Today's "extended enterprise" business model requires that you expand your traditional perimeter to allow customers, partners, suppliers and employees (both remote and local) to access business-critical applications and information. This model helps improve customer/citizen service and relationships; increase employee productivity; enable better business decisions; and improve the efficiency and productivity of your mobile workforce.
As your organization adopts the extended enterprise model and opens up your business-critical applications and data, you likely need to revisit your existing security practices.
Identity Driven Security: Are You Currently Secure?
To meet the requirement for identity driven security, you have developed corporate directories and databases to manage users, and have implemented VPNs and web portals to provide access. But how are they secured? Our experience shows that they are often only secured using simple static passwords.
There is growing recognition within corporate IT organizations that static passwords are vulnerable to misuse and attack and that using static passwords alone for authentication is no longer sufficient. Regulators are taking notice as well, with some mandates now requiring use of stronger authentication.
Verizon's CorporateID services enable you to easily provision all your users, whether they are local or remote employees, partners, contractors or customers with certificates and/or one-time-password authentication tokens, to prove identity and secure the exchange of information.
Whether your users access your network from a desktop, a PDA or a remote access connection, you need to select the method of authentication that provides your ideal mix of ease-of-use and security. Verizon CorporateID services offer two of the most widely deployed and cost-effective methods of authentication, PKI digital certificates and RSA SecurID One-Time Password authenticators. Verizon's Managed Services for RSA SecurID and Managed PKI Certificate Services enable you to choose your most suitable authentication method, along with the best form factor(s), including hardware tokens, software, smartcards and smartphones to best meet your business and technology requirements.
