Judy Security vs Secret Double Octopus

About Secret Double Octopus

Secret Double Octopus uses patented ZeroPassword™ technology and is FIDO Alliance certified. For non-SAML apps, Octopus replaces passwords on the backend with ephemeral tokens, and directories and legacy apps stay intact. Secret Double Octopus describes eliminating user-managed passwords across Windows & macOS, legacy and on-prem applications, remote access, shared accounts, and hybrid identity environments.^[3][4]

Secret Double Octopus provides passwordless MFA for web single sign-on apps, such as SAML and OIDC. Secret Double Octopus provides desktop MFA at Windows login, online or offline. Secret Double Octopus provides phishing-resistant MFA for RADIUS and SSL VPN remote access. Secret Double Octopus provides passwordless SSH access to Linux and Unix servers. Secret Double Octopus covers apps with local or database user stores outside Active Directory. Secret Double Octopus provides named accountability on shared workstations and admin accounts.

Octopus Starter is traditional MFA with passwords that is ready to go passwordless, with covered use cases that include cloud/web applications, VPN, and VDI. Octopus Pro adds desktop MFA, including phishing-resistant FIDO2 key authentication to Windows, MAC, and corporate applications. Octopus Enterprise is full passwordless MFA for an entire workforce. Octopus Cloud is SOC2 certified and delivered as a service. Octopus Cloud carries the full suite of Octopus Enterprise, Pro, and Starter for companies of all sizes. Octopus is available as a self-managed virtual appliance for on-premises and private cloud environments.

Octopus protects corporate apps, including VPN, privileged accesses, and custom business services.^[1][4]

The Octopus SSO Authentication Platform is built around a patented Invisible Secret Rotation technology. An Octopus administrator adds SaaS and password-based apps to the Octopus SSO-managed applications console. Users authenticate to Octopus on their desktop using strong passwordless methods like FIDO, smartcard, or Octopus mobile push with proximity sensing. Octopus monitors the user session for policy violations to force re-authentication, steps up MFA, or for lockdown when the user starts an Octopus-managed app. Workforce passwordless MFA is multi-factor authentication that lets employees log in to every corporate resource without a password.^[4][9][10]

Octopus supports all remote access protocols, including LDAP, Radius, SAML, and Kerberos. Octopus is built on cryptographic protocols that resist impersonation, push bombing, and man-in-the-middle attacks against web and corporate apps. Desktop-to-Apps Pinning stops advanced MITM phishing attacks without adding hardware smartcards or FIDO2 keys or changing the identity infrastructure. SDO includes CTAP2 and certified Server to protect Mac, Windows, and Linux desktops, web apps, and corporate apps. Octopus adaptive MFA capabilities include verified push, geolocation, and anomalous retry lockout. SDO replaces passwords on the backend of legacy and directory-based systems with machine-generated ephemeral tokens, so there is no static credential to phish.^[5][11]
