Idaptive Next-Gen Access
Idaptive added endpoint security and passwordless capabilities to its Next-Gen Access platform, helping organizations with a distributed workforce simplify the onboarding of remote workers and ensuring that endpoint devices that do not connect to corporate networks are secured.
Once a new Idaptive Mac or Windows Agent is deployed on the device, Idaptive said users can immediately log in with their IT-provided credentials and complete the enrollment process without being connected to a VPN or corporate network. Prior to this update, Idaptive said remote users had to establish a direct connection to the corporate network via VPN to complete the enrollment process.
User login for both Windows and Mac endpoints can now also be protected with Adaptive Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). By utilizing Adaptive MFA, Idaptive said companies can require remote and local users to pass additional authentication challenges during the process of logging into their devices, adding an extra layer of protection before access to endpoints is granted.
