Imprivata Confirm ID for Remote Access is the secure and convenient two-factor authentication solution for all healthcare enterprise employees who require remote network access.

Integration with leading VPNs and other remote access gateways

Fast, convenient push token notification

Through convenient push token notification, Imprivata Confirm ID for Remote Access enables the enforcement of two-factor authentication for remote access with a workflow that is fast and efficient for users. When accessing a VPN or other gateway, employees enter their username and password as the first factor of authentication.

The user simply swipes the notification from the lock screen of their device and pushes “Approve,” and the second factor of authentication is complete. Employees are not required to unlock their phone or type a soft OTP token, and they don’t have to carry at hardware token generator (though these methods are supported if necessary).
