WALLIX Trustelem

What is WALLIX Trustelem?

WALLIX Trustelem is a European Identity-as-a-Service (IDaaS) platform - Single Sign-On, Multi-Factor Authentication, and Identity Federation in the cloud. European vendor with data in EU = GDPR compliance.

Main functions:

• SSO - single login to all applications
• MFA - multi-factor authentication
• Identity Federation - SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect
• Directory Sync - synchronization with AD/LDAP

Common problems:

• Users have dozens of passwords
• Password fatigue = weak passwords or post-it notes
• No MFA for SaaS applications
• Each application = separate user management
• US-based IDaaS vs European regulations (GDPR)

FAQ

How does it differ from Azure AD? Azure AD is part of Microsoft ecosystem. Trustelem is independent European IDaaS. For organizations with multi-vendor environment or GDPR requirements - Trustelem may be a better choice.

Can I use it with WALLIX Bastion? Yes. Trustelem + Bastion = complete IAM + PAM solution. Users log in through Trustelem SSO, admins additionally through Bastion with session recording.

What MFA methods are available? TOTP (authenticator app), Push notifications, SMS, Email OTP, FIDO2/WebAuthn (passwordless).

How many apps are in the catalog? 1000+ pre-built connectors. For apps without connector - custom SAML/OIDC setup possible.

Does nFlo deploy Trustelem? Yes. SSO deployments, MFA configuration, AD integration, SaaS app onboarding. Often combined with WALLIX Bastion.
