ManageEngine announced that ADSelfService Plus, an integrated Active Directory self-service password management and single sign-on solution, now supports multi-factor authentication for VPNs to protect organizations' internal networks from unauthorized access.

"VPN gateways are directly accessible through the internet and are prone to brute force and other types of attacks. Relying on credentials alone to protect VPN access to vital resources could result in immeasurable losses," said Parthiban Paramasivam, director of product management, ADSelfService Plus.

"Implementing MFA for VPNs ensures that employees have a second layer of defense even if their credentials are compromised. ADSelfService Plus presents a MFA solution that is both secure and easy to use for employees."

Securing VPNs with MFA via biometric authentication and security tokens.

Apart from MFA, ADSelfService Plus also supports creating strong password policy rules that prevent dictionary words, palindromes and common patterns such as 1234, asdf and qwerty.
