In Retail, employees often need to authenticate multiple times a day using hardware tokens, which can be inconvenient and prone to loss or damage. With our various authentication methods like Badge Tap, Biometrics, Mobile Authentication, users can effortlessly validate without physical tokens, simplifying the access process. This saves costs associated with replacing hardware tokens, enhances operational efficiency, and improves the overall user experience.
Working with third-party vendors and contractors in the retail industry presents additional security challenges. AuthX simplifies securing VPNs, endpoints, and devices in retail collaborations, preventing potential breaches from third-party access. With privileged access management (PAM) and role-based access controls (RBAC), AuthX ensures limited access to necessary resources, reducing unauthorized entry and data breaches.
