IntraLinks Security Architect Mushegh Hakhinian to Speak at the RSA Conference in San Francisco
Hakhinian to provide key insights on implementing multi-factor authentication during his presentation on February 17
NEW YORK, Jan. 31, 2011 - IntraLinks, a leading provider of critical information exchange solutions, today announced that Mushegh Hakhinian, security architect, will share his expertise on multi-factor authentication at the RSA Conference in San Francisco on February 17. Hakhinian is giving a presentation on "Strong Authentication for Online Applications: Building it Right", which provides an overview on where and how to implement multi-factor authentication. Hakhinian is responsible for ensuring that IntraLinks' industry-leading Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform enables companies to securely exchange information outside the firewall.
"I look forward to providing RSA Conference attendees with my observations on how to introduce multi-factor authentication into web applications and best practices for evaluating available vendor implementations," said Mushegh Hakhinian, security architect, IntraLinks. "IntraLinks is renowned for its commitment to strong security and I hope that my presentation will help other people to implement user friendly and economically viable multi-factor authentication solutions for their companies."
Related to the presentation, IntraLinks recently enhanced its two-factor authentication feature, providing additional security assurances for customers and users. The key upgrade enables custom authentication rules to be created for a user's exchange. For example, customers can allow an exchange to be available only on the days that a user's company is open for business, or limit access for individual users to specific IP addresses.
Other relevant security accomplishments for IntraLinks include:
o 10 consecutive years of getting SAS 70 Type II certification, an
internationally recognized standard developed by the American Institute
of Certified Public Accountants
o Successfully completed 95 security assessments and evaluations by
customers and independent auditors
o Joined Cloud Security Alliance's Subject Matter Expert Board, working
with other SaaS leaders to promote best practices for security of cloud
computing
o Enhanced document locking and protection to provide additional
safeguards around restricting document printing, forwarding and saving,
as well as enabling watermark security
o Partnered with Ping Identity to implement single sign-on to authenticate
each user so they can securely access their exchanges without needing to
remember multiple login credentials
