Seamless Passwordless Adoption: Challenges & Solutions
Discover how to overcome hurdles in passwordless adoption with PKI, Cloud RADIUS, and adaptive authentication.| SecureW2
In PKI, certificate lifespans have always been a balancing act between security and operational simplicity. The industry standard has preferred longer-lived certificates valid for one year, and sometimes even for two to three years. Longer-lived certificates require fewer renewals and fewer touchpoints, which means reduced human error. But in recent years, a new approach has […] The post Short-Lived Certificates: Worth the Hype or Operational Headache? appeared first on SecureW2.| SecureW2
In order to successfully configure a WPA2-Enterprise network, a RADIUS server is a must. The RADIUS authorizes and authenticates users signing into the network and eliminates any speculation into who is using your network. A properly configured RADIUS server can garner your organization tremendous advantages in regards to network security. However, many network security professionals […] The post How to Create a Cloud-Based RADIUS Server appeared first on SecureW2.| SecureW2
Trust rules how the world works. It’s the foundation of personal relationships, how we choose who to do business with, and how we grant people (and now non-human identities) access to critical systems and information. Despite how important it is, there is a shockingly low amount of education around trust. What does it actually mean? […] The post JoinNow 8.0: Adaptive Defense, ACME for Server Certs, and More! appeared first on SecureW2.| SecureW2
Certificates are far superior to credentials and mitigate many of the vulnerabilities associated with pre-shared keys. They enhance the user experience by facilitating network access and removing password-related friction induced by password reset and complexity policies. Certificates also grant identity context by associating identities with devices, allowing administrators to decode SSL encryption and monitor device […] The post Configure Google SCEP Certificate Automatic Enrollment Profi...| SecureW2
