SUMMARY:OAGITM 2026 Fall Conference
DESCRIPTION:One Government Network. Hundreds of Ways In.\nSee GateKeeper at the OAGITM 2026 Fall Conference\nOctober 5–8\, 2026Graduate by Hilton | Eugene\, OregonFind GateKeeper in the Technology Showcase \nA local government is not one workplace. \nIt 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. \nGateKeeper 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. \nThe 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.  \nThe Municipal Authentication Challenge\nConsider four employees beginning work at the same time: \nA finance employee at city hall\nThey need secure access to sensitive financial systems without repeatedly entering passwords throughout the day. \nA police officer in a report room\nThey need to use a shared workstation while ensuring that access and activity remain associated with the correct person. \nA public works employee at an operations facility\nThey may be working at a common terminal where personal phones and complicated authentication steps are impractical. \nA 9-1-1 telecommunicator beginning a shift\nThey need fast access to a shared console without inheriting the previous employee’s open session. \nThese workflows look different\, but they create the same questions for government IT: \n\nWho is using the workstation? \n\n\nHow should that person authenticate? \n\n\nWhat happens when they step away? \n\n\nCan the next authorized employee take over without compromising accountability? \n\nOne Access Strategy Across Multiple Departments\nGateKeeper 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.  \nLocal governments can use GateKeeper to address workflows involving: \n\nCity and county administrative offices\nPolice\, corrections and public-safety departments\n9-1-1 and emergency communications centers\nPublic works and utility facilities\nCourts and records departments\nLibraries and public-access facilities\nShared kiosks and departmental workstations\nEmployees moving between multiple computers\nCJIS Compliance\n\nGateKeeper is designed to help municipalities apply secure access policies without forcing every department into the same inefficient login experience.  \nWhat Happens When an Employee Walks Away?\nTraditional workstation security often depends on one of two things: \nThe employee remembers to lock the computer. \nOr: \nAn inactivity timer eventually locks it for them. \nNeither method confirms whether the authorized user is still physically present. \nA long timeout may leave an unattended workstation exposed. A short timeout may repeatedly interrupt an employee who is still working. \nGateKeeper 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.  \nFive Questions to Bring to the GateKeeper Showcase\nRather than sitting through a generic product presentation\, bring us one real municipal IT challenge: \n1. Where are employees sharing computers?\nWe will examine whether users have individual Windows accounts\, common workstation accounts or kiosk-style workflows. \n2. Which departments cannot rely on phone-based MFA?\nWe will discuss organization-controlled authentication options for fixed\, frontline and restricted environments. \n3. Where are credentials being shared?\nWe will map how individual authentication and user attribution could improve accountability on shared systems. \n4. Which computers are frequently left unlocked?\nWe will demonstrate automatic walk-away locking and configurable workstation-security behavior. \n5. Where does authentication consume the most employee time?\nWe will identify repeated Windows logins\, passwords\, MFA prompts and user-switching steps that may be streamlined. \nBuilt for the Reality of Government IT\nGovernment IT teams rarely have the luxury of standardizing every department\, application and workstation at once. \nThe practical approach is to begin where the combination of risk and friction is highest. \nThat might be: \n\nShared police workstations\nDispatch consoles\nPublic works terminals\nFinance department computers\nUtility control-room workstations\nPublic-access kiosks\nAdministrative computers containing sensitive information\n\nGateKeeper can begin with a focused departmental deployment and expand as additional workflows are validated. \nFour Days With Oregon’s Government IT Community\nThe 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.  \nThe 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.  \nMeet GateKeeper at OAGITM 2026\nOctober 5–8\, 2026Graduate by HiltonEugene\, OregonTechnology Showcase \nGive every department faster access—and give IT clearer control.

