SecureLogin Advanced Authentication Version 1.9 for Microsoft Networks Provides Enterprises with Strong Authentication Using Choice of Hardware.
Protocom Development Systems today announced the availability of SecureLogin Advanced Authentication version 1.9 for Microsoft Networks. This authentication solution significantly increases network security in user-to-enterprise, business-to-business and customer-to-business transaction environments via the use of various authentication devices, including smartcards, USB smartkeys, tokens and biometrics.
"With the use of SecureLogin Advanced Authentication 1.9, enterprises are able to implement robust security policies at domain, container, organizational unit and individual user levels," Protocom Chief Executive Officer Jason Hart said.
SecureLogin Advanced Authentication version 1.9 is among the first reliable, device-agnostic network authentication solutions available on the market. It is a highly flexible and scalable solution that enables enterprises to leverage their existing investment in authentication hardware and Active Directory infrastructure
Hart continues, "SecureLogin Advanced Authentication is an essential network security infrastructure component that allows each enterprise to choose the authentication device that best suits its needs. As one of the first reliable solutions to do so, SecureLogin Advanced Authentication not only meets the increasing network security needs of enterprises worldwide, it exceeds them."
This release enhances network security by translating strict security policies into enforceable network authentication regulation. For instance, users may be required to use a fingerprint scan with a smartcard, as well as a password and pin to successfully authenticate their identity. Additionally, SecureLogin Advanced Authentication has been developed with an intuitive user interface that allows enterprises to modify, delete or add to policies at any time, at any level.
SecureLogin Advanced Authentication assists enterprises to meet the emerging scope of national and international laws that legally bind them to secure and monitor network access. It enables enterprises to ensure the security, integrity and accountability of its data.
"SecureLogin Advanced Authentication's cutting-edge technology enables enterprises to respond immediately to a rapidly evolving policy environment, without sacrificing security," Hart said.
SecureLogin Advanced Authentication can be easily deployed and offers comprehensive inherited policy settings, granting enterprises complete control over their authentication infrastructure. For instance, it can be configured with grace periods for device enrollment as well as biometric enrollment practice modes. It also incorporates passphrases as robust backup mechanisms, which ensure that users can access the network in the event of hardware device loss or failure.
SecureLogin Advanced Authentication is a key component in the SecureLogin Suite of identity management and authentication solutions, which also includes SecureLogin Single Sign-On and Self Service Password Reset.
