Authentication Service for Your Network
RADIUSaaS
Authentication Service for Your Network
RADIUSaaS offers easy and secure authentication for accessing network resources. It delivers the comfort, reliability, and scalability of a native cloud SaaS. From a protocol side, we support RADIUS as well as RadSec.
Authentication is based on certificates. RADIUSaaS can validate any certificate which can be used for client authentication. However, to be able to lock someone out of your network with a revoked certificate, choose a Certificate Authority (CA) that has an Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP). RADIUSaaS automatically generates XML configuration files for WIFI and LAN profiles.
RADIUSaaS is a pure Software as a Service (SaaS), that we run for you in our Microsoft Azure environment.
Why authenticate with certificates to access the network?
We believe that users should use their (Azure) Active Directory credentials as little as possible. Working password-less is state of the art and prevents identity theft. This is why we use certificates for network authentication. While authenticating with certificates, no credentials are transferred.
There is another benefit: device certificates are available for the operating system prior to user login. Therefore, network connections can be established before Windows user logon.
And finally, it is not a big deal: Certificates and WIFI profiles can be deployed to clients easily. You just need a Certificate Authority (e.g. SCEPman – super-easy) and a device management system, like Microsoft Intune or JAMF.
