    Duo Security engagements

What we do

Four capabilities. One audit-ready outcome.

MFA

Risk-adaptive MFA at scale

Duo MFA deployed across workforce, contractor, and high-privilege populations. Risk Factors policy library engineered to step up where it matters and step down where it does not.

BEYOND

Duo Beyond + Trusted Endpoints

Device-trust signals tied to access policy. Managed and unmanaged devices governed without a heavy MDM. The fastest path to identity-aware access for the SaaS catalog.

PASSPORT

Duo Passport for session reduction

Duo Passport rollout to reduce auth friction across the SaaS day. Risk-aware step-up for the few apps that warrant it, ambient SSO for the rest.

OPS

Operating model + runbooks

Quarterly review cadence, integration registry, and a written runbook. Designed for organizations using Duo as the universal MFA layer in front of Okta, Entra, or Ping.

Where this vendor wins

Use cases we have shipped.

  • Use case · 01

    Workforce-wide MFA rollout

    Duo MFA stood up across a 25,000-seat workforce in front of an existing IdP (Okta, Entra, or AD FS). Push, WebAuthn, and Duo Mobile passwordless engineered as the rollout target — not just SMS fallback.

  • Use case · 02

    Trusted Endpoints for partner / contractor populations

    Trusted Endpoints policies for unmanaged-device populations where MDM is impractical. Identity-aware access without buying every contractor a corporate device.

  • Use case · 03

    Passwordless rollout with WebAuthn / passkey

    Passwordless adoption flows engineered alongside fallback paths. Helpdesk runbook scoped for the 90-day adoption ramp.

  • Use case · 04

    Privileged access MFA hardening

    Duo deployed in front of CyberArk, BeyondTrust, or Delinea for privileged elevation. Step-up factor + recording wired together for audit-grade evidence.

When Duo Security is NOT the right call

We are partnered with Duo Security — and we will still tell you if your stack, regulator, or operating model points to a different platform. Duo Security is usually the wrong call when the audit posture and identity ownership sit outside the device-trust and phishing-resistance posture that Duo Security is built around. We will say so in week one — vendor-neutral judgment is part of what you are buying, not an upsell to a different SKU.

Why this practice

Duo Security delivery, done well.

  • Premier Partner status8 certified consultants on staff. Co-sell motion available on enterprise engagements where it benefits delivery.
  • Code-first deliveryWorkflows, connectors, and policies live in your repository. CI pipelines, version control, and rollback gates — not visual builders that nobody can maintain.
  • Operational handoffRunbooks, on-call shadow, and quarterly reviews handed off to your platform team. We do not vanish after go-live.
  • Vendor-neutral judgmentWe will tell you when the wrong vendor was bought. Honesty is part of the engagement.

FAQ

Common questions.

  • Are you a formal Duo / Cisco partner?+

    Yes. Premier Partner with eight certified consultants on staff. We co-deliver on engagements where Duo is the universal MFA layer across multiple IdPs and access platforms.

  • Should we use Duo MFA or the native MFA in our IdP?+

    Both, often. The pattern we recommend most: native MFA inside the IdP for primary login, Duo for step-up factor on high-risk paths and as the universal MFA layer in front of multiple IdPs. Duo wins when you need a single MFA experience across a heterogeneous identity estate.

  • How does Duo Trusted Endpoints compare to a full MDM?+

    Trusted Endpoints is a lightweight device-trust signal. It is not a substitute for MDM where you need control of the device — but for unmanaged, contractor, or BYO populations it is the highest-leverage way to add device-trust signals to access policy without buying full MDM.

  • Do you deliver Duo policy as code?+

    Yes. The Admin API + Git-tracked policy bundles, deployed via CI to a non-prod tenant first. The Admin Panel is fine for diagnosis; production policy lives in your repository.

  • How long does a typical Duo rollout take?+

    For a 25,000-seat workforce: 6-week build for the foundation, then 60-90 days for the population ramp. Helpdesk runbook and adoption metrics tracked weekly during the ramp.
