Features

This product provides users with SSO and administrators with a centralized way of managing the applications and resources that a user can access. It uses a centralized Policy Server and security plug-ins on user workstations and it authenticates users at first login with a choice, or combination, of password, Radius, token, certificate, smartcard or biometric authentication methods.

eTrust Single Sign-On is for the enterprise market and has three components – Policy Server, workstation client, and Policy Manager.

SecureLogin provides SSO across all the applications that a corporation might be running – mainframe, web-based, Windows 32-bit and UNIX. It also works with terminal emulators and in Citrix environments, and integrates with two-factor authentication systems based on smartcards, tokens or biometrics.

The Digipass pack product from Vasco is perhaps less of a product in the accepted sense and more of a security philosophy – the philosophy in question being that of dynamic, one-time password creation using portable tokens.

The ECHOsystem from Fizians Inc. is certainly different. It uses audio to transmit the equivalent of a dynamic password across the network for user authentication purposes.

Entrust is known for its expertise in managing and securing digital identities, and the Entrust USB token is a two-factor authentication product worthy of the company's reputation. The token is based upon the Rainbow Technologies iKey 2032 device, a proven product.

Trinity is designed to allow enterprises to protect sign-on with smartcards, fingerprint biometrics, hardware tokens, passwords, or a combination of these methods.

Not strictly a single sign-on (SSO) product,Vintela Authentication is designed to provide a more cost-effective solution than SSOs to the problem of users having different login credentials to Windows and UNIX resources.

SmoothWall Corporate Server enables non-technical users to build a dedicated firewall to connect a network of computers to the internet. This software solution is designed to be cost-effective, because almost any Pentium-class PC can be used as the dedicated hardware platform. This firewall has been developed to meet the internet security needs of small to medium-sized organizations, corporate branch offices, and individuals with demanding security needs.

For anyone connecting to the internet, security has long been an issue. However, for many small businesses, the cost of security has also been a big issue and a heavy burden because the cost of security has often outweighed its benefits.
