Salesforce.com has released a cloud-based application which aims to help IT administrators consolidate user authentication and application access control into a single solution.

Salesforce gave its customers a year in advance to prepare for its multi-factor authentication (MFA) requirement across its platforms. The compliance date arrived the first day of this month.

Salesforce has already rolled out several tools that aim to let business users create their own mobile apps, and on Tuesday it unified them into a suite and added some new services on the back end.
