2 min readLast year, Kandji introduced Passport, which makes the login process easier for end users by letting them sign in to their local device accounts with the same single sign-on credentials they use with their organizations' identity providers (IdPs). In addition to making life easier for users, Passport also improves security for the organization as a whole: By syncing local and IdP credentials, IT teams can be sure they all meet the same safety standards. We’ve now made Passport even more secure, by adding support for multifactor authentication (MFA). This enables admins to enforce login flows that leverage the same MFA factors already configured for their users' IdP accounts.
