Enable PIV Smart Card Access with YubiKeys
SecureW2 transforms Yubico identity data into dynamic certificate policies that adapt to user context and risk in real time. Auto-remediate when suspicious behavior or account compromise occurs.
SecureW2's direct integration with Yubico enables real-time network policy enforcement based on Yubico Risk Engine signals. When user status, group membership, or risk score changes in Yubico, SecureW2 immediately adjusts network access privileges—blocking compromised accounts, or applying segmentation based on group membership and/or device posture by combining user signals with device trust from Jamf, CrowdStrike, and more.
