What is XFA?
XFA is the device security solution that identifies every device used by people in your organization, informs users about risks, and verifies compliance with your security policy at login, without needing to manage the device. It runs standalone: no identity provider migration, no manual device enrollment.
What is Duo Security?
Duo Security is a multi-factor authentication (MFA) platform that verifies user identity using additional authentication factors such as push notifications, hardware tokens, or biometrics. For device security, Duo offers Device Trust. It checks devices in the Duo login prompt, through the Duo Desktop app on computers, and is only available in Duo's higher-tier plans. We will compare this specific feature with XFA.

What our customers say
"I think it's a good balance between being lightweight, non-intrusive, and transparent. Transparent in the sense of what you are looking at. The only way for me to get adoption was actually giving people access to the dashboard and showing what I'm looking at. Other solutions we tested didn't make it that transparent."
