How does Identity Protection protect your users?
Identity protection solutions safeguard your network by ensuring that only the right people with the right devices can access your systems. At the core, these solutions use multi-factor authentication (MFA) which requires a primary factor (username/password) plus an extra factor (i.e. one-time code, fingerprint check, or security key) making it harder for attackers to gain entry even with stolen credentials.
Beyond MFA, these tools evaluate device posture and user behavior to detect unusual activity or risky logins. By combining identity verification with continuous monitoring, they reduce the chance of breaches and strengthen your overall security posture. The best solutions focus on doing this without annoying your users.
How do we help?
Getting started with identity protection is straight forward. Turning on core features like MFA, connecting your identity sources (or using Duo as a standalone), and enabling single sign-on helps most organizations start improving their security quickly.
Don’t settle for only setting up the basic features. NSI ensures that even advanced capabilities such as risk-based authentication, adaptive policies, device health checks, identity intelligence and monitoring, and VPN-less access are properly designed, deployed, and fine-tuned. A fully deployed identity protection solution gives users the security they want and need while not giving them the headaches associated with typical implementations.

NSI relies exclusively on Cisco Duo for identity protection. Duo delivers security to on-prem and cloud systems through phishing resistant MFA, user identification, and device trust scoring before granting access.
Duo incorporates an exclusive identity intelligence feature that allows administrators visibility across their identity sources (Active Directory/Entra ID, Google Workspace, cloud services, etc.) to help instantly expose dormant accounts, weak MFA, and risky access patterns that might normally go undetected. Through comprehensive visibility and AI-driven behavior analytics, Duo delivers the first identity threat detection and response system.
Duo is set apart with it’s relentless focus on a simplifying the user experience. Users praise it for staying out of the way through features like passwordless login, adaptive authentication, and Duo passport (which “remembers” your successful login across browsers and applications). Duo is continually recommended by both users and administrators alike.

Identity protection is a vital piece of an organization’s cybersecurity strategy. By integrating MFA, device trust, intelligence, and monitoring you can create another powerful layer of defense against would be attackers giving your users and your organization the confidence to operate without fear.
