2025: Termidesk Compatibility
RED Security and Uveon Cloud Technologies have completed testing of the technological compatibility of the RED Security MFA multifactor authentication service and the Termidesk multi-platform VDI solution. RED Security announced this on December 5, 2025.
In 2025, hackers used leaked employee account data to gain initial access to infrastructure 35% of the time, according to the RED Security SOC Cyber Attack Monitoring and Response Center. The popularity of this hacking method is growing: in 2025 it was used by 12 percentage points, more often than a year earlier. This indicates that the databases of compromised corporate accounts available on the darknet contain sufficient information to attack large Russian companies, which began to be more actively used by attackers.
The combined use of RED Security MFA and Termidesk VDI allows you to strengthen protection against the risks associated with attacks on accounts, makes the use of personal devices in your work safer and helps companies comply with regulatory requirements, including 152-FZ. This is especially true for organizations with geographically distributed branches, as well as those companies whose employees work in a remote or hybrid format.
| Multifactor authentication is the company's first line of defense against attacks on remote employee accounts. At the same time, it is extremely important that it is reliable and convenient for users, and the results of testing technological compatibility with Termidesk confirm that the RED Security MFA service provides a high level of protection for virtual desktops, "said Natalia Kuzmenkova, head of multifactor authentication at RED Security. |
Multi-factor authentication in the VDI landscape creates a reliable chain. information protection The user enters credentials data on his device, after which the service Active Directory checks the correctness of the login password and transmits the results to VDI and the MFA service. RED Security MFA initiates a request for a second authentication factor, and when a person enters the necessary data, MFA server checks its correctness and notifies Termidesk that the authentication has been successful. As a result, the user gains secure access to the company's information systems.
| Our customers always have high security requirements for remote access solutions. Cooperation with colleagues from RED Security allows us to provide the customer with various options for multifactor authentication and ensure the necessary level of infrastructure security, - said Sergey Khalyapin, Director of New Markets and Technology Partners Development at Uveon - Cloud Technologies. |
2024: Introduction of multifactor authentication service for corporate users
MTS RED has supplemented the portfolio of cybersecurity services with domestic multifactor authentication technology for corporate users. It provides protection against hacking a company by attacking users' passwords, including using their automatic brute force or social engineering. MTS RED announced this on February 6, 2024.
According to data to researchers, over 80% hacker of attacks include the exploitation of weak or previously stolen user passwords. Since more than 50% of users use the same password for different accounts, the company may be vulnerable even due to compromise of employee data in a third-party service. This risk becomes more likely when using remote access to corporate resources - within the framework remote of or hybrid employee work format. The multi-factor RED service authentications MTS helps you follow the principles of the Zero Trust model to prevent unauthorized access to the company's information resources and network infrastructure during remote connection and thereby reduce the risk of network attacks and data breaches.
The service can be used when employees access any corporate resource using VPN, VDI, RDP and when accessing cloud and web applications. The use of software and hardware one-time password (OTP) generators is supported. The user can also receive codes to confirm authorization via SMS, phone call, Telegram or email.
| Multifactor authentication is a basic measure, the first echelon of protecting a company from attacks on remote employee accounts. It is important that such security technology is not only reliable, but also convenient for users - both for employees and for administrators. The MTS RED service fully meets these requirements, which makes it easy and seamless to integrate it into the general information security infrastructure of companies, "said Vasily Ognev, Head of Multifactor Authentication at MTS RED. |
MTS RED multifactor authentication service combines deep automation and flexibility in managing the entire token lifecycle. The administrator can detail the software and hardware token policies, determining the applicability of a particular type of authentication for a particular system up to the level of specific users. Through a multi-platform open stack of technologies, the service can easily be integrated with other enterprise systems, including single sign-on (SSO) technology.
In order to build a unified cybersecurity ecosystem, the service can be integrated with syslog servers and SIEM systems to centrally store event log records, configure triggers for events, and further correlate security events on external systems. The service logs all login attempts to target applications, as well as all actions in the administration console and self-service portal.
The use of multi-factor authentication technology from the cloud provides customers with the ability to connect in a few days, as well as quickly and flexibly scale the solution to geographically remote branches. In addition, the service model eliminates CAPEX costs for infrastructure and implementation.
