Learn how Rublon MFA can securely manage vendor and supplier access by implementing multi-factor authentication and utilizing Bypass Codes for temporary entry. Rublon ensures that external partners can only access authorized resources for specific tasks, reducing security risks associated with third-party interactions.
Scenario
An organization regularly collaborates with third-party vendors and suppliers who require access to certain internal systems and resources. While this access is necessary for business operations, it also introduces potential security risks, as these external entities may not follow the same stringent security practices as the organization.
Challenge
Third-party access can be a significant security vulnerability, as vendors and suppliers may inadvertently or maliciously expose sensitive information or systems to cyber threats. The challenge lies in granting these external partners the access they need while ensuring that this access is tightly controlled and monitored. Additionally, there may be instances where temporary access is required for regulatory compliance. For example, an organization can enable temporary access to satisfy the NIS2 Directive’s requirements on human resources security and access control policies.
Solution
Implement Rublon MFA to secure access for third-party vendors and suppliers. With Rublon, all third-party users must authenticate using multi-factor authentication before accessing the organization’s systems, ensuring that only authorized individuals can gain entry. For cases where temporary access is needed, Rublon’s Bypass Codes can be issued, allowing third-party users to access specific resources for a limited time under strict control.
Benefits
Rublon MFA enhances security by enforcing strong authentication for all third-party and supplier access, reducing the risk of unauthorized access or data breaches. By applying consistent MFA across all external users, the organization ensures that only verified individuals can access sensitive systems and information, regardless of their location or device. Rublon’s Bypass Codes provide a secure and flexible solution for temporary access needs, allowing third parties to perform necessary tasks without compromising the organization’s security.
