With the threat of online fraud on the rise, governments, municipalities and public sector agencies know that they need to implement a highly secure solution to ensure strong authentication, and the integrity of the usage of their networks. SolidPass™, a two-factor authentication (2FA) security token helps governments and municipalities take control of access to their internal networks and authenticate services to their citizens.

Benefits of the SolidPass Mobile Security Token

Users are more likely to recognize the loss of their mobile phone before they recognize the loss of a hardware token. This means that they are also more likely to recover a misplaced mobile phone before finding a lost hardware token. As a result mobile phones have become a more reliable deployment method than hardware tokens. Essentially, the mobile security token is a more secure, more convenient and more cost-effective form of authentication than hardware tokens currently on the market.

Regulatory Compliance

Regulatory requirements are mandating government agencies to adopt stronger authentication methods and to secure access to data systems and applications. Static username/password identity management no longer provide enough security to authenticate users accurately. This has led to adopting two-factor authentication systems. In addition to non-compliance, organizations that continue to use static username/passwords face numerous problems ranging from brute force attacks, dictionary attacks, guessing and social engineering.

Municipalities and government agencies can use SolidPass to:

• Allow people to pay fees, services, and municipal taxes securely online.
• Protect sensitive information and data sent online by employees.
• Enable mobility and flexibility for workers, staff and citizens through making mobile transactions secure.
