What is V-Key Multi-Factor Authentication?
V-Key Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a cloud-based solution designed to enhance security for various applications, including cloud apps, VPNs, and enterprise systems. It utilizes the V-Key Smart Authenticator, built on the patented V-OS Virtual Secure Element, to verify user identities without the need for hardware tokens, thereby reducing costs and simplifying management.
What are the key benefits of using V-Key MFA?
V-Key MFA provides several benefits, including lower provisioning and management costs due to the absence of hardware tokens, a simple licensing model, and improved user adoption rates. It also allows for customization to align with a company's branding, reduces helpdesk costs, and offers flexible pricing plans without fixed user brackets.
How does V-Key ensure security?
V-Key employs multiple security measures, including the FIPS 140-2 Certified Virtual Secure Element, advanced mobile security protections, and support for various cryptography standards. Additionally, token keys are never stored with untrusted third parties, and features like remote locking and tamper detection further enhance security.
