Secure SSH: Passwordless, and No User Action

Secure Your SSH Access with MagicEndpoint

MagicEndpoint is revolutionizing secure SSH—organizations and developers authenticate to remote servers by eliminating passwords and manually managed SSH keys. Built on public key cryptography and endpoint-based security, MagicEndpoint ensures continuous authentication with zero user action—enhancing security while improving workflow efficiency.

Why MagicEndpoint for SSH?

Traditional SSH authentication relies on passwords, manually distributed SSH keys, or certificate-based authentication — all of which introduce security risks and operational burdens.  MagicEndpoint transforms SSH authentication by:

  • Eliminating passwords:
    There is no need to remember or manage passwords.
  • Removing need to manage or rotate SSH keys manually:

    Manual key rotation is often neglected, leading to long-lived keys that increase the risk of compromise.
  • Reduced Operational Overhead:

    Managing SSH keys across multiple servers is time-consuming and error-prone.
  • Enhancing security with endpoint-based identity:

    Ties user authentication to an authorized device.
  • Enforcing continuous verification:

    Ensures the user and endpoint remain trusted throughout the session.
  • Improving operational efficiency:

    Reduces administrative overhead while accelerating secure access.

Key Features

Passwordless, Keyless SSH Authentication

MagicEndpoint replaces traditional SSH keys with cryptographic credentials securely stored and managed at the endpoint. Users can authenticate without passwords, key exchanges, or manual approvals.

Seamless Integration with Existing SSH Workflows

Works with any SSH server which is based on OpenSSH v8.5 and above without modifying existing infrastructure. Supports Linux, and Windows environments.

Endpoint-Bound Identity & Continuous Authentication

  • User authentication is bound to their endpoint, preventing credential theft or unauthorized access.
  • Context-aware – Verifies the security posture of the endpoint before granting access.
  • Dynamic – Access is continuously monitored and can be revoked if a security risk is detected.

Endpoint-Bound Identity & Continuous Authentication

MagicEndpoint follows Zero Trust principles, ensuring authentication is:

  • Continuous verification — we provide continuous verification of the user, device, and transaction through our persistent connection between the endpoint and our IdP.
  • Identity First — we provide a unique “user on device in real-time” identity that is cryptographically protected. This ensures that the authentication user on the authentic device is granted access to requested resources.

Passwordless, Keyless SSH Authentication

For organizations, MagicEndpoint integrates with IAM solutions, SIEM tools, and enterprise policy enforcement—allowing centralized control over SSH access policies. We can also act as a delegated IdP to many of these solutions.
