The Challenge
A northern European installer of sustainable energy solutions with multiple office locations needed to secure their wireless networks and corporate devices with certificate-based authentication and modern security protocols.
The client used Intune to manage devices, and was looking for something that would integrate seamlessly and allow them to provision certificates and react quickly if cybersecurity issues arose.
With ambitious plans to scale, including adding thousands to the headcount, the client knew they needed a solution that would grow alongside them.
The Solution
With the Join Now platform, including both Cloud Radius and Dynamic PKI, the client deployed wireless certificate authentication on all corporate devices. Managed endpoints receive certificates through SCEP profiles via Intune, and every Wi-Fi connection is automatically authenticated through Cloud RADIUS.
With SecureW2 solutions, the client has access to attribute-level workflows, dynamic certificate provisioning based on real-time threat signals. Users access the network without the need for passwords, and every connection is authenticated with EAP-TLS.
The Results
- Passwordless access via 802.1X — no shared secrets mean fewer opportunities for intruders and cyberattacks
- Dynamic certificate management — IT overhead is minimal, freeing up time for more complex tasks
- Multi-site scalability — Cloud RADIUS means there’s no need for on-prem hardware at each new office, smoothing the path to growth
