MultiFactor Joins Juniper Networks J-Partner Soln Alliance Programme

MultiFactor Corporation, a provider of two-factor authentication, web application security and SSL VPN authentication solutions, has joined the Juniper Networks J-Partner Solution Alliance Programme. MultiFactor’s product SecureAuth integrates seamlessly with the Juniper IVE to provide effective network security with a two-factor authentication system.

The combined Juniper SecureAuth solution is a user self-service enrollment model for secure network access. The simple-to-use click-through interface reduces support calls and administrative overhead traditionally associated with strong dual-factor authentication. SecureAuth is deployed as an appliance in the enterprise network and utilises existing user data-stores, such as Active Directory, removing the need for a separate database for the two-factor authentication solution. SecureAuth eliminates the need for administrative resources to deploy software or hardware tokens, make upgrades or train end-users on complex remote access procedures.

In today’s extended enterprise, ensuring user identity prior to granting network access is a vital component to a comprehensive enterprise security initiative. SecureAuth multi-factor authentication solution offers direct native integration into the Juniper product suite as well as a Juniper SAML offering.

“We are very excited to offer SecureAuth for the Juniper IVE product line,” said Craig Lund, chief executive officer, MultiFactor Corporation. “This partnership provides true certificate strength user authentication in a browser-based solution for only a few dollars per user per year.”
