Multi-Factor Authentication Edmond, OK
Protect your business
Secure your organization’s infrastructure.
Protect your business with ArcLight multi-factor and two-factor authentication solutions.
Multi-factor authentication, or MFA, secures your work environment and the people in it. It protects the devices being used by your employees without requiring complicated policies or cumbersome resets. Organizations make it easy on their employees by providing a variety of authentication solutions, either multi-factor or two-factor authentication (2FA), to ensure that digital users are who they say they are by requiring at least two pieces of evidence to prove their identity.
ArcLight has deployed two factor authentication and multi-factor authentication solutions for many clients in the Edmond, Oklahoma area. Adding 2FA solutions or MFA solutions to your business network strengthens your IT security and network defenses.
Our solution is designed with the user in mind because we know the most effective security solution is one your users actually use. Our solution allows your users to easily access their secondary access method quickly. Your users can simply verify their identity using one of the many methods we provide; you choose which methods work best for your organization.
Multiple Flexible and Easy Ways to Authenticate
SMS 2FA
SMS two-factor authentication validates the identity of a user by texting a security code to their mobile device. The user then enters the code into the application or website they are trying to gain access to.
TOTP 2FA
The Time-Based One Time Password (TOTP) 2FA method locally generates a key on the device a user is attempting to access. The security key is typically a QR code that the user scans with their mobile device to generate a series of numbers. Those are then entered by the user into the website or application to gain access. The passcodes generated by authenticators expire after a certain period of time, and a new one will be generated the next time a user logs in to an account. TOTP is part of the Open Authentication (OAUTH) security architecture.
Push-Based 2FA
Push-based 2FA improves on SMS and TOTP 2FA by adding additional layers of protection, while simultaneously improving ease of use for end users. Push-based 2FA confirms a user’s identity with multiple factors of authentication that other methods cannot. Duo Security is the leading provider of push-based 2FA.
U2F Tokens
U2F tokens secure two-factor authentication by using a physical USB port to validate the location and identity of a user attempting to login to a website or application. To use a U2F token, a user inserts the token into their device and presses the button located on the top of the device. Once the token is activated, the user enters their PIN and gains access to their account(s).
Keychain Token
A simple keychain hardware token generates an authentication token/code at the push of a small green button. It's easy, quick and doesn’t require your employees to have a mobile application to gain access to your business critical systems.
WebAuthn
Created by the FIDO (Fast IDentity Online) Alliance and W3C, the Web Authentication API is a specification that enables strong, public key cryptography registration and authentication. WebAuthn (Web Authentication API) allows third parties like Duo to tap into built-in biometric authenticators on smartphones and laptops, letting users quickly authenticate with the tools they already have at their fingertips.
Passwords Are No Longer Enough
Don’t let one employee’s re-use of passwords compromise your company's security and destroy your reputation.
Let’s face it, it’s very difficult to remember and maintain passwords for every website, computer, remote office, or third-party application used nowadays. Regrettably, many of those third-party systems are easily compromised. You run the risk of spilling your employees' or clients' information onto the dark web where criminals sell your company email addresses and passwords for mere pennies. Once an attacker has your email address, they also have your company name by simply googling the email domain. They typically also have your first name, last name, and often even commonly used security questions. Once armed with this information, it’s very easy for cyber criminals to begin their attack against your public applications, websites or bank portals.
