Device Certificate in nFactor as an EPA component

Device Certificate can be configured in nFactor as an EPA component. Device certificate can appear as any factor as a part of EPA.

Following are the benefits of configuring Device Certificate in nFactor as an EPA component.

  • The failure in device certificate validation does not result in a logon failure. Based on the configuration, the logon can proceed and the user can be placed under groups with limited access.

  • Because the Device Certificate check is policy driven, you can selectively allow or block access of your corporate intranet resources based on Device Certificate authentication. For example, Device Certificate authentication can be used to provide conditional access to the Office 365 application only on the corporate managed laptops.

Device certificate validation cannot be a part of a periodic EPA scan.

Important:

  • By default, Windows mandates admin privileges for accessing device certificates. To add the device certificate check for non-admin users, you must install the VPN plug-in of the same version as the EPA plug-on on the device.

  • You can add multiple CA certificates to the gateway and validate the device certificate.
