YesKey security
The challenges faced by many companies’ I.T. networks typically lie in efficiency and security. But far too often security takes a back seat to efficiency as organisations attempt to streamline operations to save money.Access management to your company’s sensitive data, security is paramount. As your organisation grows and becomes more complex, so do the number of identities that your I.T. team must manage. Still, you require an ever-increasing level of control over those identities accessing your company’s sensitive data to protect your organisation.
The vulnerability of static password system
There are six potential points of password leakage during use, transit and maintenance.
What is the YesKey?
With the rapid rise of the Internet and technology development, you will always need to logon to the company’s I.T. system in order to conduct your daily business tasks. This increases the risk of unauthorised access to your information. The YesKey is a new and more securetwo-factor authentication system. It is more flexible and will ensure your assets and information is secure. The YesKey is a dynamic password PIN token which is based on a secure PIN system and an authenticator to prevent identity theft and other security issues.
Why do you need the YesKey?
It is the most reliable and most flexible two-factor authentication system.
It is an affordable security system that will allow you to work away from the office and ensure secure access to your company’s data.
The YesKey is based on the international encryption standard which can support a variety of third-party authentication protocol, multi-token, MAC address authentication, etc. With the YesKey, you can effectively prevent Trojan horse attacks and phishing sites, giving you the peace of mind that your personal information is secure.
This provides secure access to your company’s data both on and off site. It is extremely easy-to-use and very flexible. It can be easily implemented with your existing system and integrated into various types of applications.
Password leakage during use:
1. Stolen by ‘spy-ware’
2. Captured by fake emails/web sites
When using the Internet:
3. Password leakage in transit (during logon)
Password leakage in maintenance:
4. During generation
5. In storage
6. In transit (physical distribution)
So how does it work?
The YesKey token generates a one-time password.
This procedure is one-on-one which enhances the security of the whole certification process. When the user authentication is required, the YesKey token will result in a one-time password to automatically synchronise with the host and verify the user’s identity. Even in the worse case scenario where your user name and password were stolen, non authorised users will not be permitted to log onto your system without the YesKey generated PIN.
This double authentication will ensure better security.
