The Solution

AuthControl Cloud & Sentry

Our Cloud service is based on the established and award winning solution AuthControl Sentry. The Sentry platform has been moved to the Cloud to provide an authentication service without the need for local install or management.

Dedicated Instance

Each AuthControl Cloud customer, has their own dedicated virtual instance; providing complete peace of mind. You do not share a virtual space, unlike most cloud based solutions, so your data security is maximised.

Pricing Model

To reflect the different nature of a cloud service, Swivel Secure offer our cloud platform with a license for PUPY. Find about more about our pricing and licensing models.

Hosting & Availability

AuthControl Cloud leverages the scale and resilience of the Amazon AWS platform. We provide customers the option to select where AuthControl Cloud runs their instance, as well as the choice of storage geo-location; EU, USA or APAC.

Secure Account Provisioning

Linking a Cloud service to your local AD, can be a security risk. Swivel Secure have approached this challenge by developing an AD Agent. The AD Agent is installed locally on a customers server. The Agent syncs to the AD, monitoring nominated AD groups and then sends that account information over HTTPS to the Swivel Cloud.

Dedicated Cloud Offering

The only real dedicated cloud offering on the market, AuthControl Cloud ensures you do not have to share your virtual space. We provide a dedicated virtual machine to each of our customers. There are no shared, multi-tenanted options available as we believe security comes first and foremost.

Helping to solve even more business challenges

The modern business world has a unique set of challenges when it comes to data access.

Protect access to your data with AuthControl Sentry in a highly secure, dedicated Cloud service. AuthControl Cloud enables safe access to all your data, whether on-premise or in the Cloud, whilst meeting your business needs head on.

Our Cloud service applies our intelligent approach to authentication with a highly flexible and rapidly scalable solution. With no upfront capital expenditure and a range of commercial models it is as cost effective as it is trusted.

What our clients say

“We are very happy with the Swivel authentication solution. The implementation process was managed efficiently over a two-day period, with intuitive training that ensured minimum disruption to our users. The whole system has succeeded in meeting the needs of Sanitas for strong and flexible security.”

Mayte Mompean, Technical Consultant, Sanitas

“We have always been pleased with the Swivel authentication solution and the great service and support that we receive from its team. The introduction of support for tokens gave us the flexibility we needed to offer service to our users, even when they had no mobile signal.”

Steve Hodgson, ICT Technical Services Manager, Durham County Council

“We needed to ensure that our workforce was completely connected, wherever they were. There were a number of solutions on the market, but we needed one which would ensure both security and scalability as our needs evolved.”

Donal Higgins, Global Service Desk Manager, Tullow Oil

“We needed to accommodate a broad range of users in terms of their IT capability and the tokenless system really fitted the bill, making it an easy transition to make.”

James Symonds, IT Director, Rawlinson & Hunter

“Ah, Swivel. There’s a product which does what it’s meant to and gives users and IT departments a simple life. If only all products were that good. Swivel Secure support had been more than helpful, even speaking to Netgear to ask for firmware updates for their switches so that we could use them.”

RMT Technology Support Engineer

“The system is straight forward to use and administer and we are now looking forward to rolling it out to the rest of our remote access users in the next few months.”

Paul Newell, ICT Systems Manager, The Sheffield College

“Everyone seems to have accepted the Swivel solution more than our original token system. We have really noticed that the login failure rate has dramatically decreased, and it has generally made life easier for everyone.”

Huw Owen, Senior IT Consultant, Rawlinson & Hunter

“We wanted a proven authentication solution that was simple to use by anyone in the organisation and that we could easily expand in the future in line with the growth of the company. Swivel gave us that and more, without introducing a major cost into the mobile access equation.”

Stephen Slater, RMT Director

“We required a solution that was easy to use, flexible and embraced the use of mobile devices. We chose to implement the Swivel PINpad solution as it not only provided the level of security we required when staff accessed the corporate virtual private network on the move, but it also works seamlessly with the touch screen devices that are popular with many of our employees.”

Dean Kelley, Network Support Analyst, Macfarlanes

“No other company could offer anything remotely similar. The Swivel authentication platform was unique and innovative. For the IT department, it is a secure solution, with low maintenance and support costs. For the end-user it is extremely easy to use and ensures the high levels of security. In addition to providing secure access to our online applications, we can also define different levels of access, adapted to our needs, which is a great benefit to us.”

Ricardo Negrão, Support Director, PLMJ

“We are very happy with our decision to implement the Swivel authentication solution, which has helped us to cut costs. The mobile app solution is user friendly and has given us the flexibility we needed to offer for secure remote access. The level of service and support that we receive from the team is excellent.”

Manjit Singh Saroya, Leicestershire County Council

“The worry of employees losing their tokens often meant a loss of money that has been invested. With PINsafe if an employee retires or leaves the company the license can be transferred, which is a much more cost effective solution for us. Swivel is just an easier option all round, for both the employee and the IT department. We are so impressed with the Swivel system we will probably increase its use within the Tax and Customs Departments over time.”

Pedro Pereira, IT Security Officer/ D.G.I.T.A, Portuguese Ministry of Finance

“We were looking for a proven, tokenless security platform which is quick and easy to implement. The speed of the connection once the VPN connection has been established is excellent, allowing everyone to work remotely to a previously impossible standard. The Swivel authentication platform and PINsafe protocol offers a cost effective tokenless solution which fulfilled all of our needs and has made our lives that little bit easier.”

Philippe Thirroueiz, IT Manager of Rockall Technologies

“The Swivel solution was a great option for us. Its free student licences caught our attention initially and when we reviewed the solution further we were impressed by its range of deployment options and the wide availability of the mobile application. The scalability and flexibility of the Swivel platform is ideal for any organisation looking to accommodate remote users.”

Patrick Oberli, Network Engineer, Hochschule für Technik Rapperswil

“We implemented the Swivel authentication platform in January 2013 with 450 licenses and will soon be expanding to 500 licenses. Swivel is a flexible solution which has been simple and easy to integrate into our existing infrastructure, ensuring a smooth transition from our previous supplier. We have also been impressed with the support received from the technical team at Swivel, for whom nothing has been too much trouble.”
