Deepnet DualShield MFA Platform vs Protectimus MFA

Deepnet DualShield MFA Platform adds two-factor and multi-factor authentication to business applications and resources. Organizations can install it on-premises or host it in a private cloud; listed environments include Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows, web, API, and self-hosted. Authentication options include SMS, email and voice codes, push, OTP tokens and apps, cards, FIDO keys, biometrics, keystroke dynamics, and device-based signals. Integration methods include LDAP, RADIUS, SAML, FIDO, OATH, WS-Federation, and proprietary agents and clients. Adaptive policies evaluate context such as location, network, device, and time, and can block a request or call for stronger MFA. DualShield also provides single sign-on, identity and access management, and a portal for password changes, resets, and account unlocking. It can protect VPN and remote desktop access, operating-system logins, web and cloud services, and Outlook email. Event logs and email or SMS alerts support auditing and administration. The paid platform has pricing on request, and Deepnet offers a free trial through a request form; no trial duration is stated.

Protectimus MFA provides cloud and on-premise multi-factor authentication for teams and their customers. Authentication options include a mobile authenticator app, hardware OTP tokens, chatbots, SMS, email, and push notifications. Its cloud service is a ready-to-use SaaS option that avoids managing authentication equipment and infrastructure.

Listed integrations include Active Directory, LDAP, Windows and RDP, RADIUS, OWA, ADFS, Roundcube, VPNs, Citrix, and Office 365 SSO. Developers can use a REST API that supports XML and JSON, plus Java, Python, and PHP libraries. Additional integration methods include an iFrame widget, plugins, and integration components. On-premise deployments support multidomain environments, clustering, replication, and backups. Protectimus says its solution is OATH-certified and that it is an OATH coordinating member. Plans include a free option for 10 users and paid options; the Custom plan is $2 a month, billed per user.
