    Overview

    Microsoft Authenticator is a multifactor app for mobile devices that gives employees easy, secure access to online accounts, providing multi-factor authentication for an extra layer of security.

    Passwords can be forgotten, stolen, or compromised. With Authenticator, your phone provides an extra layer of security on top of your PIN or fingerprint.

    Protect all of your accounts with two-step verification. The app also helps you secure all of your online accounts by using the industry standard time-based OTP (one-time password) codes.

    The Preempt Platform
    If you can’t see all your users or know what they are doing and accessing, it’s difficult to control risks and prevent threats. The Preempt Platform takes a modern approach to the problem and puts you back in the driver’s seat.

    Preempt empowers organizations to easily reduce user risk on their attack surface and preempt threats in real time with Conditional Access. Our patented technology continuously analyzes, adapts and responds to threats based on identity, behavior and risk to auto-resolve insider threats and targeted attacks.
