It gives teams the next level of granularity to enforce policies, including the use of multi-factor authentication and session recording, without requiring any software or browser extension to be installed. It also cuts down the amount of manual effort with its API suite, which can be integrated into automated workflows and ticketing systems to streamline access grants for contractors and give them access automatically, all within a centralized web portal.
