About WatchGuard AuthPoint

AuthPoint Identity Security provides the solutions you need to protect identities, assets, accounts, and information. Whether it is with our award-winning multi-factor authentication (MFA) or our corporate password manager and credential monitoring services, AuthPoint helps to mitigate the risks associated with widespread workforce credential attacks.

With AuthPoint, companies can enable secure remote access with virtual private networks (VPNs), provide a seamless experience to employees with simple-to-use security technology, achieve regulatory compliance, and meet cyber insurance requirements.


Key benefits of WatchGuard AuthPoint

- Reduce credentials management costs: A password manager will reduce the number of times a user will need to reset passwords

- Increase user adoption of identity protection: Having to create, manage and memorize fewer passwords, users will adopt and use more identity protection solutions. Even those concerned about the AuthPoint app will have an incentive to do it, to facilitate the login process and manage their own personal passwords

- Reduce exposure related to credential theft (phishing, dark web, social engineering, etc.): Having unique, complex and virtually uncrackable passwords will reduce exposure from certain types of credential theft. “Credential stuffing” and “credential spraying” attacks, for example, will have a very low chance of working against a company using a business password manager.

Solid VPN Tool

Reviewed on 07/08/2019

Pros

I use WatchGuard AuthPoint for one thing and that is to access our network via VPN when I am working remotely. It is very simple to use. You enter your password and you are done. I do not experience any lag or issues.

Cons

There really isn't much to dislike. I do wish that WatchGuard would remember my password instead of requiring me to enter it each and every time.

AuthPoint has worked well for us. We have used it for over 2 years now and it is easy to deploy and easy to add/remove users to the system.

Pros

Ease of setup and user interface make it a easy setup.

Cons

Not for us directly, but you need (I believe) to have a WG firebox in order to use the product.,

My experience has been overwhelmingly positive and I use AuthPoint often and rarely have issues.

My experience has been overwhelmingly positive and I use AuthPoint often and rarely have issues.

Pros

I like the simplicity of it the most. We only need to use it for access into one program and it can be used through my Apple Watch or iPhone which makes using it even simpler.

Cons

Sometimes the app is difficult to use after you have a major update on your phone.
