ActivCard One

Proven, client independent token-based digital identity solution

activcard one

ActivCard One delivers token-based digital identity for strong authentication to network-based systems, services and applications linked with back-end systems enabled with ActivCard services. Replacing static passwords with strong digital identity is an essential step for achieving e-business security, and ActivCard One delivers this capability in the form of an easy-to-use token. More than 1.5 million people around the globe have made ActivCard digital identity technology an essential component of their e-business systems.

Key Advantages

Increased network security:
ActivCard two-factor-based identity requires users to have the physical token and to know a personal identification number (PIN) before a dynamic password is generated. Risk of unauthorized access is significantly decreased with dynamic passwords - these credentials cannot be shared, reused or stolen for malicious access.

Cost-effective security:
ActivCard One tokens bring an end to constant password maintenance and the IT costs of enforcing policies associated with static passwords. Integrated authentication services allow IT resources to be focused, instead, on the tangible returns linked with connecting people to streamlined Web-based communications and transactions.

Smooth deployment to large numbers of users:
Linked with ActivCard server products, administrators can effectively manage ActivCard One token distribution, user privileges and remotely initialize and resynchronize tokens. ActivCard digital identity technology has been embedded into systems from Axent, Lucent, Novell and other leading network systems, increasing efficiencies by leveraging the existing administration and management systems.

Flexibility geared for the future:
Ideal for mixed computing environments, ActivCard tokens enable digital identity through PCs, UNIX workstations, and network terminals. The same back-end systems that support ActivCard tokens seamlessly support the ActivCard Gold smart card client, delivering a clear migration path to support emerging PKI and digital signature solutions.

Highlights

Patented Technology:
One-time-use dynamic passwords generated on the token with standards-based, three-variable algorithm.

Easy-to-Use:
Users simply type a PIN on the token keypad and press "Enter" to create a secure password for positive digital identity.

Anytime, anywhere connectivity:
ActivCard One is smaller and thinner than other hand-held tokens for mobility and streamlined remote access from any location or network-connected terminal.

Proven scalability:
Supports large-scale digital identity solutions among many major enterprise level deployments is a global Internet banking provider with over 300,000 ActivCard tokens in use.
