With VIP 2 Factor Authentication (2FA), you get a proven technology that protects business data by requiring each user to provide not just a username and password, but also a unique one-time six-digit security code generated by a user's security credential. Even if an attacker steals a user's password, they cannot gain access to your company's VPN because they have no means of generating a valid one-time security code.

Traditional implementations of 2FA required purchasing costly separate servers and software, conducting extensive training, and building security expertise. By providing 2FA as a service integrated into Cisco SA500 Series, however, VIP drastically reduces your capital expenditures and minimizes ongoing investments in managing authentication and device lifecycles. In addition to cost savings, VIP offers:

Convenient choice of credentials: VIP supports a wide variety of credential options for generating one-time passwords for strong authentication, including:

VIP Security Cards
VIP Security Tokens
VIP Access for Mobile Phones

Now you can re-purpose any existing corporate or private credentials for more convenient and cost-effective strong authentication.

Ease of credential management: Managing the lifecycle of credentials can be time-consuming and expensive. VIP makes 2FA more affordable by taking care of every aspect of credential lifecycle management, including:
