What IDmelon is

IDmelon helps organizations use existing ID badges, NFC cards, key fobs, smartphones, and biometrics as manageable FIDO security keys for workforce access. Its single sign-on lets employees open connected applications with a security key instead of entering a username or password. SAML 2.0 and OIDC integrations connect with Microsoft Entra ID, ADFS, Okta, Ping Identity, and Google Workspace, while listed application use cases include Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Citrix, and VMware Horizon. IDmelon describes automated assignment, onboarding, and activation of security keys. A Chrome and Edge Weblogin Extension is available, and listed support covers iOS 15.6 or later, Android 6.0 or later, Windows 10 and 11, and macOS 11.5 or later. Its FIDO Credential Provider supports Windows login for local or on-premises Active Directory accounts. The Admin Panel REST API exposes workspace, user, key, device, and authentication activity data. Deployment is hybrid, with adaptive access policies and device trust controls. A two-week trial includes unlimited security keys without a credit card.