SUMMARY:2026 Washington Public Safety Communications Conference
DESCRIPTION:Build the 9-1-1 Center People Want to Work In—Starting at the Workstation\nMeet GateKeeper at the 2026 WA APCO-NENA Fall Conference\nOctober 13–15\, 2026Kitsap Conference Center | Bremerton\, Washington \nThe 2026 WA APCO-NENA Fall Conference asks public-safety leaders to imagine “the center we want to work in.” \nThat center should not force telecommunicators to choose between fast access and secure access. \nIt should not encourage employees to leave sessions open because signing back in takes too long. It should not require the incoming shift to continue working under someone else’s identity. And it should not leave IT guessing who was actually using a shared workstation. \nGateKeeper is coming to Bremerton to demonstrate a better experience. \nThe WA APCO-NENA Fall Conference takes place October 13–15 at the Kitsap Conference Center. The 2026 theme is “Culture Reimagined: Building the center we want to work in\,” with training\, keynote programming\, networking and the annual chapter awards ceremony.  \nOne Console. Three Moments That Matter.\n1. The Start of the Shift\nA telecommunicator arrives at a shared console. \nThey need access to Windows\, CAD\, mapping\, records and other critical resources. They should not have to type multiple passwords\, wait for a phone prompt or continue using the previous employee’s session. \nGateKeeper helps authorized users access shared Windows workstations using organization-approved authentication methods\, including proximity-based and hardware-token workflows. The objective is faster access without losing individual accountability.  \n2. The Moment Someone Steps Away\nA telecommunicator leaves the console to speak with a supervisor\, assist a colleague or respond to an operational need. \nTraditional inactivity timeouts create an uncomfortable choice. Set the timeout too long\, and an unattended workstation remains exposed. Set it too short\, and the computer locks while someone is still actively working. \nGateKeeper can automatically secure the workstation when the authorized user moves away. The agency controls whether the configured action locks the computer\, disconnects the session for fast user switching or signs the user out.  \n3. The Handoff\nThe next employee takes the position. \nThey should begin under their own identity—not inherit the previous telecommunicator’s open session. \nGateKeeper is designed for shared-computer environments where multiple employees need rapid access throughout the day. Each user can authenticate independently\, helping administrators maintain cleaner records of who accessed the workstation and when.  \nThe Best Security Process Is the One People Can Follow\nPassword sharing\, unattended sessions and inaccurate audit trails are often treated as employee-behavior problems. \nBut sometimes the approved process simply does not fit the work. \nWhen authentication is slow or repetitive\, employees naturally search for shortcuts. A more practical security strategy removes the incentive to take those shortcuts. \nGateKeeper helps emergency communications centers create a workflow that is: \nFast enough for operationsEmployees can begin work without unnecessary login delays. \nSecure when users move awayWorkstations can lock automatically instead of relying only on memory or inactivity. \nAccountable across shared consolesEach employee can access the workstation under an individually attributable identity. \nPractical without personal phonesHardware-based MFA can support environments where phone authentication is inconvenient\, restricted or undesirable. \nCentrally controlled by ITAdministrators can manage authentication policies\, computers\, users and access activity through GateKeeper Hub.  \nPut GateKeeper Through the Dispatch Test\nAt the WA APCO-NENA vendor floor\, do not just ask us for a presentation. \nGive us a real scenario: \n\n“Our dispatchers share Windows accounts.” \n\n\n“People leave CAD workstations unlocked.” \n\n\n“The next shift sometimes works under the previous user.” \n\n\n“Our timeout policy interrupts active work.” \n\n\n“Phone-based MFA does not fit our center.” \n\n\n“We need stronger access records without slowing everyone down.” \n\nWe will help break the workflow into four decisions: \n\nWho needs access?\nWhich workstation or system do they need?\nHow should they authenticate?\nWhat should happen when they leave?\n\nThen we will demonstrate how GateKeeper could fit into that process. \nMeet Washington’s 9-1-1 Community\nWA APCO-NENA expects more than 150 attendees from PSAPs and partner agencies across Washington\, including frontline telecommunicators\, supervisors\, trainers\, directors and technology decision-makers. The vendor floor is designed for up to 50 exhibitors\, creating a focused setting for conversations about public-safety operations and technology.  \nGateKeeper Vendor-Floor Demonstrations\nWednesday\, October 14\, 20261:15–5:15 p.m.Kitsap Conference CenterBremerton\, Washington \nThe full conference runs from October 13 through October 15\, with the vendor floor scheduled for Wednesday afternoon.  \nCome See a Better Workstation Handoff\nThe outgoing user walks away. \nThe workstation secures itself. \nThe incoming user authenticates under the correct identity. \nThe center keeps moving. \nFast access. Automatic protection. Individual accountability.

