Strong authentication and positive identification for trusted connections
What is strong authentication?
Strong authentication refers to systems that require multiple factors for authentication and use advanced technology, such as dynamic passcodes or digital certificates, to verify a user's identity.
A common example of multi-factor 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 authentication item--a password!
Dynamic passcodes for strong authentication
Most of the vulnerabilities of passwords (sniffing, guessing, hacking, etc.) would be eliminated if you constantly changed your passwords. Secure SafeWord authentication products and Secure SafeWord tokens allow you to do just that--change your password every time you log in!
