Manage customer and agent logins using IP Whitelisting

 

Restrict login access outside of work by whitelisting only office network addresses for agents and employees.

Create exclusive access for agents to log in from anywhere by linking IP whitelisting to a virtual private network (VPN).

Establish a login access system to regulate the entry of agents or agents and customers.

Simplify secure login through SSO

 

Set up a single sign-on (SSO) script to authenticate agents and users on your Freshdesk account by letting them use their existing credentials. Simplify account management by enabling SSO to work with your existing databases like Active Directory or social accounts like Google, Facebook and Twitter.
