CRYPTOCard® - Secure Password Technology
• CRYPTOCard Tokens Overview
CRYPTOCard Tokens are an effective and economical solution for organizations that want to eliminate the risks presented by static, shared, stolen or easily guessed passwords. As with other two-factor authentication systems, protected resources can only be accessed when a user combines their security Personal Identification Number (PIN) (something only they know) with a one-time passcode (newly generated by their unique authenticator for each logon). But that’s where the similarity ends.
Selected by NASA in 1989 and employed by thousands of organizations of all sizes around the globe since then, CRYPTOCard tokens resolve the competing priorities of:
- End-users
who want 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
who must protect systems by enforcing frequent password changes and increased password complexity. With CRYPTOCard, the user’s password changes automatically every time they log on. Security Administrators will find that our extensively configurable tokens provide significant improvements in security, usability and time-in-service over competing token authentication systems;
- Budgets
that impose 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 reduced password management costs. One-time licensing fees, replaceable batteries and an industry leading 5-year warranty are just a few of our qualities that let you control cost and determine the solution’s life-span;
- Flexibility
because every user is different and not all requirements are identical, CRYPTOCard authenticators are available in a wide-range of formats and styles to provide the utmost in convenience, portability, durability, interoperability and multi-role functionality.
