C1 Connectors: Connect Every App

4 min

Speaker: Russell Haering VP of Engineering

Learn how C1’s connector ecosystem makes it effortless to integrate any application into your identity security workflows, whether it’s SaaS, on-prem, or custom-built.

Main Takeaways

  • Integration is one of the biggest challenges in identity security because every application has its own identity layer and data model.

  • To solve this, C1 built Baton, an open source framework that standardizes how applications represent users, resources, entitlements, and grants.

  • The second challenge is that many organizations run hybrid environments with cloud, on-prem, and homegrown applications, not all of which have APIs or are internet-facing.

  • C1’s connector ecosystem addresses this with three types of connectors: out-of-the-box connectors, generic connectors, and custom connectors.

  • With this architecture, organizations can connect their entire environment in minutes, unify identity data, and gain visibility across every system.
