AuthControl® MSP Overview

License flexibility

MSP’s and MSSP’s are able to purchase AuthControl® MSP (a software-based Command & Control appliance), licences and tokens to enable the delivery of the service.  License Manager allows simple and versatile management of a pool of licences, which can be allocated across managed AuthControl Sentry® instances.

Licenses can be allocated, revoked and reallocated as needed within and across instances. Licenses are added to the MSP license pool to be centrally managed.  The AuthControl® MSP appliance communicates with Swivel Secure Licensing servers to allow management of the purchased licences by the MSP/MSSP.

A dedicated instance: AuthControl Sentry® appliances

AuthControl® MSP relies on the MSP/MSSP deploying at least two AuthControl Sentry® appliances within a VMWare environment controlled and orchestrated with VMWare Vcentre Server. These AuthControl Sentry® appliances can be stand-alone or high availability.

Alternative virtual environments can be imported into AuthControl® MSP outside of the VMware environment such as Amazon Web Services (AWS).  No individual licenses are required as licenses will be allocated through AuthControl® MSP from the MSP license pool.
