WiKID Strong Authentication System

The WiKID Strong Authentication System is a highly scalable, secure two-factor authentication system consisting of a server, a token client, and network clients that connect a service such as a VPN or Web page to the WiKID server to validate one-time passcodes. The user enters their PIN into the token client, where it is encrypted and sent to the server. If the PIN is correct, the encryption valid, and account active, the one-time passcode is generated, encrypted, and returned to the user. It is simple to implement and maintain, allows users to be validated automatically, requires no hardware tokens, has a simple API for application support via a COM object and Java component, supports multiple domains, and supports replication for fault tolerance and scalability.
