| One of the greatest
challenges in accepting a Two-Factor Authentication solution
is need for a simple and mobile solution. Users often need to
login to the network from any source they can use. The need
for pre-installed drivers or secure certificate management can
be a burden for an employee using a workstation like an airport
kiosk, where readers or USB ports are often not available. The
vulnerability of using a static password login eliminates this
option. A One-Time Password (OTP) login is a secure choice in
these situations. A One-Time Password is used for exactly
that, one time use. Most of the risks from fixed passwords are
eliminated when the password constantly changes. The Authenex
A-Key® token offers an event generated One-Time Password for
network authentication. The A-Key is equipped with event button
and LCD for users see their 6-digit OTP value that will be used
for authentication.
The A-Key works in conjunction with our Authenex Strong Authentication
System (ASAS™) server and has a battery life beyond 5 years.
Integrating ASAS into an existing network infrastructure and
deploying to users is fast and easy. For consumer level users,
it is a simple process that does not require training or drivers.
The A-Key is multi-functional and offers more security solutions
beyond OTP. The on-board encryption engine on the A-Key utilizes
128-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) to execute operations
for the entire suite of Authenex e-Security applications, including:
- Hard Disk Encryption
- Strong Authentication for VPN, Web and LAN
- Strong Web Access Control
- All-in-One Security Suite
- Secure File Transfer
- Digital Certificate Storage
