idenprotect Enabled Desktop
idenprotect’s Password-Free Technology for Desktop Platforms
With support for Windows, MacOS and Linux, idenprotect provides a simple, consistent and secure authentication solution that will be embraced by IT users throughout your organisation.
Does your organization require users to access their desktop and laptop computers with a password? If so, you will be familiar with the problems this causes. Research suggests that on average a user wastes 24 hours per year logging in instead of working on the things they have been hired to do. There is a clear opportunity for organizations that are looking to increase efficiency and to cut down on waste.
Unfortunately, far from improving efficiency many organisations feel compelled to move in the opposite direction. In a bid to counter the growing menace of cyber threats, many IT departments opt to enforce further security controls, such as making passwords more complex or reducing password’s lifetimes, requiring the user to change them more frequently. Regrettably this leads to significant user dissatisfaction, marked increases in IT spending in managing and supporting many more password resets and unlocks. As an unintended but understandable consequence of further controls being applied many users decide to write down their passwords or share them, further amplifying security issues.
Working with the native features and standards within today’s desktop platforms, idenprotect’s desktop client plug-in for Windows, MacOS and Linux ensures a consistent and familiar user experience for your users. idenprotect takes care of the login process and supports a number of authentication protocols including Kerberos and certificate-based authentication, ensuring a fit within your organization.
If you want to save money and free up time for your users by removing the complexities and frustrations of password-based desktop logins, whilst ensuring a higher level of security, then choose idenprotect.
