JumpCloud Directory Platform

JumpCloud Directory Platform is a cloud-native open directory and identity and access management (IAM) platform that unifies user identity management, single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), and cross-OS mobile device management (MDM) within a single cloud architecture. Serving as an open, cloud-delivered alternative to legacy Microsoft Active Directory, JumpCloud enables IT administrators to manage employee identities and device access across Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android endpoints without requiring on-premises domain controllers, VPNs, or complex server infrastructure. The platform supports standard open protocols including SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect (OIDC), SCIM, LDAP, and RADIUS, providing secure single sign-on access to thousands of cloud applications, legacy databases, on-premises file servers, and corporate Wi-Fi/VPN networks. JumpCloud delivers robust device governance capabilities, enabling administrators to deploy automated configuration policies, enforce full-disk encryption (BitLocker and FileVault), manage operating system patch updates, and execute remote lock or wipe commands on lost devices. By consolidating IAM, directory services, and endpoint management into a unified platform, JumpCloud simplifies IT administration, enforces zero-trust access controls, and secures distributed modern workforces.