SUMMARY:2026 California APCO State Training Conference (CalAPCO)
DESCRIPTION:GateKeeper at CalAPCO 2026\nAt 2:13 a.m.\, the next telecommunicator cannot wait for the workstation.\nOctober 18–21\, 2026Town & Country Resort | San Diego\, CaliforniaBooth #511 \nA shift changes. A telecommunicator moves to another console. A supervisor needs immediate access. Someone steps away during an active incident. \nInside an emergency communications center\, workstation access is not an ordinary IT task. It is part of the response. \nGateKeeper is exhibiting at the 2026 California APCO State Training Conference to show California’s public-safety communications community a faster way to secure shared workstations—without placing another obstacle between telecommunicators and the systems they need. \nCalAPCO 2026 takes place October 18–21 at the Town & Country Resort in San Diego. The statewide conference is expected to feature more than 60 professional-development sessions\, over 100 exhibitors and two days of vendor exhibits. It is described by California APCO as the largest annual APCO International event on the West Coast.  \nThe Shared-Console Problem\nConsider a common shift change: \nThe outgoing telecommunicator leaves a workstation open because signing out could interrupt the workflow. \nThe incoming employee begins working under the previous person’s session because logging in again takes too long. \nThe work continues—but the audit trail no longer reflects the person actually using the computer. \nThat is not simply a password problem. \nIt is an identity\, accountability and operational-readiness problem. \nGateKeeper helps emergency communications centers give authorized employees fast access to shared Windows workstations\, automatically secure computers when users leave and maintain clearer records of who accessed each computer.  \nA Better Shift Change\nWith GateKeeper\, the experience can look different: \nThe outgoing user walks away.The workstation locks according to the agency’s configured policy. \nThe next user arrives.They authenticate with an organization-approved credential rather than continuing under the previous employee’s identity. \nThe workstation becomes available.The authorized user can begin working without repeatedly typing long passwords or depending on a personal phone. \nIT retains control.Administrators centrally manage users\, computers\, permissions and authentication settings through GateKeeper Hub.  \nThree Things to Experience at Our CalAPCO Booth\n1. The Walk-Away Test\nWatch what happens when an authorized employee leaves a workstation. \nGateKeeper can automatically lock the computer based on user proximity\, reducing reliance on telecommunicators remembering to press a key combination or waiting for a conventional inactivity timeout.  \n2. The User-Switching Test\nSee how another authorized employee can take over a shared workstation under their own identity. \nGateKeeper supports secure shared-computer workflows\, individual user attribution and configurable Windows lock\, logoff or session-disconnect behavior.  \n3. The Phone-Free MFA Test\nSee how an agency can introduce strong workstation authentication without requiring employees to retrieve a personal phone for every login. \nGateKeeper offers hardware-based\, proximity and other supported authentication workflows that can operate without depending on a phone or internet connection at the point of authentication.  \nDesigned for the Reality of Public-Safety Communications\nGateKeeper is especially relevant when an agency is dealing with: \nShared dispatch workstations\nMultiple employees use the same computers across shifts\, but the agency still needs individual accountability. \nSlow console transitions\nIncoming personnel need to begin working quickly without inheriting another employee’s active session. \nUnattended computers\nAdministrators cannot rely exclusively on every user remembering to manually lock a workstation. \nPassword fatigue\nTelecommunicators repeatedly type\, reset or share credentials because the approved process does not fit the operational workflow. \nRestricted personal devices\nPhone-based authentication is impractical\, discouraged or prohibited in parts of the facility. \nMultiple centers or departments\nIT needs to manage workstation-access policies consistently across different sites\, teams and computer groups. \nCalifornia APCO’s 2026 educational program includes cybersecurity\, IT and GIS for public safety\, emerging technologies\, NG9-1-1\, communications-center operations and public-safety software—topics closely connected to the workstation-access challenges GateKeeper addresses.  \nBring Us One Difficult Workflow\nYou do not need to arrive with a complete technology plan. \nBring us one problem: \n\n“Our dispatchers share Windows accounts.” \n\n\n“Our timeout policy locks computers at the wrong moment.” \n\n\n“Users keep working under the previous shift’s session.” \n\n\n“Phone-based MFA does not work in our center.” \n\n\n“We cannot reliably identify who used a shared workstation.” \n\n\n“Our security requirements are slowing down operations.” \n\nThe GateKeeper team will help break the workflow into four questions: \n\nWho needs access?\nWhat computer or application are they accessing?\nHow should they authenticate?\nWhat should happen when they leave?\n\nFrom there\, we can determine whether GateKeeper is a fit for the agency’s environment. \nWho Should Meet With GateKeeper?\nStop by if you work in: \n\nEmergency communications or PSAP operations\nPublic-safety IT\nCybersecurity\nCAD or RMS administration\nCommunications-center management\nCounty or municipal technology\nLaw-enforcement technology\nIdentity and access management\n\nCalifornia APCO brings together public-safety communications officials and emergency responders from local\, state and federal agencies. California’s APCO organization represents more than 1\,600 members across the state.  \nMeet GateKeeper at CalAPCO 2026\nOctober 18–21\, 2026Town & Country ResortSan Diego\, CaliforniaBooth #511 \nThe next person at the console should not inherit the previous person’s identity.

SUMMARY:2026 Virginia APCO/NENA/SIEC Conference
DESCRIPTION:Meet GateKeeper at the 2026 Virginia APCO/NENA/SIEC Interoperability Conference\nFaster access for telecommunicators. Stronger security for every shared public-safety workstation.\nOctober 27–29\, 2026The Hotel Roanoke & Conference Center | Roanoke\, VirginiaMeet GateKeeper in the Exhibit Hall Booth #415 \nGateKeeper is exhibiting at the 2026 Virginia APCO/NENA/SIEC Interoperability Conference to demonstrate how emergency communications centers can strengthen workstation security without slowing down telecommunicators. \nEvery second matters inside a 9-1-1 center. Dispatchers and call-takers need immediate access to CAD\, call-handling\, mapping\, records and other mission-critical applications. Repeated passwords\, slow user switching and phone-based MFA can interrupt that workflow. \nGateKeeper helps public-safety agencies deliver fast\, secure workstation access while maintaining individual accountability. \nThe conference takes place October 27–29\, 2026\, at The Hotel Roanoke & Conference Center. Virginia APCO describes it as its signature annual event\, presented with Virginia NENA and SIEC\, featuring training\, networking\, breakout sessions\, keynote speakers and an exhibitor showcase.  \nSecure the Workstation Without Slowing the Response\nTraditional identity systems often assume that each employee works from one dedicated computer. \nEmergency communications centers operate differently. \nTelecommunicators may rotate between consoles\, share computers across shifts\, move between positions and access several critical applications from the same workstation. During staffing changes or major incidents\, another authorized user may need to take over immediately. \nGateKeeper helps agencies: \n\nDeliver fast\, phone-free multifactor authentication\nReduce repeated password entry\nSecure shared Windows workstations\nAutomatically lock unattended