Wave Virtual Smart Card 2.0 Protects Organizations With Stronger Security at Lower Cost - Seite 2

Virtual Smart Card 2.0 enables the enterprise to easily provision, manage and support virtual smart cards for its users. Virtual smart cards provide an attractive and convenient path to increased security over usernames and passwords without the added costs of managing physical smart cards and smart card readers. 

Wave Virtual Smart Card 2.0 gives IT the ability to:

• Remotely create and delete virtual smart cards
• Provide help desk-assisted recovery
• Configure PIN and card policies
• View the status of virtual smart cards and enrolled certificates
• Generate reports for compliance
• Support virtual smart cards on laptops, tablets and desktops with TPM 1.2 or TPM 2.0

"With Wave Virtual Smart Card 2.0, enterprises can avoid many of the headaches of traditional authentication technologies with the same security as using physical smart cards in a PKI environment," said Bill Solms, CEO of Wave. "Virtual smart cards are less expensive to manage, easier and faster to deploy and effectively address the problem of lost or stolen tokens."

"DMI has a long history working with Wave Systems to advance the state-of-the-art in IT security," said Jay Sunny Bajaj, president and CEO of DMI, a global leader in enterprise mobile solutions and Wave Solutions Partner. "Wave's new Virtual Smart Card 2.0 enables us to save our clients money, improve and future-proof their IT security, and enhance the user experience all at the same time."

Wave's virtual smart card solution can help organizations comply with key regulations such as PCI, HIPAA and FFIEC. Many of these regulations require organizations to implement two-factor authentication methods to verify users' identities when remotely connecting to a network.
