“With XFA, we don’t need extra people or external people to manage [device security].”
Andreas CretenFounder & CEO, madewithloveRead the madewithlove storyYou decide what every device needs. If one doesn't meet them at sign-in, its owner sees what to fix and fixes it, often in one click. No ticket for IT.
Decide what a device needs before it can reach your apps. You set it once, and XFA applies it at every sign-in.

Timeline
Pick the device checks you need, such as operating system updates, disk encryption and screen lock.
For each check, choose to warn people, block the device, or both, and after how many days.
Set a compliance goal per check. Devices that miss it show as not compliant in your dashboard. On its own, it does not warn or block anyone.
Each time someone signs in to an app you protect, XFA checks the device first. What happens next depends on your rules.
Nobody from IT has to visit. The first time someone signs in, XFA asks them to install the app, and about a minute later they are in.
A new colleague’s first day
Many fixes take one click on the Fix button, at sign-in or in the XFA app. Nothing changes without their OK.
When a device fails your policy, XFA tells its owner what to fix.
XFA keeps checking every verified device against your default policy. If one fails a check, its owner gets an alert that names the device and what to fix.
Always by email to their work address. If you choose, also as a direct message in Slack or Microsoft Teams.
If the device still fails, the same alert goes out again every week, month or three months, whichever you pick. Once it is fixed, the alerts stop.
Your dashboard lists each device, its owner and whether it meets your rules.
Devices
Five more things XFA does, beyond the check at sign-in.
The XFA app runs on macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android. On a phone, people follow the steps in the app.
Download the XFA appWithout the app, XFA checks the device in Google Chrome, signed in with a Google account your organization manages. Your admin turns on Google’s free Chrome management.
Phishing-resistant MFA that checks the device in the same step.
XFA reads 30 days of sign-in logs from Google, Microsoft, or Okta, then keeps looking for new devices. With auto-invite on, anyone who has not set up XFA yet gets an invitation.
XFA checks device settings. It does not collect messages, files, or browsing history.

Yes. You set the rules once. People fix their own devices at sign-in or from the XFA app, and XFA sends the invites and risk alerts.
A warning tells people what to fix and still lets them sign in. A block stops the sign-in until the device is fixed. You choose per check whether it warns, blocks or both, and after how many days. Sign in anyway only shows when nothing on the device blocks.
Only if you set a check to block immediately. You can warn first and give people a set number of days before the block starts.
At sign-in, the Fix button hands the change to the XFA app on that computer. Nothing changes without the person’s OK. Checks without a Fix button come with a step by step guide, and on phones people follow the steps in the XFA app.
Neither. People install the XFA app themselves, without admin rights, on macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android.
Google Workspace, Microsoft Entra ID (Microsoft 365), Okta, OneLogin, Ping Identity, and Keycloak. You add XFA to yours as an MFA method or as an external identity provider, whichever it uses. You can also add the check to a single app over SAML or OpenID Connect (OAuth 2.0).
Yes. XFA sends invites, reminders, and risk alerts by email, Slack or Microsoft Teams. You choose the channels in the dashboard.
Private messages or emails, personal files, browsing history, screen recordings or screenshots, passwords and location data. You see check results and basic device details, linked to each person’s work email.
Nothing. Start for free, with device checks at sign-in from day one.
You have better things to do than IT security.
