Find GateKeeper in the Technology Showcase

A local government is not one workplace.

It is city hall, a police department, a public works garage, a utility facility, a courthouse, a library and an emergency communications center. Each department has different employees, workstations and operational pressures—but IT is expected to secure them all.

GateKeeper is exhibiting at the OAGITM 2026 Fall Conference to show Oregon government technology leaders how one authentication platform can help protect access across diverse public-sector environments.

The Oregon Association of Government Information Technology Management expects more than 100 technology leaders from city, county and state government at its four-day flagship conference. The 2025 event represented 61 agencies, and the 2026 program combines education, peer discussion, networking and a Technology Showcase in Eugene.

The Municipal Authentication Challenge

Consider four employees beginning work at the same time:

A finance employee at city hall

They need secure access to sensitive financial systems without repeatedly entering passwords throughout the day.

A police officer in a report room

They need to use a shared workstation while ensuring that access and activity remain associated with the correct person.

A public works employee at an operations facility

They may be working at a common terminal where personal phones and complicated authentication steps are impractical.

A 9-1-1 telecommunicator beginning a shift

They need fast access to a shared console without inheriting the previous employee’s open session.

These workflows look different, but they create the same questions for government IT:

Who is using the workstation?

How should that person authenticate?

What happens when they step away?

Can the next authorized employee take over without compromising accountability?

One Access Strategy Across Multiple Departments

GateKeeper Enterprise provides proximity-based multifactor authentication for individual and shared Windows computers. It combines fast workstation access, automatic walk-away locking, password automation, supported SSO workflows and user-level access auditing.

Local governments can use GateKeeper to address workflows involving:

• City and county administrative offices
• Police, corrections and public-safety departments
• 9-1-1 and emergency communications centers
• Public works and utility facilities
• Courts and records departments
• Libraries and public-access facilities
• Shared kiosks and departmental workstations
• Employees moving between multiple computers
• CJIS Compliance

GateKeeper is designed to help municipalities apply secure access policies without forcing every department into the same inefficient login experience.

What Happens When an Employee Walks Away?

Traditional workstation security often depends on one of two things:

The employee remembers to lock the computer.

Or:

An inactivity timer eventually locks it for them.

Neither method confirms whether the authorized user is still physically present.

A long timeout may leave an unattended workstation exposed. A short timeout may repeatedly interrupt an employee who is still working.

GateKeeper uses real-time presence detection to automatically secure a workstation when the authorized user moves away. Administrators can centrally manage authentication behavior, computer access groups and workstation activity across the organization.

Five Questions to Bring to the GateKeeper Showcase

Rather than sitting through a generic product presentation, bring us one real municipal IT challenge:

1. Where are employees sharing computers?

We will examine whether users have individual Windows accounts, common workstation accounts or kiosk-style workflows.

2. Which departments cannot rely on phone-based MFA?

We will discuss organization-controlled authentication options for fixed, frontline and restricted environments.

3. Where are credentials being shared?

We will map how individual authentication and user attribution could improve accountability on shared systems.

4. Which computers are frequently left unlocked?

We will demonstrate automatic walk-away locking and configurable workstation-security behavior.

5. Where does authentication consume the most employee time?

We will identify repeated Windows logins, passwords, MFA prompts and user-switching steps that may be streamlined.

Built for the Reality of Government IT

Government IT teams rarely have the luxury of standardizing every department, application and workstation at once.

The practical approach is to begin where the combination of risk and friction is highest.

That might be:

• Shared police workstations
• Dispatch consoles
• Public works terminals
• Finance department computers
• Utility control-room workstations
• Public-access kiosks
• Administrative computers containing sensitive information

GateKeeper can begin with a focused departmental deployment and expand as additional workflows are validated.

Four Days With Oregon’s Government IT Community

The OAGITM Fall Conference supports collaboration among technology leaders from Oregon cities, counties, state agencies and other public-sector organizations. The association’s objectives include identifying cybersecurity trends, sharing practical experience and helping government organizations use technology effectively.

The 2026 conference includes mainstage programming, breakout education, peer networking and a showcase of technology providers serving government agencies. An adjacent Oregon Cyber Resilience Summit is also scheduled at the University of Oregon on October 7, with participation from organizations including CISA, the FBI and the Oregon Titan Fusion Center.
