HP with M365: Your office on your printer

Introducing HP Authentication Suite – a passwordless, phishing-resistant authentication solution for HP multi-function printers with a collection of Microsoft 365,  productivity apps.

 The HP Authentication Manager handles the single sign-on process with Microsoft Entra (Azure Active Directory).  The user is then authorized to access their Microsoft 365 email and storage to securely print-to and scan-from:

  • Mailflow for Outlook mail access,

  • OneDrive and SharePoint for secure scanning and printing from the M365 cloud, and

  • Universal Print to enable users to access their convenient, driverless and secure print jobs directly from the device.

     

The HP Authentication Suite is built on cyber security and identity management best practices, and delivers modern authentication through an app on the user’s phone and one on the printer:

  • HP Authentication Manager, running on the HP multi-function printer, and

  • HP Secure Authentication, running on the user’s Apple or Android mobile phone and linked to Microsoft Authenticator. 

The HP Authentication Manager leverages Microsoft Entra (Azure Active Directory) to facilitate a modern, Multi-factor Authentication flow, relieving end-users of the burden of entering passwords at the device, actively preventing phishing and empowering administrators in securing their cloud-enabled network printers with the familiar tools they manage other, critical internet-facing endpoints.

The HP Authentication Suite is available now for all customers with Microsoft 365 who are looking to secure their network endpoints and enhance productivity: conveniently and without compromise.
