SecurAccess Two Factor AuthenticationThe future of authentication

for the modern business

No tokens, no fuss… Just rock-solid, two factor security on the move. Changing the game for business security.

convenient two-factor authentication

nEnhanced security nReduced helpdesk costsnNo password reset or PIN

deployment, renewal or replacement costs

nNo need to carry additional devices

nNo software required on the mobile phone

nNo delays waiting for a passcode

nPasscode always available even if temporarily out of Communication

Today’s organisations need watertight security, particularly now that ‘cloud computing’ has empowered users to access data any time, from anywhere. However, they also need cost savings, optimum productivity and a renewed focus on environmental action. Our solutions give control back to businesses and users without compromising on security or access.

Unlike traditional authentication solutions, working with SecurEnvoy allows us to quickly install and integrate into existing IT systems. Crucially, we avoid the need for much of the additional cost or remote deployment of the traditional approach to security software, creating an unprecedented zero-footprint solution while ensuring long-term cost benefits.

Deployment or Fully Managed Hosted Service?

We can deploy Two Factor Authentication on premise or as a fully managed hosted service. The benefit of a fully managed service, is that it eliminates the time, effort and management overhead required, allowing organisations to maximize operational efficiencies, manage capital expenditure and release hardware, reducing the burden of administrative and resource intensive services. Whichever approach you take, we will work with you to manage any risks and maximise rewards, making sure that control of your sensitive data is retained.

What do we do?Our solutions are based on SecurAccess from SecurEnvoy which turns any mobile phone that can receive SMS into a ready-made authentication device. This pioneering zero-footprint solution cuts costs by using hardware that is already in circulation. Unlike traditional tokens that take months to deploy and replace, SecurAccess can roll out more than 15,000 new remote staff per hour without the pain, cost or environmental impact created by legacy hardware distribution.

How does this integrate with my existing systems?The solution fully integrates into Microsoft Active Directory, Novell eDirectory, Sun Directory Server and OpenLDAP. Integration is simple as it requires no additional databases or hardware – not to mention their associated cost. SecurAccess also integrates with all leading remote access servers and web services including Microsoft OWA, Citrix, Juniper and Cisco. There’s also no need for extra software, eliminating costly and time-consuming testing and training schemes. SecurEnvoy has been designed to respond to the constant changes in mobile technology to ensure a competitive ROI.

What about network coverage or SMS delivery delays?SecurAccess is fundamentally designed to let you:• Pre-load one-time passcodes• Reuse session passcodes that change daily or after multiple days• Request temporary passcodes through self-help website• Obtain passcodes via email if necessary

Why do we partner with SecurEnvoy?SecurEnvoy are the inventors of SMS based tokenless two factor authentication and have been leading the way in the development of this next generation of authentication technology since 2000. A global leader

in business authentication, SecurEnvoy are a UK based company, privately owned with products distributed across the world.

Can two factor authentication be provided as a service?Yes. We offer a range of services from on-site deployment to a fully managed, comprehensive hosted service. Where organisations cannot justify expenditure on skills and infrastructure to deploy an on-site two factor authentication solution, or where their internal IT teams are already over burdened, our hosted SecurAccess Managed Service is the ideal solution to meet your business and security requirements.

Two factor authentication is a specialised area and we have invested in specialist, trained and dedicated engineers that not only fully understand user authentication solutions, but also how to deliver a quality service, following industry best practice standards.

How resilient and flexible is the service?Our Hosted SecurAccess Managed Service is delivered via our secure Tier 3+ Data Centre, which utilises the ‘best of breed’ Technology as a Service infrastructure. This allows organisations to benefit from a highly scalable, highly available, resilient platform for delivery of authentication services. The infrastructure is monitored and supported 24x7x365 resulting in performance and availability that is truly enterprise class.

Our service allows an organisations user base to be fully administered by SCC, or alternatively in-house via a secure web portal. This gives businesses the additional flexibility to deliver the service deemed most appropriate to their uses and to take advantage of a true cloud service. Our flexible infrastructure ensures that large numbers of users can be brought on board quickly and with confidence.
