GlobalWare Solutions Delivers New Security Token Program
Share:
HAVERHILL, Mass., June 19, 2006 -- GlobalWare Solutions, a
full-service provider of supply chain management solutions
with operations in North America, Europe and Asia, has
developed a new state-of-the-art end-to-end order processing
and delivery program, Security Token Program, for the
rapidly emerging security tokens (2FA - Second Factor
Authentication) standard.
As Internet identity theft schemes, such as phishing,
pharming, spyware and malware, continue to rise at an
alarming rate, a user name and password (single factor
authentication) is not sufficient protection. GlobalWare's
Security Token Program provides a higher level of security
and additional peace of mind to organizations and their
customers by offering a physical token, as well as a user
name and password, to fully verify user access.
Retailers who transact over the Internet are concerned with
preventing online fraud and identity theft and as a result,
are implementing security tokens for their e-commerce
business. Financial and banking institutions are using
security tokens to address Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
(FDIC) security guidelines outlined in the FDIC December
2005 report "Putting an End to Account-Hijacking Identity
Theft." The report strongly advises financial institutions
to "upgrade existing password-based, single-factor customer
authentication systems to two-factor authentication." The
report further advises that the FDIC is considering a
federal mandate for the implementation of security tokens by
financial institutions nationwide.
"The Security Tokens market is a natural extension of our
existing e-commerce and global supply chain solutions," says
Doug Brittin, V.P. Global Sales and Marketing. "We have been
working with serialization and flashing smartcards for our
customers for a number of years, and have been able to
quickly deploy a comprehensive, secure delivery and
distribution program for this new market demand."
With over 25 years of experience in supply chain management,
GlobalWare offers an efficient and accurate means of
distributing serialized security tokens to customers of
financial institutions and e-commerce organizations.
GlobalWare's Security Token Program captures the serial
number of each device and links it to the recipient name and
address as it ships to the customer. With its comprehensive
suite of additional services, such as flashing or loading
proprietary software onto the device prior to shipment so
the token arrives ready to use, on-demand print capabilities
and packaging design expertise, GlobalWare offers a complete
service supply chain solution.
