Authentication on Internet
The e-business revolution has taken off, and companies are looking
to provide the most secure and efficient e-commerce capabilities.
Companies looking to become proficient in e-commerce want to automate
the business process that will bring them closer to their customers
and make supplier interactions more efficient such as in an Supply
chain Management., Net Banking, MIS etc..
The only constraint of e-commerce is the security issue. A strong
authentication is required when suppliers and customers are doing
transaction on Internet. The need for such strong authentication
was seen by WYSE and thus eSentry product came into existence
eSentry .
eSentry is a security device over the Web, for effective access
control. It fits on the parallel or USB port, and requires no
special equipments other than the PC itself to function. Being
very easy to integrate with the application, you simply have to
implement the API calls provided with eSentry into your WEB application.
And build your unique mechanism in order to determine the degree
of control allowed to your end user.
eSentry- a security device built for failsafe two factor authentication
over the Internet for effective access control. eSentry can be
used with the web application wherever strong authentication is
required. For e.g. in Net-Banking, the user could be given a eSentry
and username /password. This would authenticate the user logging
to Internet. With advanced features of eSentry, apart from authentication,
you can track your end users' identity, usage time, or any other
information you decide. You can also remotely update parameters
of your clients' usage such as renewals etc.
