Veridium,
a leader in strong authentication solutions using biometrics instead of
passwords and tokens, today announced the availability of the Veridium
Authenticator App, an enterprise-ready solution enabling a
cost-efficient, convenient and more secure multi-factor authentication
process. The app is now available for download on any iOS and Android
smartphone.
Organizations across the globe continue to use cumbersome and
ineffective authentication methods like passwords and tokens, which
continue to be a weak link in enterprise security. Understanding these
pain points, the Veridium Authenticator App enables organizations to
capture and authenticate biometrics from face, native fingerprint and 4
Fingers TouchlessID, all on their mobile device while eliminating
the need for passwords and tokens. With the Veridium Authenticator App,
organizations benefit from a frictionless solution for end users, while
increasing productivity by reducing calls to the help desk and lost time
due to password resets or lost or damaged tokens.
"Enterprises consider two key factors when seeking a new security
solution: ease-of-use and the dangers of overspending," said Todd
Shollenbarger, Chief Global Strategist of Veridium. "There is an
industry need for strong authentication with simplicity without breaking
the bank. Our Authenticator App provides customers all the security
benefits in one solution, lowering total cost of ownership over
traditional 2FA solutions all while making security a much more
convenient process for IT and end users alike."
