About

Our mission is to secure access to every enterprise application. Aglide SSO lets security and IT teams connect non-standard and legacy apps - from banking portals to social media logins - directly to their existing identity provider (Okta, Entra, OneLogin, Ping, etc.), with no need for app-side integration. Once connected, these apps behave like any other IdP-managed service: policies like MFA, Conditional Access, RBAC, and audit logging just work, and end users access them through SSO only. Customers use Aglide to secure both individual apps (e.g., legacy banking portals, Discord, Squarespace) and sensitive shared accounts (e.g., AWS root, social media). Our agentic identity technology means Aglide works with any app out of the box - no integration catalog, no custom scripting. Today, customers from fintech decacorns to global media companies rely on Aglide’s zero-trust, end-to-end encrypted platform to complete their identity stack.