consoles\nAccelerate secure user switching and shift changes\nAssociate workstation access with the correct employee\nImprove accountability on shared computers\nCentrally manage authentication policies across locations\n\nShared Consoles Should Not Create Shared Identities\nA shared workstation can create serious accountability problems. \nOne telecommunicator may leave a session open. Another employee may continue working under that person’s account. Teams may also rely on shared credentials because signing in repeatedly takes too long. \nGateKeeper creates a faster and more accountable workflow: \n\nThe telecommunicator authenticates under their own identity.\nGateKeeper provides secure access to the workstation.\nThe computer automatically locks when the authorized user leaves.\nThe next employee authenticates under their own credentials.\nAdministrators gain a clearer record of who accessed the workstation.\n\nThe result is: \nFaster access for telecommunicators.Automatic protection for unattended consoles.Clearer accountability for administrators. \nPhone-Free MFA for Public Safety\nPersonal phones are not always practical inside an emergency communications center. \nMobile devices may be restricted\, discouraged or unavailable on the operations floor. Repeatedly retrieving a phone and approving an MFA request can also create unnecessary interruptions during time-sensitive work. \nGateKeeper provides organization-controlled authentication options designed for shared computers\, fixed consoles and frontline environments. \nAgencies can strengthen authentication without requiring employees to depend on personal phones for every login. \nBuilt for 9-1-1 and Emergency Communications Workflows\nVisit GateKeeper at the Virginia APCO/NENA/SIEC Conference to discuss challenges involving: \nShared dispatch consoles\nGive each telecommunicator fast access while keeping activity associated with the correct identity. \nShift changes\nHelp incoming personnel begin work quickly without continuing under another employee’s session. \nUnattended workstations\nAutomatically secure consoles when authorized users move away. \nRepeated password entry\nReduce time spent typing\, remembering and resetting complex passwords throughout a shift. \nCAD and public-safety applications\nImprove the workstation login experience surrounding CAD\, call-handling\, records\, mapping and other supported systems. \nMultiple centers and locations\nApply consistent authentication and workstation-security policies across departments\, facilities and agencies. \nCybersecurity and compliance\nImprove individual accountability while reducing practices such as password sharing and unattended open sessions. \nIdentity Security That Supports Interoperability\nInteroperability depends on more than connecting radios\, networks and public-safety systems. \nAuthorized personnel must also be able to access those systems securely and efficiently. \nGateKeeper helps agencies strengthen the human access layer by answering three essential questions: \n\nWho is using this workstation? \n\n\nIs the authorized user still present? \n\n\nWhat happens when the next employee takes over? \n\nBy combining rapid authentication\, automatic locking and individual user attribution\, GateKeeper helps protect the workstation without creating another obstacle for emergency personnel. \nSee GateKeeper in Action\nMeet the GateKeeper team in the exhibit hall for a live demonstration of: \n\nFast workstation authentication\nPhone-free MFA\nAutomatic walk-away locking\nSecure user switching\nShared-computer accountability\nCentralized administrative controls\n\nBring us your most difficult public-safety authentication workflow. Our team will help map how GateKeeper could work alongside your existing identity\, CAD and emergency communications environment. \nMeet GateKeeper in Roanoke\n2026 Virginia APCO/NENA/SIEC Interoperability ConferenceOctober 27–29\, 2026The Hotel Roanoke & Conference CenterRoanoke\, Virginia \nSecure every session without slowing the response.

