ActivIdentity: Establishing Trust in Remote Access Transactions

As of October 2010, modern networks are getting more mobile, and attacks are increasing. Stolen credentials are the most common method of breaking into networks. Strong authentication reduces risk, and is getting easier to afford and own. Open standards for hard and soft OTP tokens meet a broad range of business needs. While some legacy tokens automatically expire after 3 years, ActivIdentity tokens last 2 to 3 times as long, dramatically reducing administrative and replacement costs. Innovative strong authentication products from ActivIdentity make migrating from legacy tokens easier, more flexible, and more secure. As laptop and smartphone populations continue to grow, IT executives should consider how best to meet their TCO and business flexibility needs by considering ActivIdentity’s remote access solutions.
