| Security with secure hardware |
ControlSphere secures user data, protects privacy and eliminates the need of remembering and typing any passwords. The solution integrates common authentication and data storage procedures on a PC and substitutes them with strong two-factor authentication (with smartcards or USB tokens) making itself a central security and SSO point.
ControlSphere keeps sensitive user data protected on secure hardware devices. These are smartcards and javacards : traditional card-sized or USB token devices. Today security devices are certified by a number of government and security organizations according to either FIPS or ITSEC standards - they are resistant against hacking and will self-lock or self-destroy in case of unauthorized access attempt.
The idea of ControlSphere is simple - it is enough to have a secure device as sensitive data storage and know the device PIN to access and automatically use the data without the need of manual operations. ControlSphere authenticates user to Windows and network, as well as to all Windows programs and WEB sites by automatically delivering on-device passwords to requesting fields. Encryption technology of ControlSphere helps keeping user data safe and protected. |