SUMMARY:2026 FL NENA Fall Training Conference & Expo
DESCRIPTION:Meet GateKeeper at the 2026 Florida NENA Fall Training Conference & Expo\nFaster access for 9-1-1 professionals. Stronger security for every shared workstation.\nDecember 5–11\, 2026Luminary Hotel | Fort Myers\, FloridaMeet GateKeeper in the Expo Hall \nGateKeeper is exhibiting at the 2026 Florida NENA Fall Training Conference & Expo to demonstrate a more practical approach to securing 9-1-1 and emergency communications workstations. \nTelecommunicators need fast access to CAD\, call-handling\, mapping\, records and other critical systems. However\, repeated passwords and phone-based MFA can create friction during time-sensitive work. \nGateKeeper helps emergency communications centers strengthen authentication without slowing down the people answering the call. \nThe Florida NENA conference is scheduled for December 5–11\, 2026\, at the Luminary Hotel in Fort Myers. Its educational program is being developed around two primary tracks: PSAP Operations and PSAP Technology.  \nSecure the Workstation Without Slowing the Response\nMany identity solutions assume that every employee has a personal computer. \nA 9-1-1 center operates differently. \nTelecommunicators may rotate between consoles\, share computers across shifts and access several systems from the same workstation. During staffing changes or major incidents\, the next authorized user may need to take over immediately. \nGateKeeper helps agencies: \n\nProvide fast\, phone-free multifactor authentication\nReduce repeated password entry\nSecure shared Windows workstations\nAutomatically lock unattended consoles\nAccelerate secure shift changes\nAssociate workstation access with the correct user\nImprove accountability on shared computers\nCentrally manage authentication policies\n\nShared Consoles Should Not Create Shared Identities\nWhen several telecommunicators use the same workstation\, it can become difficult to determine who is actually operating under a session. \nOne employee may leave a computer open. The next person may continue working under the previous user’s account. Shared credentials may also be used because logging in repeatedly takes too long. \nGateKeeper helps replace that uncertainty with a faster\, more accountable workflow: \n\nThe telecommunicator authenticates under their own identity.\nGateKeeper provides secure workstation access.\nThe computer locks when the authorized user walks away.\nThe next employee signs in under their own credentials.\nAdministrators gain a clearer record of workstation access.\n\nThe goal is simple: \nFaster access for telecommunicators.Automatic protection for unattended computers.Clearer accountability for administrators. \nPhone-Free MFA for Emergency Communications Centers\nPersonal phones are not always practical on the operations floor. \nA telecommunicator may not have immediate access to a mobile device. Agency policies may discourage personal phones near sensitive systems. Repeated approval prompts can also interrupt concentration during critical calls. \nGateKeeper provides authentication options designed for fixed workstations\, shared consoles and frontline environments. \nUsers can authenticate through organization-approved credentials without depending on a personal phone for every login. \nBuilt for Public-Safety Workflows\nVisit GateKeeper at the Florida NENA Expo to discuss challenges involving: \nShared dispatch consoles\nGive each telecommunicator fast access while keeping sessions associated with the correct user. \nShift changes\nHelp incoming personnel begin work quickly without continuing under another employee’s account. \nUnattended workstations\nAutomatically secure consoles when authorized users move away. \nRepeated password entry\nReduce time spent typing and resetting complex passwords throughout a shift. \nPhone-based MFA\nIntroduce strong authentication in environments where personal devices are impractical or restricted. \nMultiple PSAP locations\nManage workstation authentication policies across centers from a centralized platform. \nSupporting the People Behind 9-1-1\nThe Florida Chapter of NENA works to advance 9-1-1 services and support public-safety dispatchers as they assist the public and other first responders.  \nGateKeeper supports that mission by addressing an operational challenge that affects every shift: giving authorized personnel fast access while keeping critical workstations protected. \nSecurity should support the telecommunicator’s workflow—not compete with it. \nSee GateKeeper in Action\nVisit our team in the Expo Hall for a live demonstration of: \n\nFast workstation authentication\nAutomatic walk-away locking\nSecure user switching\nPhone-free MFA\nShared-computer accountability\nCentralized administrative controls\n\nBring us your most difficult workstation-access workflow. Our team will help you map how GateKeeper could fit alongside your existing CAD\, identity and public-safety technology environment. \nMeet GateKeeper at Florida NENA 2026\nDecember 5–11\, 2026Luminary Hotel | Fort Myers\, Florida \nEvery second matters. Authentication should not waste one.

