What Ping Enterprise Connect is
Ping Enterprise Connect is a workforce multi-factor authentication solution for protecting enterprise workstations and infrastructure from unauthorized access. It adds MFA to Windows and Mac workstations and to virtual or remote Windows desktops, using PingID push notifications and one-time passcodes. Windows Desktop SSO can sign users into the Ping Identity environment after Windows login. For VPNs and other RADIUS tools, its Windows proxy converts local RADIUS calls into secured REST API requests to Ping Identity. Supported RADIUS methods include PingID push, TOTP/OATH passcodes, and username-and-password credentials through PAP. Enterprise Connect works with PingOne Advanced Identity Cloud or self-managed PingAM and configured authentication journeys. Windows support includes Windows 10, 11, and Server 2016, 2019, and 2022, with TPM 2.0 required; Windows 8.1 and Server 2012 are excluded. Mac support covers Sonoma, Ventura, and Monterey on Intel or Apple M1, M2, and M3 hardware. Pricing is available from a Ping Identity representative.
