Secure access across public services, not just cloud applications
Councils, agencies and public bodies run modern cloud services alongside long-established systems. AuthControl Sentry® provides multi-factor authentication across both, with deployment options for on-premise, specialist and isolated environments.
What makes access different in the public sector
Public-sector organisations rarely start from a clean slate. Systems built over many years sit beside newer cloud services, and all of them hold information about the people they serve. Staff work from offices, from home and out in the community, while partners, contractors and other agencies need controlled access.
Some staff cannot or should not use a personal smartphone, and some systems must stay on-premise or on isolated networks. Authentication has to work across the whole estate, not only the parts that are easiest to secure.
How Swivel Secure fits
Strong authentication that fits the environment it has to protect. See the AuthControl Sentry® platform for the full feature set.
Deployment choice
Choose on-premise, private cloud, hybrid or air-gapped deployment to match data handling requirements and network design.
Authentication choice
Offer PINsafe®, PINpad or hardware tokens where smartphones are unsuitable, alongside the mobile app, push and FIDO2 passkeys.
Integration
Add MFA to remote access, Microsoft 365, Windows logon and line-of-business applications through RADIUS, SAML and OpenID Connect.
Intelligent access
Use risk-based authentication to step up checks for unusual sign-ins, and single sign-on to simplify everyday access.
