Workforce Security Built for Modern Access Control
Protect users, employee data, and system access with configurable BioSyn security settings. Specifically, manage password policies, session controls, MFA, SSO, allowed locations, alerts, and notifications from one workforce management platform. Additionally, these centralized controls help you enforce security policies while simplifying administration.
Why Access Control Security Matters in Workforce Management
Workforce platforms store sensitive employee, attendance, access and operational data, so strong security controls are essential. For example, they reduce the risk of unauthorised access, weak passwords, compromised accounts, suspicious logins and uncontrolled access from high‑risk locations. Consequently, BioSyn lets administrators apply flexible security configurations that match each organisation’s internal policies and risk requirements.
- Protect workforce and attendance data.
- Reduce account compromise risk.
- Strengthen login and password controls.
- Add MFA for sensitive access.
- Centralise identity through SSO.
- Monitor or block suspicious locations.
- Notify administrators when security events occur.
Global Security Settings

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Add an Extra Layer of Protection Without Compromising User Experience
MFA adds a second verification step after username and password validation. Specifically, BioSyn supports multiple MFA methods and trusted devices to improve security while keeping the login experience practical for users.
-
Email OTP:
Secure one-time codes delivered by email. -
SMS OTP:
Verification via mobile device. -
Authenticator apps:
Microsoft Authenticator, Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password, and Bitwarden. -
Trusted devices:
Reduce repeated MFA prompts for approved devices where policy allows.
Single Sign-On (SSO)
Seamless Corporate Identity Integration
SSO allows BioSyn to integrate with external identity providers and corporate directories, helping organisations centralise authentication and reduce password-related risk.
Benefits:
Simplified login:
One identity across systems.
Reduced password risks:
Fewer credentials for users to manage.
Centralised access control:
Align BioSyn access with existing IT policies.
Easier administration:
Support user-type mapping through groups.
Allowed Locations
Intelligent Access Control Security
BioSyn can restrict, monitor or escalate access based on approved locations. This helps businesses identify unusual access attempts and apply stronger controls when users log in from outside expected areas.
Monitor Only
Track unusual login activity without blocking access while policies are being tested.
Step-Up MFA
Require additional verification when a user logs in from a higher-risk location
Notify Security Team
Generate alerts for suspicious or unexpected login locations.
Block Access
Prevent access from high-risk or unapproved locations.
Supported Location Controls
- IP ranges
- Countries
- Regions
- Offices
- VPNs
- Sites
- Geo-radius rules.
Security Rules & Notifications
Stay Ahead of Potential Threats with Access Control Security
Automated alerts help administrators respond faster to security risks. Notification rules determine which events trigger alerts and which users, departments, or security teams should be informed.
Events Monitored:
- Failed logins
- Account lockouts
- MFA failures
- SSO failures
- New devices
- Suspicious locations
