Cisco Secure Access by Duo

Yes, it benefits greatly. We moved over to OneLogin about two years ago and Duo has allowed for our two-step authentication to be easy. We also use it for our p-card and I use it personally for my school login.

I am sure it has helped protect our personal and client data. I have never had it prompt me when I was not the one attempting to gain access but it is a comfort to know if someone did try to hack me I would know.

To my knowledge, there has been none to date. Though I obviously cannot be certain, a large part of this is due to the additional layer of security that Cisco Secure Access by Duo provides. With proper training as to its purpose (i.e., if you see a request that you did not initiate please notify IT immediately, type training) it is hugely effective.

We have a single MFA solution for almost all local and remote access as well as cloud access. There is less to maintain. Basic credential theft attacks cannot be effective because the attacker cannot meet the MFA challenge to launch the attack.

Our company suffered a breach in the past. After that incident, we decided to incorporate Cisco into our routine. Ever since we started using it no breaches have occurred and we have been able to protect sensitive data from hackers. So far we haven’t had any issues with breaches again.

We have not a single access breach from the users who have been added to this system, it has been a piece of relief. I strongly feel that tools like these are extremely underutilized and have many more benefits than are often realized. End users tend to be the largest risk with security, Duo protects them from themselves.

Since using this solution, there haven't been any significant breaches; however, we didn't have any before either. I recommend this to organizations concerned about security or need processes to comply with their specific industry best practices.

Yes, we have secured third-party applications that are supported by Cisco Secure Access by Duo, both on-prem and cloud-based.

To my knowledge, the organization hasn't had any data breaches, either with on-premises devices or cloud-based applications.

As so many of our employees are working remotely and accessing our network from various devices, MFA is critically essential. Since its implementation, I’m more confident about the security of accessing our data via Duo. I also think it’s a great way for my company to track the employees’ access.
I’m not aware of any data breaches and hope it stays that way.

Our organization phased out all other authentication apps for internally used cloud-based applications and solely uses Duo / Cisco Secure Access, by Duo. The integration with several cloud-based applications allows for more push notifications to be enabled, and it also includes the standard resolving token. Using Duo / Cisco Secure Access, by Duo, we were able to enable multi-factor authentication on all of our business services to ensure we have enhanced security deployed universally.

We see many blocked attempts to access our systems every day. There is always the fear that someone will sign up for a service to attempt to download a coupon or sign up for a video game with the same username and password they use at work which if those external low priority systems are ever broken into by a hacker would leave one of our usernames/passwords out on the dark web for a few pennies. Cisco Duo MFA provides us with the needed ability to prove that the users who attempt to log in are our users preventing lockouts from malicious actors trying to brute force their way in or flooding our systems with requests blocking the way for valid users. This lets us sleep at night without fearing the text notification at 3am. FOLLOW UP: Since we had Cisco Duo on our devices it was much easier to setup MFA for our email system and for Salesforce. Both have started enforcing MFA.

Cisco Secure Access by Duo meets Compliance Requirements like PCI, NIST, and GDPR, among others. It allows minimizing security risk if there are compromised credentials trying to access critical business data. You can use push notifications, soft tokens, SMS, phone call, smartwatch wearables, hardware tokens, and biometrics options to enable second-factor authentication.
If you put a good set of policies in place, you can control compromised devices.

It has stopped thousands of attempts to access accounts without authorization. Our clients utilize on-premise Microsoft Exchange, and we also use this for OWA for Microsoft Exchange. I can't even guess how many phishing attacks for OWA logins it has prevented.

There have been no data breaches in our environment since we implemented Duo Secure Access for Multi-Factor Authentication. The Duo does an excellent job of verifying the identity of our users and ensuring no unwanted or unknown entities are able to breach our network environment. We all feel so much better now that we've implemented Duo!

It's important that our organization maintain a secure communication breach at all times. We handle private information that needs to be protected and having a Duo security application to maintain that secure line is imperative for the organization. Data breaches these days are the main cause of malware and spam corruption into one's servers.

We use Cisco Duo MFA with our SSO IDP which provides us extra security in case of a breach with the SSO provider. Dou also offers API capabilities that help us to automate processes like provisioning and remediation. With Duo, we can add a challenge from stilling our data and also from internal users who like to browse or they shouldn't.

Our company has benefitted greatly as during the pandemic the on-campus activities and courses had to be postponed so with everyone moving to a more cloud-based digital platform this tool was perfect to allow us to protect all the information being shared across the university. so far, we have had no reports of data breaches.

Duo Security has enabled Organizational Agility. Duo Security has enabled a reduction in the total cost of ownership. Duo Security has improved end-user productivity & experience.

2FA is proven to dramatically reduce the possibility of breaches. In cases where a user declines a push notification, Duo even asks if it was a mistake or if it was not the user that initiated the push (attempted breach). Yes, users can still be tired from reporting false pushes and eventually approve an attack, but clearly, the use of Duo/2FA dramatically decreases the attack surface.

This has helped to keep remote access to our network more secure. It would keep a laptop with stored VPN or browser-based OWA credentials (which we discourage) from being able to connect without approval from the device owner in the case it was stolen. This has seemed to work very well with only a few timeouts that required multiple attempts.

We have configured the Cisco Secure Access for both on-premise network and server devices and also configured on our cloud-based applications. It gives us more security and we can easy to identify the user identity. The cost of cisco secure access is very low and lots of configuration documentation is available on the website.

We know who is logging on to what and can be safely assumed that the user is who they say they are. There is always the chance that a user could lose control of a phone or a security token, but that is an issue that Duo can't control. Duo is a layer of defense that is necessary in today's world.

Allow for logging in to various applications without having to re-login and I love its usage.

The benefits of using MFA is substantial. It adds that extra authentication layer that hackers simply cannot access unless they physically have your IOS device. On a personal level, I currently use Duo /Cisco Secure Access, by Duo on Thinfinity so that I can access my desktop with WAN securely. The application just simply works out of the box. Duo /Cisco Secure Access, by Duo is just plain powerful!
