| LETIX Selects Comodo Comodo announces that LETIX has selected Comodo to protect, secure and authenticate access to its database that houses sensitive financial information. LETIX, a not-for-profit organization supporting law enforcement's need for real time fraud data, will benefit from advanced authentication technologies that will ensure only authorized access to this sensitive information. Comodo's Mutual Authentication Solution is based on strong Public Key Infrastructure and includes Two Factor client certificates for LETIX authentication of the User and Content Verification Certificates to enable the User to verify the authenticity of the LETIX login box. Together, this provides the only PKI based solution that is both secure and user-friendly. Comodo Mutual Authentication Solution summary: 1) Two Factor (TF) Client Certificates for a High-Performance, Low Cost Solution with Easy Integration - The Comodo Two Factor solution provides the ability for LETIX to authenticate the identity of a user trying to log in. Comodo TF installs a digital certificate onto a subscriber's PC, converting the PC into a "smart token". Comodo TF offers significant advantages over other two-factor options: - Comodo is one of the only PKI based two factor solutions offered by a Certification Authority. PKI is considered one of the strongest forms of authentication available for online security. - One of the lowest costing two factor solutions due to an established PKI infrastructure and digital certificate lifecycle management processes. - High level of flexibility and configurability. - Solutions can be deployed in days. 2) Content Verification Certificates ensure subscribers can be protected from phishing, pharming, and man-in-the-middle attacks - The second part of the mutual authentication model includes Comodo's unique Content Verification Certificates that authenticates web content (such as a log-in box or graphics) to authenticate site identity. This is the only digital certificate on the market today that protects against man-in-the middle attacks as this solution alone delivers green "good to go" indicator confirming site identity. LETIX subscribers will be able to verify LETIX's site identity using a reader called VerificationEngine which can be used to authenticate the identity of over 200,000 home page logos. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Computing News :: home page |
