Multi-Factor Authentication
Protect who can access your online accounts and apps with itro's multi-factor authentication (MFA) security
If someone guesses or steals your login credentials, itro MFA’s two step identity check blocks unauthorised access to your online accounts and apps. As well as preventing network disruptions and data breaches caused by weak or stolen user credentials, we deliver and manage itro MFA from the cloud for easy set-up and management.
Moreover, our solution goes beyond traditional multi-factor authentication by incorporating innovative ways to identify users, such as our Mobile Device DNA. With our large ecosystem of 3rd party integrations, the strong protection we give you is consistently deployed wherever you need it, such as across your network, VPNs and cloud applications.
Even non-technical users find our mobile app easy and convenient to use.
What Is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?
MFA, also known as 2FA, adds a second identity check to online login requests.
After entering your user name and password to access an online account or app, itro MFA requests an additional factor to authenticate the request is not malicious.
Authentication factors include:
- Something you know (password, PIN)
- Something you have (token, mobile phone)
- Something you are (fingerprint, face)
When logging on using itro MFA you will need:
- your password
- to approve your request via your mobile authenticator
- the correct mobile phone DNA; and
- (depending on your phone model) your fingerprint
to access your accounts and apps.
Benefits of MFA
Effective MFA Protection with Mobile Device DNA
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) requires users to supply the information they know (username and password), and information provided on something they have, as well as other factors that can be associated with the specific individual. AuthPoint provides a highly secure MFA product using a push message, QR code, or one-time password (OTP); and our mobile device DNA matches the authorized user’s phone when granting access to systems and applications. Therefore, an attacker who clones a user’s device in an attempt to access a protected system would be blocked, since the device DNA would differ.
Easy-to-Use AuthPoint Mobile App
WatchGuard’s AuthPoint app allows users to authenticate right from their own phone! No need to carry key fobs or thumb drives; instead install and activate the AuthPoint app in seconds, and then use it to authenticate from a smartphone. It enables speedy push-based authentication as well as offline authentication using QR codes with the phone’s camera. The app is available in 11 languages and downloads free of charge from the AppStore and Google Play.
Broad Coverage with Web Single Sign-On
itro’s ecosystem includes dozens of 3rd party integrations with AuthPoint – allowing companies to require users to authenticate before accessing sensitive Cloud applications, VPNs and networks. AuthPoint supports the SAML standard, permitting users to log in once to access a full range of applications and services. In addition, the secure login feature provides online and offline authentication to Windows and Mac machines using the AuthPoint app.
