Strong Authentication for Solaris using Smart Cards

For organizations looking to protect workstations from unauthorized usage, ActivIdentity Strong Authentication for Solaris™ replaces passwords with smart cards. Users identify themselves through two-factor autentication, providing considerably more security over a secret password. ActivIdentity ActivClient provides the smart card middleware services enabling the usage of smart cards on Solaris Desktops, and supports both Solaris SPARC and x86 architectures. ActivClient is also available for Microsoft Windows® and Linux desktops as well, for heterogenous desktop protection across the enterprise.

Smart Card deployments can take advantage of additional security services in the future, including enabling digital signatures in email, documents and forms.
