Description

Identity Theft from a service desk is a real risk. If a hacker presents himself to a service desk supporter as a legitimate user with a user-id, the hacker will often be able to “steal” a password for the user with social engineering methods. This is Identity Theft. You can prevent this with FastPass “User verification with TOPdesk”.

Integrated in the TOPdesk ticket handling FastPass will force the supporter to follow a sequence of steps, to assure that it is the real user. Only FastPass can issue the new temporary password – the supporter must be blocked from access to Microsoft privileged rights for password issuance. The process is fast and intuitive- see the video:
