XACCESS Site Key: Secure Your Locations with IP-Restricted Access

What is the XACCESS Site Key?

• The XACCESS Site Key is a small hardware device equipped with an Ethernet port, designed to be installed on a client’s network. Once deployed, it designates the site as a “Safe Zone” within the XACCESS ecosystem, enabling seamless and controlled access to cloud resources.
• With the XACCESS Site Key, users on the designated network can visit the XACCESS authentication page and be redirected automatically to the correct XCLOUD login portal—all without requiring an XACCESS MFA token. This solution is particularly useful for organizations that need to enforce login restrictions based on geographic locations while ensuring maximum security and compliance.
  

Use Cases for the XACCESS Site Key

1. Foreign BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) Centers
   In offshore outsourcing environments, companies often need to restrict access to their cloud systems from only approved office locations. The XACCESS Site Key enables BPO employees to log in seamlessly from their workplace while preventing unauthorized remote access from outside locations. This ensures that only those physically present at the BPO site can access company systems, reducing security risks and potential compliance violations.
   

1. Retail Point-of-Sale (POS) Security
   Retail environments require secure, location-based login enforcement to protect sensitive sales data. With the XACCESS Site Key, POS employees on-site can log in without an MFA token, but attempts to access the system from an external network will be blocked. This prevents unauthorized remote logins, ensuring that only staff present at the retail location can process sales and transactions.

1. Enterprise Offices with Location-Based Access Controls
   Organizations that require strict login security can deploy the XACCESS Site Key to ensure that logins are only possible from corporate offices. While users within the office bypass MFA, those accessing remotely still must complete the MFA challenge, adding an extra layer of security and control.

How It Works

• Install the XACCESS Site Key – Connect the hardware device to your network via Ethernet.
• Automatically Define a Safe Zone – The site becomes a trusted login location, allowing users without an MFA token to authenticate.
• MFA Security Remains Intact – Users with XACCESS MFA tokens must still complete the MFA challenge, even when logging in from a Safe Zone.
• Restrict Access to Physical Locations – Prevent logins from unauthorized locations, ensuring that only on-site users can access corporate resources.
  

Why Choose XACCESS Site Key?

• ✅ Enhanced Security – Restrict logins to authorized locations without compromising MFA security.
• ✅ Seamless User Experience – Users in Safe Zones log in without needing an MFA token, reducing authentication friction.
• ✅ Ideal for Global Operations – Perfect for BPOs, retail stores, and corporate offices that require physical location enforcement.
