Verified G2 Review

Great cloud PKI and RADIUS solution. SecureW2 JoinNow allowed us to replace our legacy on-premise RADIUS and certificate authority and move to a fully managed cloud offering.

Where Access Control Breaks Down

Closing the Gaps Between Credentials, Devices, and Compliance

Four of the most common reasons teams bring us in, whether that's a store floor or a server rack.

The Problem How We Solve It
Shared Credentials One leaked password puts an intruder on the same network as your POS systems.
Every device needs its own certificate to connect. Unrecognized devices are rejected outright.
On-Prem RADIUS Hardware RADIUS hardware at every store costs money to maintain, and one failure takes it offline.
Cloud RADIUS skips the hardware. Cached certs keep registers online during brief outages.
Non-Standard Devices POS terminals and scanners often can't run an MDM agent or complete normal enrollment.
API-based issuance and MAC auth bypass cover devices standard MDM can't reach.
Compliance Readiness Auditors ask what connected, when, and with what access, and it's scattered across stores.
Every authentication event logs centrally: device, user, timestamp, VLAN, and policy.
How It Actually Works

Why Retailers Rely on SecureW2 Most

Real flows, pulled directly from how retailers actually deploy SecureW2.

On-Prem RADIUS Servers Are Now Optional

Cut down on time-consuming site visits. With Cloud RADIUS, administrators manage every store's authentication from a single portal, applying uniform policies everywhere.

Device Certificates for Shared Store Hardware

Each register, tablet, and scanner has its own certificate for a network connection before anyone logs in. When someone with their own user certificate logs in, they're routed to the right store network based on who they are.

Time-Limited Access for Contractors and Vendors

Sponsors create guest accounts with the access window set upfront, isolated from payment systems, that cut off automatically once the window closes.

SecureW2 / NETWORK AUTH

Modernize Auth for Wired and Wireless Networks

Fast, reliable 802.1X and Cloud RADIUS authentication for Wi-Fi and wired access, powered by real-time policy evaluation and passwordless certificate-based access that adapts to identity, posture, and risk.

Lower IT Overhead

Reduce help desk tickets by 20% with automated enrollment
and renewal

Automate Onboarding

Provision certificates silently via your existing MDM

Control Device Access

Clear visibility into every access event for effortless
compliance

INTEGRATIONS
SecureW2 / AGENTIC AI & MACHINE ID

Identify & Control all Agentic AI Access

Mutual TLS certificates eliminate the risk of API key compromise in agentic AI deployments, binding agents to verified device identities. Works alongside SPIRE servers to issue short-lived SVIDs that scope exactly what each agent can reach across your MCP-connected data sources.

Strengthen AI System Access

Replace shared tokens with certificates that verify the
user/device before access.

Stop Credential Theft

Certificates can't be phished or reused the way stolen
passwords can.

Enforce Data Boundaries

Automatically scope each AI agent to only the data its
role allows.

INTEGRATIONS
SecureW2 / SSO & WEB APPS

Device Trust for SSO and Applications

Dynamically issue x.509 certificates through policies that authorize scoped access based on role, risk and device context. Enforce least-privilege access to SaaS and internal apps from trusted devices only.

Verified Device Access

Only managed, healthy devices reach your SaaS apps

Reduce Authentication Fatigue

Frictionless login that eliminates recurring prompts and
resets

Phishing-Resistant SSO

Certificates that can't be phished or socially engineered

INTEGRATIONS
SecureW2 / ZTNA/VPN

Enforce Least-Privilege Access for Remote Workers

Enable secure distributed access with certificate-based ZTNA and VPN integrations. Dynamic policy decisions authorize access based on real-time signals from your existing security stack.

Enforce Device Trust

Enforce granular, policy-driven access for every remote
session

Strengthen Posture Assessment

Close the gap left by SASE tools that ignore device
compliance

Instant Threat Revocation

Auto-kick compromised devices the second a risk signal is
detected

INTEGRATIONS
SecureW2 / DESKTOP LOGIN

Passwordless Desktop Authentication

Enforce certificate-backed login with YubiKeys, smart cards and other hardware tokens. Dynamic certificate management supports PIN and PUK functionality and automates enrollment, renewal and slot assignment.

Prevent Local Data Breaches

Block attackers from exploiting weak local credentials to
access sensitive data

Secure Lost or Stolen Hardware

Revoke device login certificates the moment a device is
reported missing

Fast Multi-User Access

Secure, rapid user switching on shared devices via smart
cards

INTEGRATIONS
SecureW2 / GUEST WI-FI

Deliver Guest Wi-Fi with Role Limits and Expiration

Provision guest access with minute-level control. Supported methods include sponsor approval and self-registration through Captive Portal, plus directory integration with LDAP, Google, PowerSchool and SAML.

Auto-Expiring Access

Custom durations that revoke automatically, no manual
cleanup

Simple Guest Access

Guests connect via SMS or social login, eliminating
repetitive IT setup

Operational Efficiency

Reduce IT workload by delegating guest approvals to
employee sponsors

Implementation Guidance

Retail Implementation Questions

Common questions from IT and security teams about deploying SecureW2 across store networks.

How do we keep personal devices off our corporate store Wi-Fi?

A device needs a valid, organization-issued certificate to connect at all. Personal devices without an enrolled certificate are rejected at the network layer, regardless of whether someone knows the network name or password. BYOD can still be supported through a controlled enrollment pathway if your policy allows it.

Can SecureW2 issue certificates to POS terminals and non-standard store devices?

Yes. Managed Device Gateways integrate with Workspace ONE, Intune, and Jamf for standard managed devices, and API-based certificate delivery covers POS terminals and other purpose-built hardware that falls outside a normal MDM enrollment flow. Devices that can't support certificate-based auth at all can fall back to MAC auth bypass.

How does associate onboarding and offboarding work at the store level without IT involvement?

New associates self-enroll in minutes using their existing identity provider credentials, no store-level IT required. When an account is deactivated, the associated certificate is revoked immediately, so access ends the moment employment does.

How do we manage certificates for large seasonal hiring cohorts?

Seasonal certificates can be configured to expire automatically at the end of an employment period. Access ends on schedule without HR or IT taking a separate offboarding step for every seasonal hire.

Can SecureW2 provide isolated customer guest Wi-Fi?

Yes, through JoinNow NetAuth. Guest sessions are time-limited, fully logged, and isolated from the associate and POS networks at the VLAN level, so guest traffic never touches anything operational.

How does SecureW2 work with Workspace ONE, Jamf, or Intune across our store fleet?

SecureW2 integrates with each independently through modern issuance protocols like ACME and Dynamic SCEP. For Intune specifically, SecureW2 also integrates as a third-party partner CA. Every certificate lands in the same portal with the same lifecycle controls, no matter which platform manages the device.

How do device certificates work for shared store hardware used by multiple associates?

The certificate binds to the device itself, not to whichever associate is using it. A shared register or tablet authenticates to the network on its own identity at boot, so it's online and ready before anyone logs in, and access policy can be set by device type regardless of who's operating it.

Take the Shared Password Off Every Store's Wi-Fi

Certificate-based access covers every register, tablet, and personal device across your store fleet, no shared password to manage or rotate.
