Digital certificates provide a more robust way to authenticate users to websites than usernames and passwords. With certificates, users need both the certificate and a password to access a site, increasing security. Passwords are never sent over the web, and administrators do not have access to user passwords. Certificates also allow users to digitally sign documents and access multiple sites with a single identity. Implementing certificates involves obtaining certificates from a certificate authority and configuring web servers and applications to support certificate-based authentication.

Meeting Mobile and BYOD Security ChallengesSymantec
This white paper is written for enterprise executives who wish to understand what digital certificates are and why they are invaluable for mobile and Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) security on wired and wireless networks. The paper also illustrates the benefits of adopting Symantec Managed PKI Service and provides real-world use cases.
No matter what size of company you’re at, you probably have a work phone. It might not have been given to you by your company, but you use it for work in one way or another. That means there is company data on your phone. Why do companies need a solution that secures the apps rather than the device – so employees can have the freedom and flexibility they need to get their work done.

Hybrid Integration is the concept of federated on-premises and cloud-based integration combined with the improved interoperability of existing and new middleware silos of application, business-to-business (B2B), business process management (BPM), business events, business rules, and data integration.
Enterprise Application Integration TechnologiesPeter R. Egli
Overview of Enterprise Application Integration Technologies.
Enterprise Application Integration, or EAI in short, aims at integrating different applications into an IT application landscape. Traditionally, EAI was understood as using the same communication infrastructure by all applications without service-orientation in mind. This meant that the benefits of a shared infrastructure were limited while driving up costs through additional integration platforms.
Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) brought a new paradigm by decomposing applications into reusable and shareable services. Service orientation requires careful design of services. A hierarchic scheme of services may help to define a suitable service decomposition.
While SOA is technically based on big web service technologies, namely SOAP, WSDL and BPEL, WOA or Web Oriented Architecture stands for the lightweight service paradigm. WOA makes use of REST-based technologies like JSON and HTTP.
In many cases, an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is used as an infrastructure element to achieve the technical integration of the services. The ESB core functions like message routing, filtering and transformation provide the mediation services required to integrate heterogeneous application landscapes.

PortalGuard’s Flexible Two-factor Authentication options are designed as strong authentication methods for securing web applications. PortalGuard leverages a one-time password (OTP) as a factor to further prove a user's identity. The OTP can be delivered via SMS, email, printer, and transparent token. Configurable by user, group or application this is a cost effective approach to stronger authentication security.

Multifactor authenticationMultifactor authentication or MFA .docxgilpinleeanna
Multifactor authentication
Multifactor authentication or MFA is a security system that requires more than on method of authentication from independent categories of credentials to verify the user’s identity for a login or other transaction.
Multifactor authentication combines two or more independent credentials: what the user knows like a password, what the user has the security token and what the user is like biometric verification. The goal of multifactor authentication is to create a layer of defense and make it more difficult for an unauthorized person to access a some like a physical location, network or database, or a computing device. If one of the factor is compromised, an attacker still needs at least one more barrier to breach before successfully breaking into the target.
Multifactor authentication cont…
Typical MFA scenarios include:
Swiping a card and entering a PIN.
Logging into a website and being requested to enter an additional one-time password OTP that the website’s authentication server sends to the requester’s phone, email address, or any other form.
Downloading a VPN client with a valid digital certificate and logging into the VPN before being granted access to a network.
Swiping a card, scanning a fingerprint and answering a security question
Attaching a USB hardware token to a Desktop that generates a one-time passcode and using the one-time passcode to log into a VPN client.
RSA Token/Symantec VIP Access
RSA token or security token is a two-factor authentication technology that is used to protect network resources. The authentication is based on two factors. The two factors are first something you know like your password or pin and the second factor is something you have the authenticator (RSA Token). The code that RSA Token produces changes every 60 seconds as an added form of security.
Symantec VIP Access is a software that protects your online accounts and transactions. The VIP credential provides a dynamic security code that you can use in addition to your user name and password for safe and secure account access. The code that VIP Access produces changes every 30 seconds as an added form of security.
How RSA Token/VIP software work
The way RSA Token and the VIP software work is when a user attempts to access a protected resource, he or she is prompted for a unique code. The code is a combination of their user’s password or pin and the code that is displayed on the authenticator token or VIP application at the time of logging in.
The user ID and pass code are intercepted by the RSA Authentication Agent and presented to the RSA Authentication Manager software which validates the pass code. The RSA SecurID system computes what number the token is supposed to be showing at that moment in time, checks it against what the user entered, and makes the decision to allow or deny access. This is also the case with the VIP software.

E-Lock AdaptAuth is an AI-powered, Adaptive, Multi-factor Authentication solution that provides an advanced layer of protection in the form of Adaptive MFA. Adaptive authentication utilizes information such as IP addresses, geo-locations, device signatures and user behavior patterns to assess the risk and accordingly adapts the authentication flow.This is achieved by building a risk profile for every user by analyzing past authentication attempts and behavioral patterns. The extent of deviation from such patterns invokes additional MFA factors until desired levels of identity assurance are achieved.
Capabilities provided by AdaptAuth:
Basic Authentication
Two-factor authentication- App based OTP, Email/SMS OTP, Digital Certificate, Fingerprint, FIDO2 authentication
Multi-factor Authentication

3. This article describes the use of Digital Certificates as a
mechanism for strongly authenticating users to web sites
where identity information is required. Before the advent
of digital certificates the only option for authenticating
users to a site was to assign a username and password.
Digital certificates on the other hand provide for much
more robust access control and have a number of benefits
over username and password.
5. Using username and password the process is generally as
follows: each time a user wishes to access a web service
the user navigates to the site and authenticate themselves
to the application using unique username and password.
This data is passed to the server (hopefully in an
encrypted form), the application looks up the username
and the password (or a representation of the password) in
some form of access control list and provided the
information matches the user is granted access.
7. * The username and password are passed over the web
(encrypted or unencrypted) with the typical security
concerns of interception.
8. * The systems administrator normally has unrestricted
access to all usernames and passwords with associated
security and liability concerns for the service provider
(especially with confidential data)
9. * The user needs to remember as many usernames and
passwords as are required by their applications leading to
inevitable support issues to recover lost access data
12. The user navigates to the website. Before allowing access
it checks the certificate against the access database. The
user enters the password locally to confirming their access
right to the certificate and is allowed to the website.
20. All major web servers support client authentication via
certificates. An SSL certificate on the web server (to
support https) enables configuration of client
authentication and only requires specification of the
access rights for each directory served by the web server.
Amend the web application to support client
authentication by certificates. If any code was developed
to handle user name and password, then the certificate
credentials can be looked up in an access control list in just
the same way. Client certificates are issued via a Public
Key Infrastructure (PKI) You can choose implement your
own or use the services of a Managed Service Provider
such as Diginus Ltd.
22. Once customers or employees have digital certificates, the
same certificates can be used to digitally sign email, PDF
and web forms and Microsoft Word documents. With a
few small steps a corporate website can be transformed
into the centre of a powerful web services infrastructure,
with single sign on to multiple web applications, signed
email and forms data exchange, all the time knowing
exactly who is accessing the resources and data.
