DetectIT Agent for RSA SecurID
The Challenge
With organizations facing mounting pressure to demonstrate secure and controlled access to sensitive data, it is essential that they enforce a strong access control policy. The relative ease with which the classic combination of username and password can be overcome by hackers, social engineering attacks, and even user ignorance, means that the demand for a more secure means of authentication is ever increasing. These controls need to be added into existing systems and applications without increasing the workload on support, application providers or the end user.
The Solution
Safestone’s Agent for RSA SecurID brings confidence to everyday transactions providing secure access for employees, customers and partners while striking the right balance between risk, cost and convenience. It provides the full functionality of the market leading RSA SecurID two factor authentication solution to users of IBM i on Power Systems (AS/400, iSeries, System i). Two factor authentication is based on something you know (a password or PIN) and something you have (an authenticator). This dramtically increases the level of security provided. Challenges for authentication using the DetectIT Agent for RSA SecurID can be added during initial sign-on via 5250 and when access is attempted using network access points such as FTP. DetectIT Agent for RSA SecurID is a targeted implementation only applying extra controls where required, both minimizing disruption and costs.
Key Benefits
- Protect corporate assets: Through increased security at point of entry using strong two factor authentication ensuring that only those who are truly entitled can access sensitive data.
- Helps to achieve compliance: Adhere with many of today's regulations and standards (Sarbanes-Oxley, PCI DSS, Basel II, ISO27002).
- Risk free implementation: Easy to implement into an existing environment as there is no need for re-development of existing in-house or third party applications.
- Maximise existing SecurID investment: Extend coverage to incorporate IBM i on Power Systems (AS/400, iSeries, System i).
