Today we announced the general availability (GA) of JumpCloud Go\u2122 to all JumpCloud customers and managed service providers (MSPs) who have implemented our Device Management and Single-Sign On (SSO) capabilities. JumpCloud Go is the only solution in the market today that delivers an integrated, cross-platform, passwordless user login experience to the resources they need from a trusted device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Organizations often struggle to find the right balance between robust security and the employee experience. Supporting hybrid\/remote work using existing solutions in the market is expensive and complex, requiring substantial resources to procure, implement, and integrate numerous point solutions. Organizations are forced to piecemeal together a fragmented device and application authentication solution that ultimately increases day-to-day administrative overhead, operational support costs, and frustrated users that are unable to access the resources to do their jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and the MSPs that serve them, this is an even greater challenge due to the limited resources available to them. They are often forced into a difficult trade off between prioritizing smooth user access or enhanced security due to the lack of a unified solution that can help them do both. On the one hand, focusing solely on user access can increase phishing risk and limit the ability to implement, manage, and maintain Zero Trust access throughout the organization. On the other hand, prioritizing only security increases user friction and the large number of user support tickets associated with access challenges. This leads to unsafe user authentication habits that can jeopardize organizational security and open the door to credential based attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For too long, IT Admins and MSPs are faced with the false dichotomy of having to choose between security vs IT that stems not from choice but rather lack of serviceable options that combine both the user and device management capabilities and one that can both address IT and security needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This is why JumpCloud is introducing JumpCloud Go today to enable faster, safer, and frictionless authentication. It is an exciting new capability built on top of JumpCloud\u2019s open directory platform that connects users from their trusted device to any company managed resource using hardware backed device platform authentication with biometric support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n JumpCloud Go enables passwordless login to JumpCloud-protected web resources from JumpCloud managed and trusted devices. Users can leverage their device biometric authenticators, such as Apple Touch ID or Windows Hello, combined with JumpCloud Go to satisfy traditional password sign-in or MFA challenges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Users can securely and seamlessly access all their JumpCloud managed resources they need to do their jobs without the cumbersome and repetitive log-in workflows associated with strong security and zero trust access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n JumpCloud Go leverages JumpCloud\u2019s open directory platform to automate the enforcement of authentication workflows that reduce the risk of admin misconfiguration or user errors. It uses phishing-resistant technology to reduce an organization’s exposure to phishing, credential theft, or 2FA bypass cyber attacks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n JumpCloud Go also significantly reduces the amount of login prompts users face daily, saving them valuable time and alleviating login fatigue that can lead to accidental credential leakage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Consistent experience across platforms and devices enables a user to leverage a familiar, passwordless login experience across Windows, macOS, and (soon!) the mobile devices they use for work. From the administrator\u2019s perspective, JumpCloud Go delivers a unified administrative experience, enabling admins to automatically enforce strong authentication workflows across their users and entire fleet of devices and securely manage and monitor access to the organization\u2019s resources, all from a single-pane of glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For JumpCloud customers, you will be happy to know that JumpCloud Go is included in the JumpCloud Platform and Platform Plus packages<\/a> and for a la carte customers, it is available to customers that have purchased our Device Management capabilities at no additional cost. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For JumpCloud MSP partners, JumpCloud Go is included as part of the standard JumpCloud for MSP packages.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhy JumpCloud Go<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
