DigitalPersona, Quest partner for new enterprise solution

Wednesday, June 8, 2011

DigitalPersona has announced a partnership with information technology software developer Quest Software to integrate DigitalPersona Pro with Quest Defender for an authentication solution.

The new product is designed for use by small to medium-sized businesses primarily as a logical access control solution and enables two-factor authentication that includes one time passwords with either biometrics or smart cards.

One of the chief reasons behind the integration of the two solutions is to enable users in the small to medium-sized businesses to forgo the utilization of hardware tokens and separate token applications to access web-based areas such as virtual private networks and Web mail. [end]
