San Francisco-based cybersecurity platform, Circle Security, announced a joint integration with the ForgeRock Identity Platform to enhance their security features and prevent evolving cybersecurity threats. The Circle Security integrated node provides a credential-free authentication API that enhances security by minimizing the dependence on usernames and passwords, securely binding devices to identities and ensuring data flows throughout identity journeys. With this pre-built on-premises integrated node, businesses can consolidate identity authentication and privacy protection capabilities into a single unified API. This enables enterprises to stay ahead of ever-evolving threats and achieve their security goals.
The combination of Circle Security and ForgeRock strengthens customer’s security posture on two critical fronts. Firstly, secure and frictionless data access across applications, browsers, and devices without the need for usernames and passwords with cryptographic, credential-free authentication. Secondly, continuous risk-based delegated MFA as a step-up re-authentication or identity verification in existing user workflows for high-risk use cases, contexts, and user profiles.
“Circle Security and ForgeRock share a commitment to excellence, innovation, and customer satisfaction. By joining forces, we are bringing the best of both worlds to our clients and enhancing their digital security posture. Our foundational technology built on a patented decentralized architecture helps developers and enterprises elevate their security posture to Prevention-first from Detect & Respond,” said Phani Nagarjuna, Founder & CEO of Circle Security.
The integration of Circle Security and ForgeRock’s Trust Network technology partnership will provide customers with faster time-to-value and reduced cybersecurity risks and costs. “Together, we will bring cutting-edge security technology to businesses of all types and sizes around the world,” added Mr. Nagarjuna of Circle Security.
Unlike other cybersecurity platforms, Circle Security decentralizes security orchestration from the cloud to the endpoint while eliminating the need for user credentials. This dual approach delivers the impact of prevention from credential-driven data breaches and protection from cloud attacks. Enterprises can deploy Circle in minutes as a device-native service, a mobile app, or a zero-footprint browser-based solution, while developers can integrate Circle’s API-first technology into their apps, websites, products, and services with low/no code.
With the availability of the integrated node on the ForgeRock Marketplace, self-managed ForgeRock, and Circle Security customers can enjoy the benefits of no credential phishing or other credential-driven vulnerabilities and reduced data exposure.

Circle Security’s joint integration with ForgeRock has combined two innovative technologies committed to delivering superior customer satisfaction. With its cutting-edge security technology, Circle Security and ForgeRock aim to make cybersecurity accessible for businesses worldwide, providing comprehensive security features that will lead to faster time-to-value and lessened cybersecurity risks and costs.
