JumpCloud’s Open Directory: Your Key To Simplified Compliance and Security

Video Transcript

Below is a transcript of the video conversation between Antoine Jebara, Co-Founder and VP of MSP Business at Jumpcloud, and John Minnix and Tim Mekatrakarn, Founders of Bright Defense.

John: “What are the benefits of JumpCloud’s Open Directory for compliance?

Antoine: “JumpCloud can help secure any device regardless of its operating system. It’s intuitive and easy to use for administrators. JumpCloud also offers single sign-on and multi-factor authentication capabilities, which are basic requirements for most compliance certifications.

So from a benefits perspective, I would say that for some compliance requirements, you’re going to need to prove compliance. And if you have users living in two different directories, having JumpCloud as the switchboard that connects these directories gives you a centralized platform that allows you to manage more effectively the environments of your clients, leading to better adherence to compliance.

Tim: “So some of the ways our customers have benefited from using JumpCloud’s Open Directory is from the actual insights and reports that we can get from all the login activities. So we can see all the sign-ins and all the failed sign-in attempts, and and JumpCloud’s managing that for our customers.”
