Configure Role Based Access Control

Image
Foxpass provides role based access control  (RBAC), which allows you to grant access permissions based on the roles of individual users within your organization. In Foxpass, all users are added to Foxpass Cloud. As the first user in your organization, you must first create an account in Foxpass Cloud and then log in to the Foxpass Cloud credentials. You have the super administrator role, and by default, you have full access permissions in Foxpass. Later, you can create other users in your organization in Foxpass Cloud. Users who are created later and who log in to Foxpass as regular users are called delegated administrators. These users, by default, have all permissions except user administration permissions. However, you can grant specific user administration permissions to these delegated admin users. You can do this by creating appropriate policies and assigning them to these delegated users. User administration permissions can be found in Account > User administration. For m...

What is OpenRoaming Current?

Image
OpenRoaming Current is an open system that can connect your mobile device with a trusted and secured Wifi without any password or verification. This system allows you to use a secured wifi system without any credential login. We can say that OpenRoaming is an evolution of Pass point which is used to build dynamic and scalable relationships between service providers and wireless access networks. OpenRoaming currently has flexible policies which allow the service providers to find and figure the quality of the Wi-Fi networks their users attach to. Because all the Wi-Fi connections will be secured with enterprise-grade security protocols, the service providers can be at ease by knowing that their users are protected from Wi-Fi attacks. OpenRoaming tends to play a starring role in the future networking system, where convergence between Wi-Fi and cellular drives low connections in dense environments. OpenRoaming can be used as a synonymous network with free-for-all access.  Many compan...

LDAP - Benefits and Drawbacks

Image
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol ( LDAP ) is a security system that protects your data by ensuring that the information collected from other servers is safe through emailing.    In simple language, one can also define LDAP as a communication medium of Active Directory and other directory services.  Just like any other security system, LDAP also has its own set of benefits and drawbacks. Let’s have a look at them.   LDAP is security software that permits the users and applications to access, verify and find every sort of information required in an organization.    LDAP's main aim is to connect the organization users with clients, which makes it safe to share the data from both the server and client end to use and access.    LDAP is a vendor-neutral application protocol that functions to maintain the info in a directory in an organized way, which means it allows you to keep a guide and store information about its items.

Benefits and Applications of IAM

Image
IAM is a short form of identity and access management . It is actually a security system which is built to avoid cybercrimes and online network attacks. It is one of the core security measures used in the IT industry. IAM works on the mechanism/proctol of identity authentication. It helps the access providers to manage the data access on the basis of their identity. The working process of IAM happens in two steps, and it happens in reference to - identity and access. In the first verification, users are identified on the basis of their identity. And in the second step the user is granted the access once the person agrees and verifies the terms of the info they can use within the network. Identity and access management system functioning is based on many verification processes, like - single sign-on, two-factor authentication, multi-factor authentication, and privileged access management. APPLICATIONS Some of the applications of IAM are - API Security:   It enables IAM for integrat...
