Ping Identity is an Identity and Access Management software corporation that has participated in the development of open standards for identity federation and IAM. Ping Identity has co-organized IAM industry conferences considered preeminent since 2002[1], and was among the first organizations to demonstrate interoperability using SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect, SCIM, Liberty, and with Connect.gov.
Founded in 2002, Ping Identity’s software uses open standards and principles of federated identity, to enable organizations to provide users with single sign-on (SSO), such as for employees at work, for customers accessing online services, or for commercial partners sharing resources across the Internet. The company’s solutions extend across cloud, mobile, social and enterprise environments.[2]
Ping Identity has contributed to the authoring of the open standards related to identity federation and Identity and Access Management, including SAML [2,65], OAuth [1,71], SCIM [21],OpenID Connect [22], NAPPS [59], OpenID Account Chooser [75], OpenID [22], WS-Trust [89], Liberty, and OpenToken.[90][3,4,66]
Ping Identity has over 1,400 global customers, including half of Fortune 100 companies [42], in banking, healthcare, finance, insurance, manufacturing, education, entertainment.[69] With headquarters in Denver, CO, Ping Identity has satellite offices in London, Waltham, MA, San Francisco, CA, Vancouver British Columbia, and distribution channels throughout the world. Ping is considered well poised and well funded to play a role in the future of IAM.[45]
Ping Identity is funded by its own revenue and private investors, backed by W Capital Partners, DFJ Growth, General Catalyst Partners, Draper Fisher Jurvetson, Volition Capital, Triangle Peak Partners, SAP Ventures, and Appian Ventures.[46]
