PINsafe version 3.6 ready for imminent release

Available from Refractiv, PINsafe is a secure, simple, multi-factor authentication solution which offers freedom from tokens. Based on patented technology and in use globally, PINsafe is flexible and cost-effective and provides solutions for the protection of websites, applications and VPNs.

With version 3.6, the following features have been added:

Multiple Security Strings per message

It is now possible to send multiple security strings within a single text message. At the time of authentication the user is shown which string to use to authenticate.

Animated TURing images

In order to provide increased resistance to malware attacks, it is now possible to animate the TURing, BUTTon and PATTern images.

In-built repository browser

PINsafe 3.6 now has an in-built repository browser that can view the contents of any LDAP based repository to which PINsafe is integrated. This speeds up initial configuration and subsequent fault analysis.

Agent/NAS authentication modes

It is now possible to configure Agents and NASs to only allow certain authentication modes, e.g. dual channel only.

Auto PIN-Reset

It is now possible to automatically resend a user a new PIN when their PIN expires, rather than locking the account.

Idle Status

Accounts that are locked because the user has been idle are now distinguishable from accounts that are locked for other reasons.

Account Expiry

It is now possible to set expiry dates on accounts in the XML repository.
