CRYPTO-Server

Protect Your Network. VPN, LAN, WWW – Access Secured!
CRYPTO-Server on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X is the two-factor authentication solution that helps enterprises eliminates the use of static passwords, whether working remotely or inside the firewall, thus ensuring that valuable network resources are accessible only by authorized users. It is the only option with native solutions for Mac OS X (Panther/Tiger), Linux (RedHat, SuSE), and Windows, enabling users on any platform to implement a complete solution for logon to desktop, LAN, VPN, and the Web.
CRYPTO-Server simplified and consistent user logon mechanism virtually eliminates help-desk calls related to password management, while also helping organizations comply with regulatory requirements. Instead of a user being forced to remember complex passwords, a new complex password is automatically generated for the user for each logon. Nothing could be easier, more secure, or more economical. And with heterogeneous networks becoming the norm, CRYPTO-Server delivers the most flexible solution to manage authentication at every network access point. It supports Apache and IIS Web servers, a range of VPN choices, and even allows Mac and Linux clients to authenticate within a Windows domain. CRYPTO-Server protects the networked assets of some of the world's most important and, consequently, most targeted government, research, financial, and commercial institutions against malicious, unauthorized, or accidental access.
CRYPTO-Server Key Benefits:

• End users: get simplicity and fewer passwords. With CRYPTOCard, users only need two things: their token and their security PIN. There are never any passwords to remember or change.

• Security administrators: do not need to enforce frequent password changes and increased password complexity. With CRYPTOCard, the user’s password changes automatically every time they log on. Security Administrators enjoy improvements in security, usability, and time-in-service over competing token authentication systems.

• Budgets: do not suffer from trade-offs between programs, technology, and staff. With CRYPTOCard, your solution is often paid for in months through reduced demand on staff, help-desks, and password management costs.

• Flexibility: because every user is different and not all requirements are identical. CRYPTOCard tokens provide the utmost in convenience, portability, durability, interoperability, and multi-role functionality.

  PIN Pad and key-chain tokens are highly configurable, multi-function devices. They are ideal for users who need the ability to log on from any computer running any operating system, in any location, or generate digital signatures for Web-based forms.
   

   

  Smart Card and USB tokens combine the distribution advantages of software tokens provide unparalleled convenience. These tokens are computer-environment-independent and can be used to generate digital signatures and as repositories for digital certificates.
  Smart Cards can also be used for physical security by integrating door lock systems and incorporating photo ID or other branding/identification data on the card.
   

   

   

  

  Software tokens are ideal for widely distributed user populations that always use the same PC to logon to the network. They are also used on PDA devices. Software tokens can be electronically distributed with the click of a mouse, eliminating the distribution costs and time required by hardware tokens. They also permit a high degree of integration with many applications.
