MultiFactor Corporation's SecureAuth™ for Cisco IPSec VPNs Now Available
HONOLULU, HI April 7, 2008 - MultiFactor Corporation, an innovator in 2-factor authentication, web application security and SSL VPN Authentication solutions today announced the release of SecureAuth™ for Cisco IPSec VPNs, enabling true bilateral authentication with native integration support. “SecureAuth’s unique technology generates certificates for the client without the enterprise having to deploy any certificate infrastructure” stated Garret Grajek, co-founder and COO of MultiFactor Corporation.
SecureAuth, a Cisco certified security offering, works with Cisco’s IPSec Client regardless of how the IPSec connection is terminated; by a Cisco router, firewall or a dedicated Cisco VPN appliance. This allows an efficient low cost method to deploy the strongest 2-factor authentication solution to every user on the network, including non-corporate owned clients. In addition to providing a much higher level of security than previously possible, SecureAuth will automatically provision the IPSec client for certificate authentication, making deployment easy on both the network administrator and the end-user.
“Previously, CIOs had to make very tough choices on the trade-offs of cost, security and ease of use,” said Mark Lambiase, Director of Network products at MultiFactor. “The Cisco VPN product extension will enable millions of VPN users to utilize true multi-factor authentication.”
With this announcement, SecureAuth is immediately deployable for both SSL & IPSec VPN as well as “software as a service” (SaaS) and web applications.
