PRESS RELEASE

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA – May 22, 2012 ─ Fox Technologies Inc, a Gold level member of Oracle® PartnerNetwork (OPN), today announced it has achieved Oracle Validated Integration of FoxT ServerControl 6.5.4 with Oracle Identity Management 9.1. The new web services-based connector from FoxT enables data interchange between Oracle Identity Manager and FoxT ServerControl. Now organizations have a way to add granular authentication and authorization policy enforcement to their existing Oracle Identity Management processes, plus fully control privileged user access to their systems and data. The FoxT Connector for Oracle Identity Manager is available immediately through FoxT.

To achieve Oracle Validated Integration, Oracle partners are required to meet a stringent set of requirements that are based on the needs and priorities of the customers.

Specifically, FoxT ServerControl working in conjunction with Oracle Identity Management enables organizations to:

• Define fine-grained access policies and correlate these with identities defined in the Oracle Identity Manager solution

• Provision each instance of the user account across diverse servers and domains and effectively manage the state change of those accounts

• Manage authorization and authentication through assignment of roles to groups of users

• Control privileged and functional account delegation without sharing passwords

• Consolidate detailed user access activity data including keystroke logs for automated audit and compliance reporting

• Create fine-grained sub-administration rules for delegation of management tasks to Help Desk operators, Sys Admins and others

• Re-validate and report on the actual current deployed state of user accounts for accurate recertification of account status

“Recent news on costly security breaches from insider fraud highlights the on-going challenge with keeping user access rights enforced and up-to-date,” said Subhash Tantry, CEO at FoxT. “Providing synchronization of identity and access management processes can make it easier for organizations to meet their compliance, security and operational goals.”

“Oracle Validated Integration applies a rigorous technical review and test process,” said Kevin O’Brien, senior director, ISV and SaaS Strategy, Oracle. “Achieving Oracle Validated Integration through Oracle PartnerNetwork gives our customers confidence that the integration between FoxT ServerControl 6.5.4 and Oracle Identity Management 9.1 has been validated and that the products work together as designed. This helps reduce risk and improves the implementation cycles for our joint customers.”
