About the ASAS® System
The Authenex® Strong Authentication System (ASAS®) is the most advanced, cost-effective and easy to administer two factor authentication system available. It enables organizations of all sizes to use two factor authentication to provide secure LAN access, secure VPN access, secure Web access and secure Outlook Web Access (OWA) email access. Organizations that have deployed the ASAS® System know that ASAS® two factor authentication allows access to only authorized users, by requiring them to authenticate the same way an ATM does – with something they have (in this case, a small token) and something they know (a password/PIN). Anyone who can't authenticate, doesn't get access.

But the ASAS® System provides more than just two factor authentication. Through the use of Authenex A-Key® tokens, ACert™ Software and My A-Key™ Software, the ASAS® System also helps an organization's users:

All data stored on these tokens is encrypted and the token itself is password- and brute force- protected.

The ASAS® System is available to and installed in organizations of all sizes, from Fortune 100 companies to small businesses. Because it uses RADIUS and TCP/IP protocols, the ASAS® System can easily integrate into any network environment. The ASAS® System is also VPN and firewall interoperable, and supports ODBC- providing networks with an efficient two-factor authentication system that integrates easily with an existing security infrastructure.

The ASAS® System is compatible with the world's most popular Remote Firewall and VPN solutions, including Check Point, Cisco, Nortel, and Microsoft RRAS, as well as Citrix and MetaInfo (Meta IP DHCP services).

ASAS® System administration is performed through a versatile web application called the Web Management Console (WMC). The WMC requires very little disk space, Java, and a web browser. With these minimal requirements, nearly anyone can perform all ASAS® System administration tasks: managing users, A-Key tokens, and user groups, as well as administer the ASAS® Server itself.

About ACert™ Software
ACert™ software is an Authenex product that can be pre-installed on A-Key® tokens, enabling A-Key® token users to securely generate, store, and use digital X.509 certificates.

About My A-Key™ Software
My A-Key™ software can be pre-installed on A-Key™ tokens, enabling them to automatically store passwords and user IDs to secure networks and Web sites in its encrypted storage area. Without anyone seeing the user names or passwords, My A-Key™ software can automatically log users in to Exchange servers, company intranets and portals, Web sites, ftp servers, VPNs, IM etc. My A-Key™ software leaves no footprint and no keystroke to record in a key log when it logs users in.
