**Modern identity security shouldn’t stop at the cloud.**

This solution brief introduces how Silverfort bridges Beyond Identity’s cloud-native security platform to protect your legacy and on-prem systems without the need to modernize every app. Whether it’s legacy servers, command-line tools, or IT infrastructure, Silverfort makes it possible to apply Beyond Identity’s access controls, [MFA](https://www.silverfort.com/glossary/multi-factor-authentication-mfa/ "Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)"), and SSO flows to all your resources.

Acting as a SAML Service Provider (SP), Silverfort converts legacy [authentication](https://www.silverfort.com/glossary/user-authentication/ "User Authentication") protocols (Kerberos, NTLM, LDAPS) into secure, policy-driven access flows managed by Beyond Identity. The result? Unified [identity protection](https://www.silverfort.com/glossary/identity-protection/ "Identity Protection") across hybrid environments, reduced lateral movement risk, and seamless user experiences.

#### In this solution brief, you’ll learn how to:

-   **Bridge on-prem apps into Beyond Identity** using Silverfort’s dynamic integration to enable web SSO and policy enforcement.
-   **Apply Beyond Identity MFA and access policies** to systems that couldn’t be secured before, like file shares, command-line tools, and legacy applications.
-   **[Prevent lateral movement](https://www.silverfort.com/use-cases/lateral-movement-protection/ "OLD USE CASE: Lateral Movement Prevention") attacks** with fine-grained control and consistent security across cloud and on-prem access points.
