Financial / FinTech

No other industry has higher stakes when it comes to securing their infrastructure. Hacker and rogue employees have a lot to gain from illicit access. Foxpass helps many financial companies adhere to best practices like password and SSH key rotation, and individual access to wireless networks and VPNs. Our access control products give unprecedented flexibility to restrict server access to only those who are authorized, and only during authorized time periods.

key facts

“Prior to Foxpass, LendUp had two engineers dedicated to managing LDAP and RADIUS. Today our access controls are fully automated and we can use the headcount for growing the business. ”

Reliability and uptime have improved significantly. 

Foxpass was fast and easy to deploy, its cloud-hosted solution is easy to integrate with our entire infrastructure, and the intuitive UI makes it easy to use. 

The Challenge

LendUp was growing quickly and the IT team was starting to feel the pain of manually managing access to its infrastructure. They had to manually create user accounts, reset passwords and were managing their own LDAP and RADIUS using a combination of legacy and open-source solutions.

This took up valuable resources and time, as well as created reliability and stability issues that IT had to troubleshoot on a regular basis. LendUp wanted to find a single solution that would help them scale, automate and simplify access management to their infrastructure while saving them valuable IT time.
