The DigitalPersona Pro fingerprint identity solution enables deployment of strong passwords, secure communications, multi-factor authentication and transaction accountability for enterprises. With fingerprint readers becoming commonplace on enterprise notebooks, fingerprints can be used as the gatekeeper for access to enterprise data, applications and networks. A fingerprint solves security problems, such as social engineering attacks, which other credentials like passwords or tokens cannot. However, to realize such benefit, it cannot be left to each and every user to discover and configure fingerprint software and settings on their own. Security policies need to be centralized. A client-only solution for personal data protection is not enough if you need to protect enterprise data. IT managers in large and small companies alike need tools to enforce and audit authentication policies across the entire network and all applications. Only through implementation of a consistent policy can one lower training and support costs, maintain high security, and provide audit logs to prove compliance.
DigitalPersona Pro for Active Directory is designed from the ground up as an enterprise client/server solution, focused on the needs of the IT manager and business stakeholders. Pro integrates seamlessly into the enterprise Active Directory infrastructure to automate processes and controls for managing group policies for users and applications, and to ensure adherence to strong IT policies for compliance and auditing needs. Fingerprint authentication can easily be added without modifying applications and reduces helpdesk burdens associated with provisioning and supporting forgotten passwords. Strong authentication policies can now be quickly and easily deployed with a single consistent identity protection system that aligns user privieges with business security needs.
COMPONENTI PRO
I componenti principali di DigitalPersona Pro includono:
- Pro Server — gestisce con Active Directory le credenziali di autenticazione dell’utente per l’accesso alla rete ed alle applicazioni.
- Pro Workstation — installato su pc desktop o portatili per l’autenticazione utente utilizzando credenziali memorizzate localmente o su server, in base alle singole esigenze.
- Pro Kiosk — progettato per l’uso sicuro di account condivisi su pc multi utente, permettendo lo scambio veloce tra dipendenti in ospedali, negozi o aziende di produzione.
- Pro SDK — estende le soluzioni Pro ad applicazioni back-office personalizzate o a sistemi front office. Gli sviluppatori possono sfruttare la sicurezza di DigitalPersona Pro con la gestione credenziali in Active Directory, per consentire l’accesso tramite impronta digitale alle proprie applicazioni.
Moduli aggiuntivi:
- Privacy Manager Pro — un’applicazione add-on che permette di firmare digitalmente e criptare messaggi di IM, messaggi di posta elettronica con Microsoft Outlook, e documenti Microsoft Office per aggiungere sicurezza nelle comunicazioni e nei processi lavorativi. Privacy Manager Pro garantisce che l’accesso a dati sensibili, fermi o in movimento, sia permesso solo alle persone autorizzate.
