Challenges

  • In general, many enterprises and organizations use weak security authentication solutions, making it easy for cybercriminals to gain unlawful access. 
  • Moreover, the wave towards phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication and adopting FIDO credentials overwhelms organizations with how to deploy and manage credentials.
  • Further, increased tighter government regulations raise awareness of the issues but still do not provide a clear path for enterprises to adopt.
  • Finally, every entity differs based on industry, employees, and infrastructure. Consequently, each organization requires a tailored solution to manage its preferred credentials that fit its budget and ecosystem.

Solution

  • To start, with vSEC:CMS and vSEC:CLOUD, organizations can issue credentials to employees, personalize them, and orchestrate their lifecycle – directly from Versasec off-the-shelf products and the cloud.
  • Additionally, Versasec integrates seamlessly with IdPs to present admins and users with the best experience.
  • Furthermore, say goodbye to manual, repetitive, unsafe, time-consuming tasks by replacing them with automation by using pre-existing templates and ready-to-go workflows.
  • Not only that, Versasec products and cloud allow not just for the orchestration of enterprise FIDO credentials but also PKI, and physical access. In summary, one platform for all enterprise passwordless credentials.

Operator

As an Operator, you control audit, repository, and reports with precision. No need to worry about credential locations or assignments. Tailor permissions for different roles, from administrators to help desk, ensuring precise access.

Automation

Automate each step of the process, rely on our technical expertise, and create templates you can trust on! With our many APIs and integrations, you are able to automate the complete lifecycle to have the credentials updated and changed on events triggered from the outside such as employee offboarding and role changes. 

Issuance

Choose flexible credential options for secure issuance, re-issuance, and revocation. Whether remote, in-person, or hybrid, Versasec ensures that each step is controlled, audited, and secured.

Versatile Enrollment Methods

We are here for your FIDO enterprise orchestration journey. Choose from one of our enrollment methods, without compromising security. Our versatile enrollment methods are tailored to your needs.

Alternative A: Well-suited for when an in-person meeting before issuance is required. The operator issues the device to the user, and the user sets the PIN.

Alternative B: Perfect for remote teams that want central issuance. The operator issues and distributes the credential to the user, who, at a later point, sets their PIN. 

Alternative C: Ideal for large deployments that prefer centralized onboarding with no user self-service. The operator issues devices in the batch; the system sets and delivers the PIN.

Alternative D: Optimal for large deployments that prefer self-service and distributed teams. User issues and sets their PIN.

FAQs

What FIDO Authenticators does Versasec support?

We’re glad you asked! FIDO tokens and smartcards are being added to our supported credentials page monthly. Please contact your Versasec representative for the latest updates and what is coming in the future. If you have any preferences, we’d love to know!

How do I choose between FIDO and PKI?

The paradox between FIDO and PKI comes down to the organization’s goals, users, budget, and systems in place. If you’re asking this question, you’re on the right track. Consider using one of our consulting partners in your region if you need further guidance, or our professional services team, specialized in FIDO enterprise orchestration.

You do not have to choose you can have both as vSEC:CMS can manage PKI and FIDO combined credentials to solve all authentication and PKI use cases. For more information, watch our FIDO webinar, PIV and FIDO: Defense Against Cyber Threats.

How is FIDO2 stronger than Passwords and OTP authentication methods?

According to the “Recommended Best Practices for Administrators on Identity and Access Management” by the US National Security Agency (NSA) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), “Authentication systems are the front doors to enterprise networks, applications and data. As such, attackers are highly focused on finding and exploiting authentication vulnerabilities.” 

They present a chart ranking the weakest to strongest types of multi-factor authentication. In the weakest, they place SMS or voice MFA. In the middle, app-based MFA, including OTP and mobile-push notifications. At the strongest, phishing-resistant MFA, including public-key infrastructure (PKI) and FIDO.
