VASCO Data Security, a software security company specialising in authentication products, has launched its multi-application security model.
The strategy is designed to offer enterprise employees and customers secure access to multiple applications with the use of one DIGIPASS hardware or software credential. The unique authentication and signature ID is stored in VASCO’s centralised IDENTIKEY server, which can be expanded to support multiple access points and applications. Support for VASCO’s multiple applications model is available on the market today.
Potential applications to be secured are numerous.
IDENTIKEY allows that remote access via VPN, LAN access, mobile access via handheld devices and webmail of employees are secured with one single DIGIPASS credential.
The IDENTIKEY/ DIGIPASS combination offers that same employee secure access to SaaS and hosted business applications such as CRM, ERP, e-accountancy, social security and many others.
VASCO will bring the multi-application offering to the market as part of its multi-application - multi-platform model. The model is designed to provide customers with a complete offering to effectively secure and expand their business. This means that a fee will be paid for every end user and every business application linked with IDENTIKEY in a pre-defined period. For VASCO, the combination of supporting multiple applications opens the door to offering an authentication and credential sharing platform to the market.
