Login & Authentication

Login and Authentication are fundamental components of Visual Guard, ensuring secure access to applications and resources. The system provides robust mechanisms to verify user identities, enforce access policies, and safeguard sensitive information. With support for various authentication methods, Visual Guard delivers a flexible and reliable solution for managing user credentials and ensuring secure access control.

The following are the various login modes available in Visual Guard.

• Visual Guard Authentication: Users authenticate through Visual Guard’s integrated login system by providing a username and password, which are securely verified against Visual Guard’s user repository. This method offers a straightforward and reliable authentication approach, fully managed within the Visual Guard framework, ensuring centralized control and enhanced security for user access.
• Database Authentication: Visual Guard webconsole allows users to authenticate using their database credentials. This method ensures secure access by verifying the user’s identity directly against the database, enhancing security and integrating seamlessly with existing database systems.
• Passwordless Authentication: Passwordless login is a method of authentication that allows users to access a system or application without requiring a traditional password. Instead of entering a password, users are authenticated through alternative methods such as magic link or SMS verification. In Visual Guard, passwordless login enhances security and user experience by providing convenient and secure authentication options that eliminate the need for users to remember and manage passwords.
• Windows Authentication (Single Sign-On): Leverages integration with Active Directory to allow users to log in automatically using their Windows credentials, enabling seamless within enterprise environments, enabling seamless and secure single sign-on (SSO) within enterprise environments.
• Windows Authentication by Credential: Users authenticate through their Windows credentials, leveraging the security infrastructure of the Windows operating system. Visual Guard integrates with Windows authentication to validate user identities, providing seamless access to applications based on Windows credentials.
