Strengthening Security with Multi-Factor Authentication for RADIUS
As technology evolves, so do the methods of cyberattacks, making traditional authentication vulnerable. This is where Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) steps in, offering an extra layer of defense. In this article, we delve into the synergy between MFA and RADIUS-enabled devices and software, exploring how this dynamic duo bolsters protection against modern security challenges and how to integrate multi-factor authentication for...
On-Premise 2FA vs Cloud-Based Authentication
The basic idea behind any type of multi-factor authentication is communication between an MFA device and a server. An MFA server can be set up either on-premise (locally within your company’s infrastructure) or in a cloud. Both approaches have their pros and cons. In this post, we aim to give you a comprehensive comparison of cloud multi-factor authentication vs on-premise 2FA solutions to help you choose the best 2-factor...
Active Directory Two-Factor Authentication
It is hard to manage multiple users and systems, especially when there are not even hundreds, but thousands of them in a network. That’s why businesses and organizations love Microsoft Active Directory. It allows for storing and managing all the information on the organization’s systems, users, their credentials, sites and whatever else you might think of in a network, in one place. But you must agree that this much of fundamentally...
