ATLAS™ Security-as-a-Service: Authentication Management Module

Access to confidential data and systems has become a growing concern for organizations of all sizes as the result of recent data thefts that have showcased the growing insider risk. To combat this threat, many companies have turned to security solutions that provide user authentication, including identity validation, digital certifications, application access control or single sign on.

Industry regulations such as the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) guidelines on internet banking are requiring a greater number of users to utilize two-factor authentication to complete online transactions.

Implementing and Managing Two-Factor Authentication
Two-factor authentication solutions allow enterprises to restrict user access to key systems and data. However, these industry leading solutions require investments by the client in systems and personnel training. Implementation of such systems can be costly and consume significant time and resources.