SUMMARY:Manufacturing IT/OT Summit USA 2027
DESCRIPTION:GateKeeper Returns to the Manufacturing IT/OT Summit USA 2027\nSecure every shared workstation without slowing down production.\nMarch 10–11\, 2027Sheraton Boston Hotel | Boston\, Massachusetts\nBooth #16 \nAfter exhibiting at the Manufacturing IT/OT Summit USA in 2026\, GateKeeper is returning in 2027 to continue helping manufacturers solve a critical challenge: \nHow do you strengthen identity security on the plant floor without disrupting production?\nManufacturing employees routinely move between shared computers\, production stations\, laboratory workstations\, control rooms and Manufacturing Execution Systems. Traditional passwords and phone-based MFA can introduce delays\, encourage credential sharing and make it difficult to determine who actually accessed a system. \nGateKeeper brings fast\, practical authentication to these environments. \nVisit our booth to see how proximity-based MFA\, automatic workstation locking and fast user switching can help manufacturers protect access while keeping operations moving. \nThe Manufacturing IT/OT Summit USA brings together manufacturing technology leaders focused on IT/OT convergence\, connectivity\, cybersecurity and the infrastructure supporting modern industrial operations. The organizer currently lists the 2027 event for March 10–11 at the Sheraton Boston Hotel.  \nAuthentication Built for the Plant Floor\nMany identity tools were designed for employees working at personal laptops or individual office desks. \nManufacturing works differently. \nOperators may share terminals across shifts. Technicians may move between machines. Laboratory personnel may wear gloves or work in areas where phones are restricted. Engineers may need access to several workstations and applications throughout the facility. \nGateKeeper helps manufacturers: \n\nDeliver fast\, phone-free MFA\nReduce repeated password entry\nSecure shared Windows workstations\nAutomatically lock unattended computers\nEnable faster and more accountable user switching\nCreate traceable access records for shared terminals\nSimplify access to supported MES\, websites and applications\nCentrally manage authentication policies across facilities\n\nGateKeeper is designed to help manufacturers combine stronger workstation security with efficient frontline workflows.  \nFrom Shared Terminals to Individual Accountability\nShared computers often create shared identities. \nEmployees may continue using a workstation opened by the previous operator. Accounts may remain signed in between shifts. Passwords may be written down or shared because logging in repeatedly takes too long. \nThat creates gaps in security\, accountability and auditability. \nGateKeeper helps associate workstation access with the individual employee—even when multiple people use the same computer throughout the day. \nWhen an authorized user approaches or authenticates\, GateKeeper can provide fast access based on the organization’s configured policies. When that person leaves\, the workstation can lock automatically. The next employee then authenticates under their own identity.  \nReturning After the 2026 Summit\nOur conversations at the 2026 Manufacturing IT/OT Summit reinforced a clear message: \nManufacturers want stronger access controls\, but security cannot become another source of downtime. \nIn 2027\, GateKeeper will return to demonstrate how authentication can become a natural part of the production workflow rather than a recurring interruption. \nOur team will be ready to discuss environments involving: \nShared shop-floor computers\nGive operators faster access while reducing password sharing and unattended workstation risk. \nManufacturing Execution Systems\nSimplify access to supported MES workflows while maintaining individual accountability. \nLaboratories and clean rooms\nProvide phone-free authentication for employees working with gloves\, protective equipment or restricted personal devices. \nControl rooms and operations centers\nEnable fast user transitions while automatically protecting unattended workstations. \nDefense and regulated manufacturing\nImprove access auditing and support security programs aligned with requirements such as CMMC\, NIST and DFARS. \nSee the Complete Workflow\nAt the GateKeeper booth\, you can see how the system helps manufacturers: \n\nAuthenticate an authorized operator.\nProvide fast access to the workstation.\nReduce repeated password entry.\nLock the computer when the operator leaves.\nAuthenticate the next employee under their own identity.\nMaintain a clearer record of workstation access.\n\nBring Us Your Most Difficult Manufacturing Workflow\nTalk with our team if your organization is dealing with: \n\nShared accounts or shared passwords\nSlow shift-change logins\nPhone-based MFA that does not fit the plant floor\nUnattended production workstations\nWeak user attribution on shared terminals\nPassword fatigue among frontline employees\nAuthentication across multiple facilities\nSecurity policies that interfere with production\n\nWe will help map your current workflow and identify where GateKeeper could strengthen access without creating unnecessary operational friction. \nMeet GateKeeper at the Manufacturing IT/OT Summit USA 2027\nMarch 10–11\, 2027Sheraton Boston Hotel | Boston\, Massachusetts

