What is SecurePass?

eMudhra’s converged IAM platform — authentication + access management + identity governance in one, from a PKI/trust leader.

Passwords & fragmented tools vs converged IAM — the honest table

Under the hood

The five pieces of the platform

Vendors love diagrams; buyers need to know what they’re actually operating. Here’s the whole platform, demystified.

01
The gate

Authenticate

Verify who users are

MFA, passwordless and certificate-based authentication, drawing on eMudhra’s PKI heritage, verify users and counter credential-based attacks.

02
The access

Access & SSO

Control what they reach

Single sign-on gives users one login to their applications, while the organisation centrally controls who can access what, with adaptive, risk-based decisions.

03
The governance

Govern

Manage identities & rights

Identity governance handles joiner-mover-leaver lifecycle, roles, access requests, approvals and periodic reviews, so people keep only the access they need.

04
The unification

Converged

One platform

Authentication, access management and identity governance converge in one platform rather than separate tools, cutting complexity and gaps.

05
The foundation

Trust-Backed

PKI & CA heritage

Built by a PKI and CA specialist, eMudhra, so its authentication can be certificate-based and grounded in real trust expertise.

A single identity fabric spans all apps, so access is governed as well as granted.

Part 03 · Evaluate

Twelve capabilities. Authenticate, access, govern.

SecurePass converges authentication, access and governance — securing the identity perimeter with strong, PKI-backed auth — the identity layer of the eMudhra portfolio.

Authenticate
MFA

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

Requires multiple factors, so a stolen password alone can’t grant access, countering credential-based attacks.

Authenticate
Passwordless

Passwordless Authentication

Supports passwordless login via biometrics, devices or certificates, removing passwords for stronger security and smoother use.

Authenticate
Certificate-based

Certificate-Based Authentication (PKI)

Uses eMudhra’s PKI heritage for certificate-based authentication, the strong cryptographic option for high-assurance access.

Authenticate
Adaptive

Adaptive / Risk-Based Access

Adjusts authentication by risk and context (who, where, what), stepping up only when risk is higher.

Access
SSO

Single Sign-On (SSO)

One login for all of a user’s applications, centralising access control and reducing password sprawl.

Access
Access management

Centralised Access Management

Controls centrally who can access which applications and resources, consistently, not app by app.

Access
App integration

Application Integration

Connects cloud, on-prem and SaaS applications via SAML, OIDC and other standards, under unified identity control.

Govern
Lifecycle

Identity Lifecycle Management

Automates joiner, mover and leaver changes, provisioning and removing access so it always matches current status.

Govern
Roles & access

Roles & Access Governance

Roles, access requests, approvals and periodic reviews keep access right for each role and remove excess access.

Govern
Compliance

Compliance & Audit

Governed access, access reviews and audit trails provide evidence for DPDP and other access-control requirements.

Govern
Converged

Converged, Not Fragmented

Authentication, access and governance in one platform, instead of separate MFA, SSO and IGA tools.

Why SecurePass

Passwords are the breach. Own the identity layer.

Here’s what genuinely sets eMudhra SecurePass apart.

01

Identity is the security perimeter — so managing it well is critical

Most breaches now involve stolen credentials: attackers log in rather than hack in, and with cloud and remote work, identity is the perimeter. SecurePass combines strong authentication (MFA, passwordless, certificates), SSO and access management, and identity governance to control who gets in and what they reach.

02

Converged IAM — authentication, access and governance in one, not separate tools

IAM is usually split across separate MFA, SSO and identity governance (IGA) products from different vendors, adding cost, integration work and gaps. SecurePass converges authentication, access management and governance in one platform with one console, so they stay aligned.

03

IAM from a PKI/trust leader — distinctively strong authentication

Certificate-based authentication is among the strongest, phishing-resistant ways to prove identity, and building it well takes PKI expertise. eMudhra is a licensed Certifying Authority, so SecurePass offers certificate-based authentication natively, alongside MFA and passwordless, for high-assurance access.

04

The full identity lifecycle governed — right access, only right access

Without governance, access accumulates: people keep rights from old roles and leavers leave orphaned accounts. SecurePass provisions access by role when people join, adjusts it when they move, removes it when they leave, and runs periodic access reviews, supporting DPDP compliance with evidence.

05

From a trusted, listed identity leader — with the broader platform

eMudhra, founded 2008 in Bengaluru, is an NSE/BSE-listed, licensed CA serving 50+ countries. IAM controls access to everything, so its trust pedigree matters. SecurePass shares PKI with DSCs, emSigner, CertiNext and emCA, so one provider can cover identity, signing, certificates and PKI.

06

The honest scope

SecurePass, the evolution of emAS, converges authentication, access and governance. Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Ping, CyberArk and SailPoint have larger ecosystems and more integrations. SecurePass stands out for certificate-based authentication, convergence and India origin; for the largest ecosystem, Okta and Entra lead.
