Authentication App for NGAF

Hi,

I was wondering if there is an authenticator app in NGAF. I am coming from cyberoam. They have this app called iaccess. So users needs to authenticate on iaccess before they are allowed to access the internet.

Thanks,

Haven't seen any authenticator as well so far. But was using 2FA for security to reduce risk of unauthorized access to sangfor devices

It can support Google Authenticator and Microsoft Authenticator

Sangfor NGAF don't have any authentication apps yet. There are  methods like password, 2FA , SSO with external auth server

HiHi,

It does not support any authentication apps.
However, alternative methods such as those below method:

- Open authentication (binding IP/MAC).
- Local password authentication.
- External password authentication.
- Single sign-on (combined with the external authentication system for authentication)

Not it doesnot support any app.

To login to the NGAF itself, it doesn't have additional external authenticator (2FA).
But if you utilize the VPN Server from NGAF, It supports 2FA using Google Authentication.

Hi, you can refer this document for information about implementing 2fa on ssl vpn users: https://community.sangfor.com/pl ... tabase&tid=5017

you can use google authenticator for MFA. its one of the best option.

No, Sangfor NGAF does not have a built-in authenticator app like Cyberoam's iAccess. However, it offers various two-factor authentication (2FA) methods that can achieve similar functionality. Here are some options:

1. Third-Party Authenticator Apps:

    You can integrate NGAF with popular third-party authenticator apps like Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, or Duo Mobile. Users can install these apps on their smartphones and use them to generate one-time passwords for logins.

2. SMS-Based Authentication:

    NGAF allows sending one-time verification codes via SMS to users' registered phone numbers during login attempts. This adds an extra layer of security compared to just using passwords.

3. RADIUS Authentication:

    You can configure NGAF to use RADIUS servers for authentication. This allows integrating with various authentication methods supported by the RADIUS server, potentially including tokens generated by authenticator apps.

4. Hardware Tokens:

    NGAF supports hardware tokens like RSA SecurID or YubiKey for 2FA. These tokens provide physical buttons or require physical insertion, adding a stronger layer of security.

5. Biometric Authentication:

    Some NGAF models support fingerprint or facial recognition scanners for biometric authentication, eliminating the need for passwords or tokens altogether.

While Sangfor NGAF doesn't have a dedicated app like iAccess, these alternative methods provide various 2FA options to secure user access and enhance your network security. Choose the method that best suits your specific needs and security requirements.
