In recent years, organizations have become extensively competitive due to the drastic changes in the business landscape. But how do companies grow and scale in such a competitive environment? An appropriate answer to this question would be adopting the right technologies to drive their business ahead. Simultaneously, enterprises also need to ensure that these technologies provide a secure and reliable environment to carry out business with their customers and partners while also making the employees productive. This is where BeyondID enters the security services market with effective and end-to-end cybersecurity for businesses.

California-based BeyondID with offices throughout the USA specializes in developing secure, reliable, and cost-effective cloud and cybersecurity solutions. The company provides a complete package of security services tailored to an organization’s needs. These services are offered based on the Zero Trust security model, ensuring that every request for service access is verified and encrypted end-to-end before being accepted. “Our team understands that these requests, either from internal or external users, can prove to be harmful to companies, and we strive to eliminate that risk with Zero Trust security model. We are also helping firms become more active in defending their digital assets from all cyberattacks with this new outlook toward cybersecurity,” says Arun Shrestha, co-founder, and CEO of BeyondID.

The company has segregated its security services in three segments—consulting, implementation, and managed services— to facilitate a step-by-step execution. The BeyondID team begins the implementation of its services by first analyzing the clients’ business strategies and key objectives related to security, customer experience, and employee productivity. After gathering all the necessary information about the client’s business vision, the BeyondID team offers expert advice on which security services are to be implemented and how.

Thereafter, the company designs the final security infrastructure that includes identity and access management along with multifactor authentication, device and network security, workforce and customer lifecycle management, user behavior and analytics and online fraud detection and protection. “Our team adds these security features into the clients’ security architecture based on their requirements,” says Shrestha. In the last stage, BeyondID offers on-demand managed services, eliminating the need for the clients to hire and train employees to support the newly implemented security infrastructure.

In the past two years, BeyondID has collaborated with several clients and implemented numerous security projects, assuring significant benefits to each of them. One such example was with aerial imagery, data analytics, and geographic information system solution provider—EagleView Technologies—that worked with multiple insurance companies to provide comprehensive property data and high-resolution aerial imagery that expedite insurance claims following a catastrophic event. EagleView sought to improve overall customer experience to expand the business as well as to enhance workforce security. BeyondID helped the client by advising and deploying a security framework that enabled EagleView’s clients to securely access all the services offered online to expedite processing of insurance claims. BeyondID also helped the client to deploy modern Identity Cloud for its workforce to provide secure and seamless access to enterprise applications.

“We guide our clients to adopt security services and shield their data against any kind of breach while scaling the business. Our team strives to go beyond the central idea of being just a customer-centric company to ensure that every client has a long-term success,” says Shrestha. BeyondID helps enterprise customers acquire, deploy and manage cloud and security services. BeyondID focuses on cloud security and modern identity and access management based on Zero Trust security model, cloud transformation, compliance controls, customer experience including online fraud detection and protection solutions. To that end, BeyondID has formed the partnership with many best-in-class technologies such as Okta, SailPoint, BetterCloud, Shape Security and Workplace by Facebook. BeyondID is also expanding its partnering with Adobe, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Palo Alto Networks, Salesforce, VMware and Zscaler to offer more comprehensive cloud, identity and security solutions.

BeyondID Records Sixth Consecutive Year of Growth

Nation's leading financial, healthcare and retail companies trust BeyondID to help them provide secure total experiences based on its identity-first zero trust framework

SAN FRANCISCO, -- BeyondID, a leading managed identity solutions provider, today announced that the company recorded its sixth consecutive year of revenue growth. The company also expanded its customer base with industry-leading brands including Barracuda Networks, Boulder Community Health, H-E-B, Match Group, and Vista Equity Partners.

Addressing the demand for securing access to thousands of enterprise applications and data sources, the company introduced the BeyondID Integration Network, providing customers with migration and integration services at scale. And to meet the increasing need for continuous identity-based security, BeyondID launched its Security Operations Center (SOC), providing customers with 24/7/365 identity threat detection and remediation (ITDR) services to protect identity and user-driven endpoints.

"BeyondID has been instrumental in partnering with H-E-B to design, architect and implement a forward-looking identity provider solution," said Alan Feldman, Senior Director of Identity and Access Management at H-E-B, one of the largest private companies in America. "Their guidance and subject matter expertise has enabled H-E-B to meet immediate and evolving security compliance needs balanced with a seamless experience for user provisioning, single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, passwordless authentication, and integration."

Additionally, BeyondID was named Okta's 2023 Americas Partner of the Year, won the Fortress Cyber Security Organizational Excellence Award and was recognized as one of the top technology providers and consultants providing managed services for the second year in a row by CRN in the 2024 Security 100.

Looking forward, BeyondID will expand its zero trust services, integration network and security operations offerings through continuous innovation, by leveraging the synergies within its existing partner network and via new partnerships within identity management, governance, compliance, application, cloud and data security platforms.

"Our focus on zero trust solutions and identity-first protection led to another incredible year of innovation and growth for BeyondID," said Arun Shrestha, CEO and co-founder of BeyondID. "We are proud of the milestones achieved last year and will continue to innovate our solutions offerings and expand our relationships with industry-leading partners to meet the growing security demands of our customers."


BeyondID to Offer SMS Gateway Services in Partnership with Vonage

SAN FRANCISCO,-- BeyondID, a leading managed identity solutions provider, today announced the availability of SMS authentication, integration and managed services for Okta. The company has partnered with Vonage to provide these services to Okta customers who will no longer have SMS offered as part of their platform renewals beginning September 15, 2024.



Okta recently announced they will no longer offer SMS as two-factor authentication (2FA) within the Okta Identity Engine or Identity Manager (classic) platforms. All customers renewing on or after September 15 will be required to bring their own telecommunications provider to continue with SMS as a 2FA option for their employees and customers.



"Customers using the Okta platform who wish to continue their use of SMS as a 2FA authentication option can do so with BeyondID and Vonage," said Charles Fortune, co-founder and chief operating officer at BeyondID. "This service helps every Okta customer offer the most secure experience while maintaining the best possible user experience, but transitions like this do not happen overnight. A variety of factors may prevent many organizations from completely retiring SMS altogether. Our solution provides an option for companies who need an alternative."



BeyondID offers SMS integration and managed services for organizations of any size. There are three tiers of SMS services, all powered by Vonage:



SMS Gateway – an all-in-one solution managed and supported by BeyondID, perfect for SMB and mid-sized organizations

SMS API for Workforce – intended for international enterprise organizations with the need for higher volume and localized telephone numbers, hosted on AWS

SMS API for Consumer – custom solution based on customer volume, daily average users, session details and load balancing requirements.

BeyondID recommends getting ahead of renewal deadlines to manage the setup and testing process before Okta removes this service. Pricing is based on monthly SMS volume and the level of support required. More information is available at https://beyondid.com/solutions/sms-for-okta.
