Cisco Duo Access
Complete Device Visibility
Secure Cloud and BYOD
Many security solutions are too isolated to use data from different areas of risk in order to make informed security decisions.
Device Security Checks
A smarter solution analyzes several factors, taking into account the risk of the user, their device, location, and other attributes before granting access to an application.
In addition to prompting users with two-factor authentication to verify their identity, Duo Access checks every device for:
- Secure, up-to-date software
- Enabled device health and security settings on laptop, desktop and mobile devices
- Location and network data
Duo’s Unified Endpoint Visibility dashboard gives you actionable data you can use to create custom device access policies to restrict access to your applications from risky devices.
Duo Access Features
Adaptive Authentication
Enforce contextual, adaptive authentication policies to grant or block authentication attempts based on user role; device security (biometrics, screen lock and disk encryption), geo-location, network controls and use of anonymous networks, like Tor.
Access Policies
Duo Access also gives you the option to apply policies to groups and restrict access based on location and anonymous networks.
Prompt Users to Update Risky Devices
Secure devices by enabling your users to update their own out-of-date or inadequately-secured laptops, desktops, and mobile devices. Using Duo's Self-Remediation feature, you can automatically prompt users to update their software and security settings at each login attempt.
Risk-Based Authentication
Duo's Risk-Based Authentication solution evaluates potential threat signals at each login attempt and adjusts security requirements, in real time, to protect trusted users and frustrate attackers.
Complete Device Visibility
Most organizations significantly underestimate how many different devices access their corporate applications - in addition to corporate-issued devices, users log into work applications using their personal smartphones and laptops. Traditional device management solutions require the installation of agents, which can lead to bad user experiences, privacy concerns, and limited coverage of devices.
Device Insight Without Agents
Duo Access gives you insight into every device accessing your corporate applications without deploying agents. Duo’s Unified Endpoint Visibility shows you every device on your network, not just the ones your company manages. This can lower deployment support and ongoing management, saving you time while providing complete visibility.
Additional Features
Health and Security Checkup
Duo Mobile's Security Checkup (available on iOS and Android), and Device Health application (for Windows and MacOS computers), empower your users to maintain the health and security hygiene of their devices.
Continuous Trust Monitoring
Keep an eye on user behavior and continually verify device trust with Duo Trust Monitor. Trust Monitor ingests authentication information and creates a behavioral baseline. It then surfaces anomalies in users' daily workflows. These events can inform proactive investigations and provide insight into the efficacy of your security policies. Duo Trust Monitor events can also easily complement existing SIEM solutions via API.
