Multi Factor Authentication from Action Identity
Multi factor authentication is just one of the many services provided by Action Identity relating to identity and access management. Often referred to as 2 factor authentication or strong authentication, the process involves verifying the identity of a user by requiring him or her to provide multiple forms of unique information. A factor can be what a user uniquely knows (password), what a user uniquely has (ID card), or what a user uniquely is (fingerprint). From logging on to a computer at work to withdrawing money from an ATM, properly authenticating the identity of a user is fundamental to keeping information safe. At Action Identity, we help large-scale enterprises such as banks, colleges and universities, and e-commerce sites make their data more secure through factor authentication and other identity and access management technologies including user provisioning, role management and more. Our biggest strength is our ability to custom design solutions that are both robust and cost-effective, so whether your organization has a couple thousand users or as many as 150,000, complete data security is within reach when you choose Action Identity.
When it comes to factor authentication, Action Identity uses only best-of-breed software developed by respected industry leaders. These include:
Data is the lifeblood of the modern economy. However, it can be exploited for all the wrong reasons if security measures - such as factor authentication - are not put in place. In addition to leaving your organization vulnerable to leaks of sensitive information, lax security may violate HIPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley, Gramm-Leach-Bliley, or other federal data-security mandates.
