Migrate Legacy Applications to Modern Identity Platforms in Minutes with Datawiza

Are you considering building your own OAuth SSO proxy or identity-aware proxy? Unfortunately, this approach can take days or weeks, taking engineering resources away from other strategically important development work. And each additional application requires the same effort, so if you have hundreds or thousands of applications to migrate, the time and cost can become impossible to justify – even though the need is critical. According to our customers, a company with 200 employees can spend up to 500 hours integrating each application. The most common result is either inaction, leaving organizations vulnerable, or shifting resources to the migration project, slowing development timelines and ensuring missed deadlines.

When migrating a legacy application to a modern cloud-based identity management platform, developers must ensure they don’t inadvertently introduce new security vulnerabilities. But understanding the security nuances of the migration in a rapidly shifting technology environment requires a true security expert, which you may not have in-house. If you don’t have the security expertise on staff, you will need to hire someone or rely on an expensive consultant.

In addition to creating security risks, failing to migrate legacy applications to a modern Zero Trust environment is bad business. Administrators are forced to continue managing security and governance policies and user access in multiple places, which makes it harder for them to provide access to the tools users need when they need them. Users are also frustrated at having to log into multiple applications and finding that when their job status changes, they may have to wait days or even weeks to get access to their tools. Productivity plummets and shadow IT soars.
