Case Study: Belden achieves secure IAM and SSO across complex applications with Forum Sentry from Forum Systems

Belden secures SSO across 10,000+ employees with Forum Systems

Belden Inc., a global company of over 10,000 employees specializing in data transmission and security, faced complex identity and access management (IAM) and single sign-on (SSO) challenges. These difficulties arose from their growth through acquisitions, which resulted in a multitude of unique network configurations and identity infrastructures. After evaluating over ten other industry vendors, Belden selected Forum Systems and their product, Forum Sentry, to address these integration issues.

Forum Systems implemented Forum Sentry to provide a single security model and enable SSO across all of Belden's applications. The solution successfully integrated internal applications like Tableau and SharePoint, mobile applications, and cloud applications such as Salesforce.com. As a result, Belden reduced or eliminated manually coded solutions, achieved deployment with minimal network disruption, and now manages the platform with a small team.