SUMMARY:Identiverse 2027
DESCRIPTION:GateKeeper Proximity Returning to Identiverse 2027: The Global Identity Imperative\nBring identity security to the workstation—and make it faster for the people using it.\nJune 28–July 1\, 2027 | Mandalay Bay | Las Vegas\, NevadaVisit GateKeeper at Booth \nAfter exhibiting at Identiverse 2026\, GateKeeper Proximity is returning in 2027 with an even stronger focus on one of the most overlooked parts of enterprise identity: \nThe moment a real employee sits down at a real workstation.\nModern identity programs protect cloud applications\, directories and privileged accounts. But frontline employees still lose time entering passwords\, completing repeated MFA challenges and switching between shared computers. \nGateKeeper closes that gap. \nOur proximity-based authentication platform helps organizations give employees fast\, secure access to workstations and applications—while automatically protecting computers when users walk away. \nIdentiverse 2027 will bring more than 3\,000 identity professionals together at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas from June 28 through July 1\, 2027.  \nSee Presence-Aware Identity in Action\nVisit the GateKeeper Proximity booth to experience how identity can respond to the person physically using the workstation. \nSee how GateKeeper can help organizations: \n\nAuthenticate users without relying on personal phones\nUnlock computers using proximity tokens\, smart cards or approved credentials\nAutomatically lock unattended workstations\nAccelerate secure user switching on shared computers\nReduce repeated password and MFA interruptions\nExtend secure access into supported web\, SSO\, RDP\, RADIUS and remote-work workflows\nGive IT clearer records of who accessed each workstation\n\nIdentity That Works for the Frontline Workforce\nTraditional IAM tools are often designed around one employee\, one device and one desk. \nThat model breaks down in environments where dozens of employees may use the same computer throughout the day. \nGateKeeper is built for: \nHealthcare teams moving rapidly between shared clinical workstations. \nManufacturing and laboratory employees who cannot stop production to retrieve phones or repeatedly enter credentials. \n911 dispatchers and public-safety personnel who need immediate access to critical systems. \nBank tellers and service teams rotating between shared stations while handling sensitive information. \nEnterprise employees who need stronger security without adding more friction to every login. \nFrom Authentication to Continuous Workstation Protection\nAuthentication should not end when the user signs in. \nGateKeeper can help organizations continuously answer: \n\nWho is using this computer? \n\n\nIs the authorized user still present? \n\n\nWhat should happen when that user walks away? \n\n\nHow quickly can the next authorized employee begin working? \n\nBy connecting authentication with physical presence\, GateKeeper helps organizations secure the entire workstation session—not merely the initial login. \nReturning After Identiverse 2026\nOur experience at Identiverse 2026 reinforced a clear message: identity leaders are looking for ways to improve security without making employees less productive. \nIn 2027\, we are returning to demonstrate how GateKeeper can complement an organization’s existing identity strategy by extending secure authentication to shared computers\, frontline environments and physical workstation access. \nGateKeeper does not force employees to choose between convenience and security. \nIt gives organizations both. \nBring Us Your Hardest Identity Workflow\nDo employees share Windows computers? \nAre users repeatedly entering passwords throughout the day? \nIs phone-based MFA impractical in parts of your organization? \nDo unattended workstations create security or compliance concerns? \nIs it difficult to prove which employee was actually using a shared computer? \nBring the workflow to our team at Identiverse. We will help you map how GateKeeper could fit alongside your current identity infrastructure. \nMeet GateKeeper at Identiverse 2027\nExperience faster authentication\, automatic workstation security and clearer user accountability. \nJune 28–July 1\, 2027Mandalay Bay\, Las Vegas
