Overview
In an effort to address issues of security around authentication and protection of user information, enterprise organisations are looking to implement two-factor authentication solutions. Some key considerations for such solutions are:
- Cost (acquisition, deployment and operation)
- Security
- Functionality
Challenge
The challenge of a large enterprise organisation is to provide a multi-factor authentication solution with the following requirements:
- The multi-factor authentication system should be simple to deploy and integrate with
- Provide a solution allowing many divisions to manage their own operations
- Capable of supporting multiple form factors assigned to different information and document access levels

Benefits |
|
Multi-Organisation Support
|
ActiveAccess is designed to manage a single organisation, multiple organisations or organisations with multiple divisions. In the case where an organisation has operations across many countries, each country could manage their own operations independently whilst maintaining one call center to service the entire organisation.
|
|
Multiple Vendor Devices
|
ActiveAccess supports a number of vendor devices allowing organisations to choose which vendor device best suites their needs. In the case, each country could purchase the vendor device which most suites their needs and their budget.
|
|
Multiple Form Factors
|
Organisations can choose from a wide range of authentication form factors such as software, TAN lists, one-time password devices, mobile phone applet and SMS, chip cards and biometric devices. The system can facilitate user authentication using devices with greater security as the confidentiality of documents increases.

Easy Integration
|
To reduce the cost associated with deployment of a multi-factor authentication system, GPayments ActiveDevice Plug-In reduces the time and associated cost of integration. For the enterprise, this application simplifies the integration effort with existing legacy systems.
