How to create a safe online Environment without compromising on User Convenience

These days, web application owners benefit from the fact that the world has moved online. People worldwide send out e-mails from their e-mail account(s), keep in contact with friends through social network accounts, perform payments with their online banking account and buy products online…. Because of the success of online services, they are becoming attractive targets to hackers. Today, most accounts are secured with static passwords, but considering the information people store online, static passwords are not enough anymore. Customers demand higher security. It is evident that when those static passwords are intercepted, consequences could be disastrous. The question now is how to keep the valuable information contained within these applications safe from virtual villains? How to create a safe online environment without compromising on user-convenience? Strong cloud-based authentication would be a perfect solution. During this presentation, Kurt Berghs will present how VASCO customers have implemented an online authentication platform to secure their online application. He will show the benefits (high security, easy implementation, cost reduction…) of this consumer-friendly solution based on their experiences.
