TecMFA is a partner add-on available through ZeroTek, a platform for MSPs. ZeroTek offers it to MSPs, MSSPs, and IT service providers on a month-to-month, per-user basis to deploy for their clients.
TecZERO enables fully passwordless Windows desktop login, authenticating users with the factors required by their Okta policy instead of a password — removing passwords as an attack surface.
Comparing desktop authentication options?
TecMFA, TecZERO, and Okta Device Access (ODA) all bring Okta-backed authentication to desktop login — but they solve the problem in different ways, at different price points. Which one fits depends on the customer's environment and your strategy. Read the full side-by-side comparison before you decide. You can also read more about how TecZERO works.
Example scenarios
A security-forward customer wants to eliminate passwords from desktop login entirely as part of a Zero Trust strategy.
A customer in a regulated industry (such as healthcare or finance) needs strong data protection and has decided to go fully passwordless at the desktop.
A customer keeps getting hit by credential-theft attacks tied to reused or phished passwords.
Key use cases
Fully passwordless Windows desktop login
Okta factor-sequencing authentication at the desktop
Eliminating passwords as an attack surface
Extending a passwordless Okta strategy to the endpoint
Online and offline passwordless authentication
Protection against keyloggers and plaintext-password harvesting
When to use
The customer wants to go fully passwordless at the desktop
Eliminating password-based attack surface is a security priority
The customer is pursuing a Zero Trust or passwordless-first strategy
The customer is comfortable removing passwords from the desktop login flow entirely
Cost-effectiveness matters and Okta FastPass to the desktop isn't required
Why it wins
True passwordless desktop login built on Okta's factor-sequencing framework
Removes passwords as a credential-theft target
Supports a broad set of online and offline factors (Okta Verify, FIDO2, security keys, hardware tokens, and more)
Cost-effective at $1 per user / month
Extends an existing Okta passwordless strategy to the desktop
Before you sell
TecZERO is passwordless-only — it requires non-password factors. Customers who still need passwords as part of the login flow should use TecMFA instead.
TecZERO does not extend Okta FastPass to the desktop — if continuous FastPass-to-desktop is the goal, Okta Device Access is the fit.
The customer should already have, or be ready to adopt, an Okta factor-sequencing / passwordless authentication policy.
Not the right fit for customers who require passwords, or customers who specifically need Okta FastPass at the desktop.
