Strong Authentication and Public Key Infrastructure

Saturday, August 18th, 2007

As one of our main goals has always been the improvement of authentication security, SSOCircle is now offering Strong Authentication with X.509 Certificates and a PKI supporting automatic enrollment of Certificates. Using Certificate based authentication reduces the threat of Phishing ( a malicious site that pretends to be the login mask of someother and reads your password – no matter if it was encrypted over the wire or not ). With Certificate based LogIn there is no need to let your password travel over the network.
