Contextual Access Control

Define the conditions under which users and groups can access your organization’s apps and data with Akku’s contextual access control. Reinforce security by continuously checking these context signals before granting or maintaining access.

  • Control user access based context factors like IP, device, time, and geo‑location
  • Treat every access request as untrusted until it is fully verified against policy
  • Limit when, where, and how critical apps and data can be accessed to reduce risk

What is Contextual Access Control?

Contextual access control is a security approach where user access is granted or denied based on real-time context - such as where the user is connecting from, which device is used, when access is requested, and other risk indicators. Instead of static rules, it applies adaptive policies that change depending on risk level, helping enterprises secure modern, distributed work environments.

01

IP-based Access Controls

Empower administrators to create whitelists of approved IP addresses, restricting access to your organization’s applications solely to authorized locations such as offices or users' homes.  Ensure that users can only access apps and data from approved locations, enhancing security and control over access privileges.

02

Device-based Access Restriction

Ensures that only devices registered against a specific user profile can access that user's account by utilizing Akku’s agent to collect the serial number and BIOS UUID from each user’s device, and associating these details with the user profile. Restrict access from unrecognized devices with Akku verifying both user and device details during login attempts.

03

Time-Based Access Controls

Give your administrators the ability to set specific time intervals for restricting access. Ensure that access to your organization's applications is only permitted during designated time periods, and restrict access outside of these predefined times to enhance security.

04

Geo-Location-based Access Controls

Automate real-time and scheduled bi-directional data syncs across multiple directories with built-in conflict resolution, ensuring consistent user information and immediate propagation of changes.

05

Quarantine Access Controls

Put high‑risk or non-compliant users and devices into a restricted access zone where they can only access limited resources until they meet security requirements.
