Security News > 2020 > August > JumpCloud App for Windows: Enabling secure credential and identity management

JumpCloud announced the release of the JumpCloud App for Windows, the latest update to its patent-pending strategy for enabling secure credential and identity management from an employee's device.

The JumpCloud Windows App streamlines credential management workflows and establishes the employee's workstation or laptop as a trusted device.

Along with JumpCloud's endpoint-management capabilities, i.e. System Insights, configuration policies, full disk encryption, multi-factor authentication, and user account management, the Windows App allows the employee to interact with their corporate JumpCloud identity, access their User Portal securely to launch into applications via SSO, and update their corporate password.

"JumpCloud's Windows App-like its existing offering for MacOS-is designed to help organizations eliminate the risk of email-based phishing schemes for associated user accounts by centralizing identity management on associated individuals' devices."

"JumpCloud's security policies, MFA, and our Windows and macOS apps provide the assurance that IT and security teams need for the most secure means to protect their employees."
