PinSafe Information Security

PinSafe Information Security (User double factor authentication):  

The increasing use of remote access and web-based commerce has increased the need for convenient, cost-effective yet strong, authentication models.  Relying in a single factor of authentication, ie username and password, is no longer appropriate for many applications. 

This has lead to the increasing use of multi-factor authentication; whereby authentication requires to user to know something (eg a password) and possess something (eg some form of authentication token). 

PINsafe’s approach to two factor authentication has the advantage that the user does not need a dedicated authentication token.  Add to this the patented one-time-code extraction algorithm then PINsafe can provide strong, cost-effective authentication solution that is easy to use and to manage.
