Passwordless computer login.
Logging into your computer without a password can not only be quicker, but in fact, safer. It's not safe to simply have Windows not ask for a password. Instead, use a password caddie - GateKeeper will automatically authenticate your passwords for you. Log in to your computers without typing passwords - no more passwords to remember, forget, or mistype (and you don't need to use biometric fingerprint or facial scan, either). A password-free workflow awaits.
Make sure you have registered your hardware token (GateKeeper Halberd) or soft token (GateKeeper Trident app on your phone).
1. Open your GateKeeper Client application on your PC by pressing the Windows key on your keyboard and start typing "GateKeeper".
2. Click Settings on the left side.
3. Under "Unlock Settings", go to "Unlock Method", and select your preferred login/unlock method in the dropdown menu.
Automatic Login: |
Proximity login - once the user is in the range of the computer, the user will be authenticated. |
Press Enter to Login: |
Intent-oriented log in. When the token is in range of the computer, pressing the Enter key will authenticate the user. Best in places with many employees so that GateKeeper knows it's time to log someone in. |
Touch Login: |
Touch the token to the USB sensor to authenticate – just like an NFC card reader. |
GateKeeper with PIN Login: |
2FA: Requires the presence of a GateKeeper token and typing of a secret PIN to authenticate. |
Now, when you walk up to the computer, it will automatically authenticate your password if you have your token with you (or phone if you have the GateKeeper Trident app). All you have to do is perform the chosen action to login (automatic, press Enter, touch, or type your 2FA PIN) for a password-free login experience.
