WatchGuard AuthPoint

We use WatchGuard AuthPoint to provide additional security to administrator access to workstations and servers. All servers and workstations are now protected with multi-factor authentication when logging in with an administrator account. With the 3.2.x version, User Account Control has also been added, greatly increasing the protection of our infrastructure by preventing unwanted control from compromised admin accounts. Originally requested by our insurance broker for us to have a cyber insurance policy, WatchGuard AuthPoint has become an indispensable tool in protecting our environment.

Helps organizations enhance their security by requiring users to provide multiple forms of verification before accessing sensitive systems and data. Businesses typically use a VPN to give remote employees access to internal applications and data, or to create a single shared network between multiple office locations. In both cases, the ultimate goal is to prevent web traffic — particularly traffic containing proprietary data — from being exposed on the open Internet.

We use it to safely authenticated our VPN connections. We needed a safe way to connect into our office resources and have multi factor authentication for the users. Without it, we would not really have a secure connection for our clients to access internal resources while having a WatchGuard firewall.

I needed a VPN that supported 2FA and was easy to manage. This checked all the boxes for me!

We use WatchGuard AuthPoint as our MFA tool for all workstations and web portals. We utilize both the dongles and the cell phone apps without issue. We rated the product an 8 out 10 due to the fact you currently cannot set a time limit on MFA. If someone forgets their token you are able to tell it not to ask again for so long, however you're unable to do this for day to day operations. It would be a nice feature update to set 2,4,6 hr limit that does not require re authenticating. In our environment computers lock after 10 minutes so some employees have to re auth quite a bit. Other than that it is a solid product the cost is very competitive.

WatchGuard AuthPoint provides our organization with robust two factor authentication for our remote VPN users that gives an added security layer while keeping individual user deployment complexity low. After setup by our consultant, new user configuration is simple, and the added complexity of a hardware token or smartphone app is offset by the convenience of SSO with our AD Domain.

It is used as MFA for signing in to computers. Previously, we had issues where the user's account was not secure if a password was compromised within the organization. After applying Watchguard Authpoint, we fixed this issue, and now we can secure logins with MFA-level security. I strongly suggest using this product.

Two factor authentication can be difficult to implement. Our implementation of the WatchGuard AuthPoint product was pretty flawless and we were able to get it done less than a couple of hours. We need a quick way to authenticate to our virtual private network connections for support of the network from offsite locations. The WatchGuard AuthPoint product meets that specification very easily. The integration with the Apple products and the Apple Watch on the apps makes it relatively easy to authenticate the login session.

We use AuthPoint for our desktop, server and VPN login MFA. It has kept out so many hacking attacks on our network and servers. We have been extremely impressed with the ease of use and installation of this software. We had concerns because we have implemented "other" MFA software products and have been extremely unhappy with how they have performed.

We use Authpoint to better secure VPN for our remote staff, approximate 85% of our staff are remote and work from both home, client sites and Public venues. MFA is crucial if staff are working remotely. Authpoint was selected based on cost, ease of use and configuration, and overall compatability with our firewalls (Watchguard.) Though we use Office 365 and SharePoint intensively, we have specific internal apps that staff must use and specific data sets kept behind our firewalls that can only be accessed remotely when on VPN. Securing the connection is essential. Authpoint is an important part in our multi-layered desktop and communications security.

We use Authpoint as our Multi Factor Authentication. The problem this addresses is unwanted access from the public.
