ActivIdentity Tokens

ActivIdentity Tokens

Strong security starts with ensuring that only the proper people have access to protected network resources and applications. ActivIdentity offers a range of solutions for strong authentication, backed by a complete line of one-time password (OTP) token authenticators.

ActivIdentity tokens generate random passwords that can't be reused. Users gain access to resources by possession of the token and knowledge of a secret (a PIN number). The user experience is as simple as using an automatic teller machine, and provides far greater security than a static password.

Key features

Strong Authentication for a variety of requirements

• ActivIdentity Strong Authentication for Remote Access solutions enable support for tokens with VPNs, dial-up networks, web sites, and remote-hosted applications.
• Strong Authentication for Workstation and Network Access solutions enable support for token based authentication with wireless access points and thin clients.
• Strong Authentication for Applications solutions enable OTP with standard and custom applications.

Choice of algorithm

• The ActivIdentity patented 3-variable algorithm is available across the entire token family and provides advanced security for employee authentication and consumers conducting high value transactions.
• ActivIdentity event-only algorithm provides strong security for everyday consumer authentication.
• Standards-based X9.9 Challenge/ Response avoids the problem of out-ofsync tokens for employees.
• OATH algorithm is an OTP open standard, providing compatibility with 3rd party software.

Future proof

• Mix and match different tokens in the same deployment. For example, provide Pocket Token to sales representatives, Keychain Token to engineering, and Desktop Token to executives.
• ActivIdentity algorithms are compatible with the ActivIdentity OTP smart card applet, providing a smooth path to deploy smart cards in the future.
• Add support for any external data source and extend the data stored on the card with the CMS customizable workflow plug-in interfaces.

Benefits

No expiration date

ActivIdentity tokens last longer than other tokens on the market. Durability comes from the token design, power conservation, long battery life, and no self-expiration. Stop repurchasing the same token twice - an ActivIdentity token lasts up to two and a half times longer than a 3 year leased token.

Lower operating costs

Re-provisioning an expired token is expensive and inconvenient, and incurs replacement acquisition costs, user down time, and delivering a new unit to the user. ActivIdentity tokens last longer and can reduce re-provisioning costs.

Flexible to meet requirements

With a range of algorithms, form factors, and designs to choose from, customers can choose the right tokens for their diverse user population. Mix and match tokens as needed to get the perfect fit.

User satisfaction

Nobody likes security that is hard to use. That's why ActivIdentity tokens are designed with the user in mind. Consumers appreciate the intuitive one-button design of Mini Token. Employees like being able to set their own easy-to-remember PIN number on tokens with keypads.
