Workforce identity management for manufacturing

Touchless Identity and Access Control for Manufacturing Companies

Hideez enables fast, hands-free authentication in production environments where operators work in PPE and move between stations. Employees can access shared Windows workstations, SCADA, MES, ERP, and other industrial systems — including legacy applications — using passwordless methods such as RFID/NFC keys and proximity-based login, even in mobile-restricted environments.

Automatic presence detection

Contactless endpoint login and logoff 

Audit logs for better traceability and compliance

Why Hideez?

Reduce production delays and eliminate access bottlenecks across shift-based operations. Hideez minimizes downtime caused by manual logins and shared credentials, while improving traceability of user actions across industrial systems and helping teams maintain continuous operations without compromising security.

Active Directory & Entra integration: Connect Hideez to AD or Entra ID in a few clicks to sync users automatically and centrally manage credential rotation across systems and workstations.

Free trial and POC: Start with a free proof of concept to validate key access scenarios in your real clinical environment.

Regulatory compliance: Align with industrial cybersecurity standards such as NIST guidelines by enforcing strong, phishing-resistant authentication and ensuring secure, auditable access to production systems, workstations, and critical infrastructure.

Access to shared workstations

Works in shared workstation environments, including closely located devices, offline scenarios, and RDP access.

Passwordless Single Sign-On

Passwordless SSO for web services, including applications that do not natively support SAML or OIDC protocols.

Flexible deployment

Deploy Hideez on premises, in a dedicated private cloud, or in a multitenant cloud environment hosted in the US or Europe.

Use cases

Identity security for manufacturing

Strengthen identity security across IT and OT environments by enforcing strong authentication and reducing reliance on shared credentials. Improve visibility and control over user access to critical industrial systems.

Secure workstation access in factories

Enable fast, secure login to shared workstations on the shop floor, even in environments with PPE or limited connectivity. 

Remote access solutions for industrial systems

Protect remote access to industrial systems such as SCADA, MES, and engineering tools via VPN or RDP. 

Access control for ERP systems

Secure access to ERP platforms used for production planning, inventory, and operations management. Enforce strong authentication while maintaining usability for daily workflows.

Automatic proximity-based logoff 

Automatically lock workstations when operators leave their stations, preventing unauthorized access in dynamic production environments. Improve compliance without relying on user behavior.

RFID / NFC access control for industrial areas

Use hardware keys to control access to restricted production zones and facilities via RFID or NFC. 

Use cases

Multifactor authentication for manufacturing

Deploy phishing-resistant MFA for employees, supervisors, and administrators accessing production and business systems. Mobile authentication helps strengthen security without adding extra hardware for every user.

Online/offline login to shared workstations

Enable fast login to shared Windows workstations on the shop floor using mobile authentication, even in environments with limited or unstable connectivity. 

Passwordless Single Sign-On

Give employees secure access to multiple web and internal systems through one passwordless sign-in.

Automatic proximity-based logoff

Automatically lock shared workstations when users move away with their mobile device. 

Use cases

Biometric access to web services

Employees can sign in to web services using the mechanisms built into their smartphones or workstations, including fingerprint, Face ID, or a personal PIN.

Phishing-resisant MFA

Passkeys are phishing-resistant since authentication is tied to the user’s device. Access is fast and straightforward, with no need to remember passwords or enter one-time codes.

Integration with FIDO2 security keys

Hideez supports FIDO2 security keys from other vendors, including Yubico. Combine different authentication methods without replacing their existing security stack.
