Better secured, with a personal flare, a new hardware-based security key is expanding the boundaries for hardware-software secured relations. Not to mention the solution’s splendid ability to operate in remote access and communication offline scenarios due to a very unique feature. Especially tailored to the needs of the IT applications and web-based services, this new plug & play solution is the best option for better, safer management and the better secured expansion of Web-based activities.
Who wants to bring a Shield to a tech-fight? The wonderful range of FIDO2-based plug and play memory solutions has just been upgraded and expanded. The brand new plug and play memory USB solution, dubbed “iShield Key Pro” by memory virtuoso Swissbit, has just been released. Furthermore, the solution supports Hash-Based-One-Time-Password (HOTP), which gives the user the option to operate while offline and in remote access situations when FIDO2 is not available.
Especially tailored for the needs of enterprise IT applications and secured developments in web-based services, this physical “technological armor” for your web-based aspirations is probably the best protection in the field. Packaged in a robust, waterproof, industrial-grade plastic casing, with this latest step in hardware-software protection you can worry less about operational threats. Some of the aforementioned threats include phishing, social engineering or cyber takeovers or thefts online identities or accounts.
Thus, the interwoven genius of a Near Field Communication (NFC) interface, with a USB type-A portable plug and play logging apparatus to boot is certainly hard to penetrate. Last but not least, aside from the regular FIDO2-based solution, further protection is added by the implementation of a Personal Identity Verification (PIV) technology to ensure personal credential storage capability. Labelled as a “standard” for the industrial and the state-affiliated sectors alike, this feature uses Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), as well as the PKCS #11 cryptographic standard, to store digital certificates and private keys.
