Service Oriented Authentication Architecture - SOA²

Enterprises are challenged now more than ever to enable business by taking business processes online, to protect confidential and personal identifiable information (PII), to protect against identity-theft-related fraud, and to comply with regulations like SOX, HIPAA, FFIEC and PCI. These challenges call for strong data access controls, and strong access controls begin wih strong user authentication.

IdMlogic believes that Strong Authentication solutions should:

• Include a high-availability, scalable and extendable multi-factor authentication platform that is easy to integrate and that makes access easier as well as more secure
• Balance security and ease-of-use - with the right credentials
• Benefit, not burden operations through process automation
• Lower support costs and decrease helpdesk calls
• Deliver benefits quickly and support future requirements

IdMlogic’s SOA² is the foundation enabling us to rapidly deploy such scalable and flexible strong authentication solutions. Providing a secure, open platform supporting a wide range of authentication credentials, SOA² makes securing and protecting digital assets and identities quick and cost effective. With full self-registration, self-service and credential recovery and renewal, SOA² can actually lower operations costs while improving security and addressing regulatory requirements.

With a wide range of authentication methods to choose from, matching the right credentials to your specific user profiles is easy. Selecting non-invasive, low-cost and easy-to-use credentials for your customer portals, with full mobility for access anytime from any device, is critical to enabling your business online. Providing low cost alternatives to expensive token solutions, with full self-service recovery, can save you as much as 80% of your current cost and improve service levels for your endusers while decreasing helpdesk calls related to lost or damaged tokens. SOA² can even lower or completely eliminate helpdesk calls related to forgotten or expired passwords, providing even greater operational benefits and savings.
