PortalGuard Features

Process of providing credentials and logging into multiple systems is easy and intuitive for users

Supports required 3rd party Authentication Technologies. Example systems: bioMetric, passwords, key cards, token based systems, etc.

Provides support for Multi-Factor authentication, so users are required to provide multiple factors to authenticate. For example, something they know, Something they have or something they are.

Support SSO via Web agents, proxy agents, agent-less, SAML or oAuth and WS-Federation authentication and authorization Web services depending upon the application and business use case

Can serve as the identity provider to external service providers so that when the user logs into a service, instead of providing credentials to the service provider, the service provider trusts the identity provider to validate the credentials.

Controls access to legacy applications, web based applications, network resources and servers while employees are on the companies local area network.

Controls access to legacy applications, web based applications, networks resources while employees are outside the local area network.

Controls access to users that are not company employees that are either within the companies local area network or outside the network

Enables users to use their own device to access company applications.

Installation process is easy and flexible.

Options for resetting and enforcing password policies

Provides Administration tools/console that are easy to use and learn for routine maintenance tasks

Easily provisions new systems, platforms or applications using configuration and not customization.

Users can set, change passwords without interaction from IT staff

Encrypts all data transfers using end-to-end encryption.

Provides audit trails to monitor useage to reduce fraud.

Complies with regulations for strong customer authentication such as KYC, PSD2, and others.

Keep identity attributes consistent across applications whether the change is made in the provisioning system or the application.

Enables administrators to create access policies and applies policy controls throughout request and provisioning processes.

Provides or integrates with a cloud based directory option that contains all user names and attributes.

Supports Endpoint access control to multiple operating systems

Allows user authentication to be honored by all the hosts in two or more domains

Support access to browser based applications across required browser types

Provides required failover mechanisms to ensure if one server, network, etc fails users are still able able to authenticate

Contains pre-built and custom reporting tools to required to manage business

Provides mechanism for auditing authentication for trouble shooting purposes.

Can call and pass credentials to third party web services.

Sends a one-time passcode (OTP) via SMS.

Provides a one-time passcode (OTP) via voice-call.

Sends a one-time passcode (OTP) via email.

Supports hardware tokens, which are often USB-sized, fob-like devices that store codes.

Offers software tokens, which are applications installed on a mobile phone, wearable devices, or desktops and generate time-based one-time passcodes (TOTP) that a user can easily copy. Software tokens work both online and offline.

Allows biometric factors such as fingerprints, faceprints, voiceprints, or other biometric information to be used as an authentication factor.

Offers mobile push authentication, which is a user-friendly method that does not require a user to copy a code, but rather accept or deny an authentication using a mobile application. Mobile push authentication only works when a user is connected to the internet.

Analyzes users' IP addresses, devices, behaviors and identities to authenticate a user.

Offers encrypted backup recovery stored by the vendor.

Enables a seamless customer experience with self-registration and self-service functions, including account creation and preference management.

Verifies user identity with authentication, which may include multiple multi-factor authentication methods.

Scales to support growing a customer base.

Captures and manages a customer's consent and preferences to comply with data privacy laws such as GDPR and CCPA.

Offers users the option to sign in with social media accounts.

Integrates with directories or other data stores that house customer data to create a complete view of a customer.

Offers FIDO2-enabled authentication method

Works with hardware security keys

Offer users multiple ways to authenticate including, but not limited to: mobile push on trusted devices, FIDO-enabled devices, physical security keys, keycards, smart watches, biometrics, QR codes, desktop app + pin, and others.

Offers solutions when users are offline or do not have access to a mobile phone.

Offers single sign-on functionalities to end users, allowing them to authenticate once and be given access to all of their company accounts.

Enforces user-access policies based on individual, role type, group membership or other factors to prevent unauthorized access to company systems and data.

Authenticates users prior to granting access to company systems.

Offers multi-factor authentication methods to verify a user's identity.

Connections use open standards such as SAML or RADIS.

Integrates with identity and access management (IAM) solutions to manage workforce authentication.

Integrates with customer identity and access management (ICAM) solutions to manage customer authentication.

Allows users to set, change passwords easily without interaction from IT staff.

Accommodates multiple languages.

Provides support for Multi-Factor authentication, so users are required to provide multiple factors to authenticate. For example, something they know, Something they have or something they are.

Uses biometric trait or characteristic to authenticate. Additional hardware may be required to support this type.

Provides authentication capabilities outside standard authentication methods such as MFA and biometric .

Able to assign authentication requirements for different levels of users, such as more robust authentication for senior level executives.

Provides an IAM solution for on-prem systems.

Provides an IAM solution for cloud-based systems.

Provides reporting functionality.

Log and report all modifications to user roles and access rights.

Provide standardized reports for regulatory compliance and audits.

Offers an easy to understand user interface to make setup smooth.

Grant access based on user attributes, location, device posture or risk.

Automate onboarding, offboarding, and access reviews throughout user lifecycles.

Enable users to reset passwords and update profiles without admin support.

Identify unusual access patterns using machine learning models.

Dynamically adjust access policies based on risk and AI-generated insights.

Suggest appropriate user roles based on usage patterns and peer behavior.

Possesses AI-driven triggers to determine when to require MFA or stronger authentication rather than always requiring it.

Builds profiles of known devices/environments per user and flags deviations such as new devices, new networks, and/or suspicious locations as higher risk.

Spot fraudulent behavior, such as account takeover attempts, credential stuffing, bots, and brute force attacks through the use of AI.

Uses machine learning to analyze past authentication events and suggest optimizations to security policies (e.g. thresholds, triggers) or to adjust rules over time.

Leverages AI to assign a risk score to a login attempt based on context, device, IP, historical patterns to dynamically decide whether to prompt for MFA, additional challenges, or allow seamless login.

Monitors behavioral signals including typing patterns, mouse movement, and/or touch/swipe dynamics to verify user identity either at login or continuously after login.

Uses computer vision, facial recognition, or other biometrics during onboarding or at risk events, with AI-based liveness checks to prevent spoofing or replay attacks.

Generates dynamic prompts to guide users through account recovery workflows.

Implements artificial intelligence to filter, rewrite, or block prompts that attempt to access unauthorized data, escalate privileges improperly, exploit system weaknesses, or otherwise re-provision customer access permissions.
