New Product Announcement

Launch of MyID MFA v5

Intercede, the leading cybersecurity software company specialising in digital identities, has released the latest iteration of its Multi-Factor Authentication MyID MFA product, version 5 ("MyID MFA v5").

MyID MFA v5 delivers enhanced security, flexibility, and easier integration for organisations seeking to protect their applications, data, and networks. It positions Intercede as the leader in the stronger authentication space, offering a comprehensive and user-friendly solution from passwords to PKI, for today's evolving security landscape.

Key Features of MyID MFA v5:

·    FIDO Passkeys: MyID MFA v5 allows organisations to leverage FIDO Passkeys, enabling a secure and passwordless user experience. It acts as both a FIDO authentication server and a passkey issuance solution, supporting both Syncable Passkeys (mobile phone based) and Device Bound Passkeys (on dedicated devices like, but not limited to, YubiKeys);

·    Streamlined Security and User Experience: MyID MFA v5 incorporates Identity Provider (IDP) capabilities, offering a single sign-on solution for applications, Windows desktops, self-service portals, and password resets. Additionally, it integrates with existing credentials and IDPs, minimising deployment costs;

·    Enhanced Windows Desktop Agent: The Windows Desktop Agent now supports federation, 3rd party authenticators, and FIDO passkeys; and

·    Integration with MyID CMS: MyID MFA v5 integrates with MyID CMS, providing a centralised management platform for all user credentials and life cycle management.

Klaas van der Leest, CEO, commented:

"I am very pleased to make this announcement, as the MyID MFA v5 product has been created by an integrated development and test team. This new functionality and product integration was a key plank of our rationale for the acquisition of Authlogics. Our customers and partners continue to derive maximum value from their investments whilst Intercede makes the most efficient use of our combined resources."
