Cisco Duo · Managed by CTEKS

Add a second lock to every sign-in.

Cisco Duo is a multi-factor authentication platform that CTEKS can deploy and support so that a stolen password alone cannot open your accounts, VPN or business applications. We handle setup, user enrollment, access policies and ongoing support.

What CTEKS Handles

  • Duo deployment and user enrollment
  • MFA for VPN, email and business applications
  • Access and device policy configuration
  • Integration with Microsoft 365 and Active Directory
  • Single sign-on, where licensed
  • Staff communication and rollout support
  • Ongoing user and policy administration
Our approach

How a Cisco Duo engagement works

A simple, predictable process from first call to ongoing support.

Assess

We review what protects you today and where Cisco Duo would close gaps.

Plan

You get a deployment plan, scope and written quote before any work starts.

Implement

Phased rollout with testing so nothing breaks on the way to full coverage.

Support

Monitoring, response and periodic reviews keep protection effective.

Why CTEKS

Why businesses choose CTEKS for Cisco Duo

Tuned, not just installed

We configure Cisco Duo to your environment and tune alerts so your team sees real issues, not noise.

People watching the alerts

Our team triages what Cisco Duo finds and acts on it, instead of leaving you a dashboard to figure out.

Part of a layered defense

Cisco Duo works alongside MFA, backup, email security and patching so one miss does not become an incident.

Proven over time

Regular reviews confirm Cisco Duo is deployed everywhere it should be and still doing its job.

Good to know

A practical note on Cisco Duo

Available Duo features depend on your Duo edition and licensing. CTEKS recommends the setup that fits your environment and also supports the technologies you already have.

FAQ

Common questions

Do we need Duo if we already have Microsoft 365?

Not always. Microsoft 365 includes its own multi-factor authentication. Duo is often chosen by organizations that want one MFA across VPNs, firewalls, servers and business applications as well as Microsoft 365, or that already use it. We will recommend what fits.

Will it slow down my staff?

Usually only by a few seconds. Staff approve a prompt on their phone or use another method, and policies can remember trusted devices.
