Data Unit offers Two-Factor Authentication services to provide customers added security via an additional means of end-user identification. Our service is based on the Vasco software or Imprivata and the Vasco tokens, ensuring positive identification of users that access corporate resources.

For hardware tokens, Data Unit deploys key fobs. Key fobs are lightweight tokens suited for a variety of environments that authenticate a user's identity, allowing network access to authorized users while locking out hackers. The Securecode key fob token displays a quasi-randomly generated access code that changes every 60 seconds and users login by entering a secret personal identification number (PIN) followed by the current code displayed on the Securcode token. The login process is one simple and quick step, and processing of user credentials is transparent to the user.

Committed to providing the highest level of service, Data Unit, Network Operation Center (NOC) is staffed with a highly trained team of engineers and network experts dedicated to the design, implementation, and maintenance of customers' remote access networks.

Hackers are experts at cracking logins and passwords. A single password provides a low proof of authenticity as anyone who overhears the password, sees the end-user type in the password, or captures the password via keystroke logger software, can use it to login and appear to be the actual end-user. The widespread use of public Wi-Fi hotspots compounds this problem. Security administrators need to ensure that the person attempting to access protected files and/or resources is an authentic user vs. an impostor. Remote users need a secure means to authenticate before being allowed access to corporate resources. Two-Factor Authentication adds a second layer of protection requiring proof of identity making the certainty of authenticity exponentially higher as the password changes every 60 seconds.

Data unit Two-Factor Authentication is designed to strengthen and protect end-users' credentials and access to corporate resources. Delivered across our secure global network, Two-Factor Authentication limits risk for multinational enterprises as it can drastically reduce the incidence of fraud or hackers accessing corporate resources.
