizations to reduce costs, improve operational efficiencies, minimize security risks, enrich user experiences and streamline compliance.

The Identity and Access Management Suite addresses three key enterprise requirements with solutions for:

-- Data Management: A high-availability solution that synchronizes and streamlines the information management processes across an entire organization.

-- Identity and Access Control: An integrated solution that centralizes and automates secure access to information across the entire enterprise.

-- Business Process Management: A best-of-breed comprehensive process and workflow solution that enables rapid and easy resolutions to productivity and operational issues.

Critical Path has a proven history of providing identity management applications to some of the largest financial institutions, manufacturing and government bodies in the world including UBS, DHL, Merck, HM Revenue & Customs (Inland Revenue) and Rolls Royce. The Identity and Access Management Suite now encompasses integrated workflow and access management capabilities.

David Longley, VP Northern Europe, Critical Path, comments: "Our collaboration with Ilex will greatly benefit our mutual customers worldwide. The Identity and Access Management Suite goes well beyond identity management and encompasses capabilities like single sign on, provisioning, workflow management, data integration, security, password management, data management, process management -- all with high availability and robust reporting capabilities. Our modular approach also means companies can focus on solving key business issues, and then use the return on that investment to fund the next initiative."

Stephan Belloni, Product Marketing and Business Development Manager, Ilex adds: "Partnering with Critical Path is a great opportunity for Ilex and our customers. The Memova applications are a natural fit with our Meibo and Sign&go products, resulting in broader, more robust and scalable enterprise solutions.
