Unlock the Full Power of WhosOff: Advanced Features You Should Be Using

Here’s a full breakdown of the additional security options you can activate in your WhosOff account—and why they matter for your business.

Security is non-negotiable. WhosOff offers Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to add an extra layer of security to your account. Users can choose between receiving a One-Time Password (OTP) via email or using an authenticator app. Enabling MFA ensures that even if login credentials are compromised, unauthorised access is prevented.

• Required for compliance with internal security policies
• Reduces the risk of unauthorised access
• Provides peace of mind for both administrators and employees.

Managing multiple login credentials can be cumbersome. WhosOff supports Single Sign-On (SSO) integration with several identity providers, allowing users to access the platform using their existing organisational credentials. Supported SSO providers include:

• Microsoft Entra (Azure Active Directory)
• Google Workspace
• Okta
• Auth0
• OneLogin

• Streamlines the login process for users
• Centralises authentication management
• Enhances security by leveraging existing identity provider policies
