Strong authentication and positive identification for trusted connections
What is strong user authentication?
Strong authentication refers to systems that require multiple factors for user authentication and use advanced technology, such as dynamic passcodes or digital certificates, to verify a user's identity.
A common example of multi-factor user authentication is your ATM card or bank card. This requires something you have (your card), and something you know (your PIN). You wouldn't want your bank to allow access to your account with just one factor. Yet many of your valuable network resources can be accessed with one weak user authentication item--a password!
Dynamic passcodes for strong user authentication
Most of the vulnerabilities of passwords (sniffing, guessing, hacking, etc.) would be eliminated if you constantly changed your passwords. SafeWord® user authentication products and SafeWord tokens allow you to do just that--change your password every time you log in!
SafeWord® PremierAccess® is available with many different user authentication options to choose from: tokens, smart cards, biometrics, mobile device authentication, and more.
