What is ARM?
An Advanced RISC Machine, or “ARM” processor, is a type of central process unit (CPU). It is a different way of designing computer hardware compared to a traditional x86 architecture.
While ARM architecture began in the microcomputing and edge computing spaces, it has grown in popularity for consumer-based PCs. Software that is built for x86 models does not always work with ARM processors, so purpose-built versions need to be developed and deployed in order to bridge the gap for ARM users.
Does having an ARM processor impact Windows Logon MFA?
Starting with version 1.4.4 of the LoginTC Windows Logon Connector, you can now download a compatible MSI to install on ARM-based Windows machines.
Windows MFA for ARM with LoginTC
With the latest update to our Windows MFA solution, users with an ARM processor will be able to install comprehensive third-party MFA for their Windows logins.
The Windows Logon and RDP Connector can add stronger authentication to all types of Windows-based logins, including UAC (Run as administrator), offline logins, and remote logins.
Organizations can choose from a wide range of authentication methods that fit their users’ needs. From phishing-resistant FIDO2 authentication, to simple-to-use push authentication, and everything in between, LoginTC has a method that will work for you.
Offline logins to Windows are a critical functionality for any organization, and LoginTC ensures that all offline logins are protected with MFA, instead of other solutions which can bypass MFA, or deny authentication outright.
All these features and more are now available for users with ARM processors.
