RSA Agent Administrators

DocumentDescription
SecurID MFA Agent for macOSSecurID MFA Agent for macOS works with CAS to require users to perform additional authentication when accessing macOS computers.
RSA MFA Agent for Microsoft Windows RSA MFA Agent for Microsoft Windows leverages CASand RSA Authentication Manager 8.5 and later to provide strong multifactor authentication (MFA) to users signing into Windows, both online and offline.
RSA MFA Agent for Microsoft AD FSAfter logging into the Microsoft Windows domain using an Active Directory (AD) password, users are prompted for a RSA credential delivered by a hardware- or software-based token. By adding the industry-leading multifactor authentication solution as an AD FS option, RSA MFA Agent for AD FS ensures positive user identification before permitting access to valuable, cloud-based resources that are protected by AD FS.
RSA MFA Agent for Citrix StoreFrontRSA MFA Agent is authentication software that provides Citrix StoreFront with additional methods for authenticating users either inside or outside the corporate firewall. When attempting to access a StoreFront store, you provide their user names and passwords for primary authentication.
RSA MFA Agent for PAMRSA MFA Agent for (PAM) is a security solution designed to enhance the protection of privileged accounts and resources by requiring multiple forms of authentication before granting access.
