Secure login to Windows PC

Prevent password sharing

To login to the Windows PCs in your company username and password is used. Now the employees can work. May be you also implemented a password changing policy, so that the users have to change their passwords every 90 days. And they should change it to a “secure” password. Consequently, the users are annoyed.

Often, simple passwords are chosen or passwords are written down. Or passwords are “shared” between colleagues, so that – in case of vacation or any other inconvenience – an employee can work with the account of a colleague
As a consequence

  • the employees are annoyed,
  • Passwörter neben dem Monitor oder der Tastatur zu finden sind,
  • It is not possible to determine whether the employee is actually behind the user name.
  • and it is finally no longer easily noticeable whether attacks on passwords have actually taken place.

Rather the interests of the company are

  • that employees are satisfied and do not have to waste time for unneccessary IT-tasks,
  • that passwords can be memorized easily and do not have to be written down,
  • that the account name really maps to the real employee
  • and that attacks on accounts can be avoided.
