SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct 17, 2006 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Covad Communications Group, Inc. (DVW) , a leading national provider of integrated voice and data communications, announced today it is deploying Sun Java System Identity Manager. This deployment of Sun's Identity Manager will benefit Covad by eliminating the manual employee provisioning process, enabling the company to more effectively manage its employee user identities, increase efficiencies and reduce costs.

"Sun Java System Identity Manager gives us an exceptional platform for managing employee profiles and permissions, which enhances our overall enterprise security while allowing us to reduce operational costs," said Cornelia Pool, vice president of software and information systems for Covad. "This deployment mirrors automated processes we have long had in place for our customers. It greatly reduces the time it takes to get employees and contractors up and running productively, while making it easy to change employee access privileges and instantly and securely cancel employee accounts when their tenure ends."

Covad, working with software partners Persistent Systems and LCN Technology, has deployed Identity Manager to provide visibility and control over employee accounts and access privileges from a central location. Identity Manager provides role- and rules-based provisioning and enables Covad to set policies on users, organizations, resources, roles or groups, ensuring that its corporate security requirements are automatically enforced. In addition, the Sun solution helps to provide Covad with the ability to easily review the status of access privileges at any time, which both improves audit performance and helps achieve compliance with governmental mandates.

"Companies are increasingly responding to the need to protect sensitive data, increase business process efficiencies, and implement effective security controls across their entire organization," said Sara Gates, vice president, Identity Management and SOA at Sun Microsystems, Inc. "The Sun Java System Identity Management Suite is helping leading-edge companies like Covad automate their identity management processes, reduce costs and help meet the challenges of regulatory compliance."

Covad is focused on growing profitably and emphasizes solutions that generate improved productivity and cost savings. The company invests in advanced software solutions, like Sun Java System Identity Manager, that position it to capture growing demand in the $30 billion small business telecommunications market.
