Case Study: Leading Communications Company achieves secure, reliable IoT access for first responders with Ping Identity

Identity Management for IOT Protects Those Who Protect us

A longtime communications provider with roots in two‑way radios expanded into mobile broadband IoT to protect personal safety officers (PSOs) — enabling firefighters and rescue workers to share dispatch intelligence and sensor data in volatile situations. The company needed to secure and govern access to sensitive device and health data, provide fast and highly secure single sign‑on (SSO), and meet mission‑critical requirements for high availability, scalability and performance without relying on proprietary frameworks.

Ping’s customer identity and access management (CIAM) delivers secure, scalable identity storage, SSO, governance and open‑standards support to connect first responders and devices reliably. The deployment supports more users and cloud identity offerings with minimal resources, integrates across on‑premises, cloud and virtual environments and third‑party protocols, and provides convenient, secure access to life‑saving device data while meeting security best practices and regional privacy regulations.
