Reviews of Banyan Security
Mandatory app for corporate employees
Comments: The right application to control users and enforce the use of corporate applications.
Pros:
Simple authentication via SSO. Ease to use - Banyan works in the background and alerts me if I don't have any security features running or updated on my computer.
Cons:
But for me - the user, it is annoying that the session expires every 24 hours. Sometimes Banyan just ties my hands and do some mistakes/bugs when loading (business) web pages.

Hi Viktor, Banyan Security allows administrators the ability to control the session expiry duration. Some organizations require an end-user to authenticate every 24 hours. Some organizations may opt for a change every 5 business days. We provide administrators the flexibility to choose that duration based on their organization's requirements. I have included a link to change that setting for your Admin. https://docs.banyansecurity.io/docs/feature-guides/administer-security-policies/manage-tokens-certs/#authentication-tokens-and-certificates

Banyan ZTNA
Comments: Overall my experience has been a good one. The Banyan team was always there to help when needed and helped to explain things and run through the setup until we were good to go.
Pros:
Easy to use, and allows for very granular access to systems and services.
Cons:
The administration side needs a bit of polish for setup and configuration. Not as intuitive and it can be.
