The 1Kosmos integration with ForgeRock Access Manager provides customers:
- A better user experience for customer and workforce use cases
- Multi-factor, frictionless access to the ForgeRock Access Manager console for administrators
- Increased Security
- Reduced Password Reset Costs
In addition, the integration of 1Kosmos BlockID with ForgeRock enables organizations to implement a zero-trust security model by verifying with certainty the identity of individuals accessing ForgeRock protected consumer, corporate and government systems, applications and data.
