Explore the solution below.

LoginTC streamlines MFA for Cisco ASA VPNs

LoginTC MFA integrates directly with Cisco ASA VPNs to protect both clientless and AnyConnect client setups.

Choose from a wide range of authentication methods and policies that can tailor the solution to your organization’s exact needs.

Push Normal
Push Number Matching
Software OTP
Hardware OTP
SMS OTP
Clientless

Use the LoginTC App to receive push notifications for authentication. Users can accept authentication requests with one-tap, or after entering a pin.

Push Number Matching adds an additional layer of security to push authentication, by requiring users to select the correct matching number.

The LoginTC App can also receive one-time passwords that users can input to confirm authentication. These 6-digit codes rotate every 30 seconds and offer simple and strong authentication online and offline.

One-time authentication codes can also be sent to LoginTC Hardware tokens. Hardware tokens are great for organizations with BYOD policies who need to roll out secure authentication that works online and offline. Try Hardware Token authentication with our trial enrollment program.

End-users can receive one time passcodes to their phones via SMS code. This simple MFA method utilizes existing devices and user enrollment details for a smooth onboarding process.

LoginTC can also protect Clientless or WebVPN logins, ensuring secure authentication even from web-based logins.

Cisco ASA VPN MFA Case Study

Over the past twelve years, countless organizations around the world have used LoginTC to protect their Cisco ASA VPNs from cyber attacks.

Take the example of Remco, a retail logistics company that services a wide range of international customers. When they needed an MFA solution to protect their employees and external contractors, they turned to LoginTC for seamless deployment and unparalleled support.

“Their guidance was invaluable in seamlessly integrating LoginTC RADIUS MFA into our existing systems.”

MFA compliance with industry standards

Most cyber insurance policies require policyholders to implement MFA on all remote access accounts, email, and VPNs. Several compliance standards require the use of multi-factor authentication (MFA) for VPNs and firewalls to ensure the security of sensitive data and systems.

For example, HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) mandates MFA for remote access to healthcare systems, including VPNs, to protect patient health information.

Similarly, PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) requires MFA for accessing systems that store, process, or transmit credit card data, including VPNs and firewalls, to prevent unauthorized access and data breaches.

NIST SP 800-53, which provides guidelines for federal agencies and contractors, also mandates MFA for remote access, especially for systems that require high levels of confidentiality and integrity.

By implementing MFA for VPNs and firewalls, organizations can meet these critical compliance requirements while enhancing their overall cybersecurity posture.

FAQ

What is Cisco ASA MFA?

Cisco ASA MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication) is an advanced security measure that adds an extra layer of protection to Cisco ASA VPNs by requiring users to verify their identity through multiple factors.

Unlike traditional single-factor authentication, which relies solely on passwords, MFA combines something the user knows (a pin or password) with something they have (like a smartphone or hardware token) or something they are (biometrics, such as a fingerprint or face scan). This significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access, even if credentials are compromised.

By integrating MFA with Cisco ASA, organizations can enhance their VPN security, protect sensitive data, and meet compliance requirements, all while providing a seamless user experience.

Why add MFA to Cisco ASA VPNs?

Adding MFA to Cisco ASA VPNs is essential for protecting against evolving cybersecurity threats. Passwords alone are often vulnerable to phishing, brute-force attacks, and credential theft, making them insufficient for securing remote access.

By implementing MFA, organizations introduce an additional verification step, ensuring that only authorized users can access the VPN. This not only strengthens security but also helps safeguard sensitive company data, prevent unauthorized access to internal systems, and reduce the risk of costly breaches.

How does LoginTC work with Cisco ASA?

LoginTC integrates with Cisco ASA to provide MFA by leveraging existing infrastructure to allow users to securely access the VPN with a wide range of authentication methods, including push notifications, one-time passwords (OTPs), or biometrics.

Is LoginTC compatible with all Cisco ASA models?

Yes, LoginTC is compatible with a wide range of Cisco ASA models and integrates seamlessly into the VPN configuration without requiring significant changes to existing infrastructure.

Why do I need MFA for Cisco ASA VPNs?

MFA is crucial for Cisco ASA VPNs as it significantly enhances security by requiring an additional authentication step using more than one type of identity factor. This reduces the risk of unauthorized access through stolen or weak passwords.

How easy is it to deploy LoginTC for Cisco ASA?

LoginTC is designed to be deployed in under one hour. With detailed documentation and support to integrate MFA into your Cisco ASA VPN, setup involves minimal disruption to existing systems.

What authentication methods are supported by LoginTC?
