Secure remote access solution

Challenges and opportunitites

Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) and remote access systems enable a high level of security for end-to-end network connections but provide limited client-side security. User name/password authentication to the client can result in a major security breach if the credentials are hacked or stolen. The secure connection is ineffective if one of the end points is attacked and the entire network and information assets are at risk.

 

Overview

  

Benefits
To protect against these risks, security can be enhanced by incorporating a strong two-factor authentication system. Gemalto secure remote access solutions protect remote network connections with smart card-based strong authentication using either Java Card or Gemalto .NET technologies. These solutions support one-time password and PKI certificate authentication with a range of compatible form factors for different use cases.  
  • Enhanced security for logon, remote access, and sensitive information. Identity credentials stored on the smart card device are more portable and safer than those stored on a PC
  • Convenient for mobile users who access corporate applications and sensitive data through the Web or a VPN
  • Integration with 3rd party technologies makes these solutions easy to deploy and support
  • Helps ensure compliance with state and federal laws that mandate or recommend the use of strong authentication
  • Reduced password support costs and risks and costs associated with data breach
