SyferLock, One Time Passwords, and Multi-Factor Authentication

SyferLock Announces 3.0! Featuring Self-service 2 Factor Authentication (2FA) Through SyferLock’s AutoToken™ Technology & GridKey™

SyferLock now offers deployments and their users the ability to self-service 2FA through its AutoToken™ technology.  GridKey™ is a 2FA feature that allows the user the option to bolster their authentication with an additional layer of security - by sending a one time password (OTP) to either an email account or phone via SMS text message.

Competitively unique to SyferLock is that the GridKey™ will only be generated and delivered AFTER the user applies and completes a deviceless “multi-token” OTP authentication process at their initial login - creating unparalleled secure access. The SyferLock system leverages the user’s existing password and it is securely entered as an OTP through SyferLock’s patented methodology and security grid UI.


SyferLock Announces New Integration with SAML

GridGuard™ and SAML Integration.... Own Your Own Identity!

SyferLock’s GridGuard Servers integration with SAML now provides Internet Single-Sign On (SSO) through a federated identity management system.  Organizations are faced with securing a growing number of access points, including internal and external Software as a Service (SaaS) applications. The challenge is to provide the highest level of security while keeping costs in perspective. With the GridGuard solution, employees will only need to remember one password instead of multiple passwords for each of their applications, and their credentials will be protected by the enhanced security of the GridGuard technology.  The GridGuard server is installed in your company’s network and processes all logins into any supported application(s) – SalesForce.com, CentralDesktop, Google Apps and more. The user’s ID and password are never passed to the SaaS application nor outside your network.  Therefore, the employees own their identity!

Contact SyferLock today for more information or to deploy the solution as part of your organization's security initiatives.


Utilizing SyferLock’s Approach to Achieve Greater Password Security
and Enhanced Authentication

SyferLock Technology's Grid Data Security solution is the simplest, most secure deviceless one-time password system offered to computer users today.  Users can log in from any computer anywhere, and are still afforded the security and protection of one-time passwords.  Security is achieved without tokens, cell phones, print materials, or other devices.

SyferLock's patented approach and methodology offers increasing levels of security through the use of Decoy Digits™ and additional manipulation of the system (GridAdvanced™).  So even when an attacker can capture ALL of the information during a login attempt, it is still unlikely that he will be able to obtain the user's credentials.  Contact SyferLock for an expanded online demonstration that covers these features.

SyferLock Technology Corporation has released a family of patented products that offers a paradigm shifting approach to passwords and access to computers, networks and the Internet.

Historically, reusable passwords are the weakest authentication method, but remain the most commonly used type of authentication on enterprise networks as well as on the Internet. One Time Passwords (OTPs) are impervious to attacks perpetrated on reusable password systems.

SyferLock Technology Corporation has engineered a secure, authentication system providing device-less, One Time Passwords allowing Users to have a simpler, more secure way to access information.

Utilizing SyferLock’s Approach to Cross and Cover the Authentication Spectrum

 

 

 

- Weak and vulnerable against the most prevalent and easily executed attacks

- Attempts to make them “limited time passwords” i.e. expire every 30,60,90 days add no real strength to the threat matrix, but add a real Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) burden to users and organizations

- Passwords are the most pervasive form of authentication for the majority of users

 

 

 

 

 

 

- Increased strength from One Time Password generation and “having something”

- Physicality and the very nature of the “something you have” unfortunately create real limitations

- Heavy Burden on Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)

- Limited deployment – due to budget constraints and/or mandated/ suggested deployment - e.g. SOX, to only users deemed absolutely necessary to have greater security

- No secure, un-intrusive “plan B” for lost, stolen or broken devices

It is this large part of the authentication spectrum that SyferLock’s unique approach and methodology addresses. SyferLock delivers proven, effective security through One Time Passwords or PINs, while allowing IT security a viable alternative for greater information access control.

- Utilizes a user’s existing password and organization’s database store

- Absolute ZERO footprint and device-less in nature

- Lower TCO and lightweight aspects, allow for complete user coverage

- Bolsters and works in conjunction with other factors and security measures

- SyferLock’s OTP system eliminates or mitigates the following attacks:

* Key loggers
* Replay attacks
* Shoulder surfing
* Stored browser passwords
* Brute force attacks
* Dictionary attacks
* Password sniffing and interception

The implementation of the Grid Data Security system, and its use of GridPasses™ and GridCodes™, allows organizations to reduce or eliminate the threats and risks currently plaguing users of reusable passwords. These critical security benefits are delivered with absolutely NO additional user hardware or software.  ANYWHERE, ANY MACHINE, MORE SECURELY™.
 

GridOne™ Reduces or Eliminates the Following Threats

Key-logging Key-Logging Key-logging Automated Attacks Key-logging Sniffing
Key-logging Replay Key-logging Brute force Key-logging Interception
Key-logging Shoulder surfing Key-logging Dictionary Key-logging Stored Browser Passwords


In addition to this threat and risk mitigation, SyferLock’s One Time Password Approach helps address U.S. and international authentication regulations and guidelines such as PCI DDS, FFIEC, SOX, GLB, HIPAA, FISMA, PIPEDA, 21 CFR Part 11, Annex 11, BASEL II, European and Japanese Data Protection Directives.
